LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
A RETURNED SOLDIER'S CLAIM
Sir— I have rend Mr. I'airchild's "grouse" at his alleged ill-treatment by tlio Defence Minister, and "Digger's" fol-low-on thereto. I wish to say this: If the statements in general in these, two letters are on a par with that re the loss through fire, then Mr. Fail-child's complaints aro most certainly unworthy of notice. It ia this sort of thing that does the returned soliders more harm than good. The reasonable returned soldier asks for nothing more than fair treatment at the hands of the Government; and where Hie Government has failed the U.S.A. steps iu, and experience lias shown that this is the correct' method to adopt. Rushing into print and making more or less partisan and biased statements and slanging of.Min. istera only brings the returned soldiers into disrepute.—l am, etc., ANOTHER DIGGER. .
