LOST HIS BUSINESS
SOLDIER IN CAMP The need for protecting and safeguarding the men of the armed forces who, in civilian life, wore engaged in trades was emphasised at a eonfer- ■ once of delegates from branches of the Tt.H.A. in Hawke’s Hay. It; was slated that in AVaiiniknrau a. liairdressor f and tobacconist had closed his business prior lo entering, into camp. While he ’ was in the armed forces another man started in business in the premises he had .vacated. The position has now arisen that, the man had been regraded 111. The man-power officer had ruled that there were already enough hairdressers and tobacconists in the town fU id, as a consequence, the anno authorities had taken up the attitude that he would only be released from the army if ho got a job as a hairdresser’s assistant elsewhere.
The whole thing was unfair, it war contended, more especially in this case, where a man, who was married, had established his own homo in W'aipukurau. The subject is to be pursued at the Dnnnevirkc conference.
