When a soHdier is discharged the public are adverse to employing him, ’ ’ said Captain Simson at a meeting of returned soldiers. “It was a fact which -had to be faced. Business men were afraid that they would not get full value out of a soldier. But they were making money out of the war, and they should help the returned soldiers to get back to civil life, even if they had to put up with any small difficulties that went with them. ” “The proposed visit of the Finance Minister and myself to England is only postponed for a more suitable opportunity, ’ ’ said Mr. Massey the other night. “There is no particular difficulty with regard to administration. It is not intended to hold anything in the nature of an Imperial Conference at present, but the Imperial Government expressd its willingnss to confer with representatives of the Dominions on matters immediately connected with the war. The different Governments ion—are keeping in touch on all the more important questions at issue, but as soon as we can see our way clear Sir Joseph Ward and myself will* definitely accept the invitation, and pay our promised visit to London.”
