EX-SOLDIER'S GRIEVANCE
TO THI EDITOR. Sir, — In reference _to _ your articles about reinforcements joining the colours, I should like to bring my case before the public. I was very patriotic when I joined the -force. I have been three months in camp, and in the course of my training I received an injury to my back through which I was dieoharged. Ever since I have, been looking for employment. I find that nobody wants you now that you have been passed out as medically unfit., I really think there should be something done. I might say that youths whom I come in contact with axo vary patriotic, but if they happen to be plaoed in the same position as myself they will look at it in quite a different way. — I km, etc, G.F.S. 25th May, 1915. [If our correspondent received any injury incapacitating him as he alleges, he has a claim on the Pensions Board. It is his own fault 'if he has not preferred it.]
