AN IMPORTANT ASPECT.
The question has been raised as it always is raised when appeals for public support are made, as to whether the Government should not undertake the responsibility of providing for the requirements of the wounded, without leaving this work to the Red Cross Society (states the Auckland Herald). This question has been answered by Sir Frederick Treves, who says that the soldier regards what the War Office gives him as his right, while the work of the Red Cross is to him an ex-
pression of gracious sympathy, a visible token that the people of the homeland are doing what they can to make some personal return for the great sacrifices he is making for them.
