AN EMPLOYER’S COMPLAINT.
[To The Editor Stratfokd Post.] Sir, —People are beginning to wonder. when the Defence expenditure is going to climb down instead of going higher every day. There will be no reduction while they continue in the foot manner that is now taking place. What do you think of -this: A few boys out of the Cadets are taken to JHawera every night, fares paid there and back, also put up at an hotel (surely there are boarding houses where boys of 15 and 16 could be accommodated instead of an hotel), and they are being put through a course of drill to suit them as non-coms. It may be all right, but the tax on employers what with camps, extra drills, etc., savors of militarism run mad.—l am, etc.,
