JYlalieno, which was nearing England, would bring the remaining cot cases and seriously ill men. These two hospital ships would then have completed their great work of mercy. The first draft of fit and well men were leaving for New Zealand;, probably on Friday or Saturday. At. the time of the signing of the German armistice the New ..Zealand Division was the only division at- the front which had. remained •■up to its hill, strength. There was not an English, French, German or any other division which had not been "reduced. He admitted that the repatriation .scheme wa-s not perfect.
