There ivas a good, attendance of members of the Soldiers' Mothers' League and others who had not yet joined that organisation, at tho Esperanto Hail last evening. Lady Stout (president) occupied tho chair.
Among tho matters discussed at the meeting was the question as to whether the league should continue its present form of organisation or not. It was decided that there was overy need of its continued existence, and tho league will bo known, as in the past, as tho Soldiers' Mothers' League. Lady Stout addressed the gathering at some length and tho following resolutions were brought forward and passed unanimously:—
(1) "That tho first consideration of the Mothers' League be given to the welfare of the returned soldiers."
(2) "That the Government be asked to protect our returned soldiers by closing tho hotels on tho day of their arrival, when indiscreet friends, many times lead them into temptation which injures them morally aw] physically."
The meeting also decided to request the Government to remove a certain worker in England from all connection with our New Zealand Forces as her views and propaganda are, in their estimation, detrimental to the health and welfare of New Zealand soldiers."
