WAR PENSIONS
1 (To the Editor.) Sir, —I noticed in Wednesday's issue of your paper that Mr. Massey quoted the case of a private's wife who was granted a pension of £52 a year, instead of £65, because fche was earning £2 6s. a week and was to collect £300 insurance money. • He did not state that she was. employed temporarily, and now through ill-health is not earning auything, nor that her husband has only been roported "missing," so sho cannot draw the insurance but still has the premiums to pay, so it seems unfair that she should not havo the pension which by right is hers. —I am, etc., . ANXIETY.
