NOT "FEROCIOUS"
APPEAL BOARD MEMBERS
(P.A.) AUCKLAND, This Day. An echo of the reported statement made by Mr. J. A. Lee in* the House of Representatives on Friday was heard at a sitting of the No. 1 Armed Forces Appeal Board when the chairman, Mr. Orr Walker, S.M., asked an appellant if he found any member of the board "ferocious." The appellant replied that he did not. Mr. Orr Walker said he would be pleased to bring up the matter of "gross misrepresentation made by a public man against a member of the board." Mr. Lee was reported to have said so many people seemed to have been appointed to tribunals who had not been soldiers in the last war, and in Auckland the Labour representative on the Tribunal seemed to have taken up a most ferocious attitude towards conscientious objectors.
