EX-SOLDIERS’ CLAIMS
A QUARTER’S OPERATIONS IN OTAGO. Dominion Special. Dunedin, November 15. Twelve meetings of the claims committee of the Otago Patriotic Association were held during the quarter ended October 31, 220 applications being dealt with. Twenty-four applications were declined, it being evident, after a full investigation, that the assistance required could not be granted. Forty-seven applications were received from ex-soldiers, the responsibility of various societies throughput the Dominion, and were dealt with in accordance with the wishes of the societies concerned. Grants totalling £3Bl ss. 3d. were made to sixtyfour applicants, and in fifty-five cases weekly allowances were authorised at a total expenditure of £648 10s. In three cases the conditions regarding repayment of loans were varied, at the request of the borrowers. During the quarter the sum of £195 was expended on cases not recognised as suffering as the result of war service.
