DISABLED SOLDIERS’ TRAINING LEAGUE
The Disabled Servicemen’s Re-estab-lishment League now had nine shops throughout New Zealand, and was assisting as far as possible with funds for disabled servicemen, said Colonel J. Murphy, in an address on the league’s work to the annual conference of the New Zealand War Amputees’ Association yesterday. The sales turnover last year had been £218,000 he said.
“The league has become a large business,” said Colonel Murphy. “If anything should happen in the future—l hope it will not—the league is established to take on the training of disabled servicemen in any other war.”
