STATE HOUSES
SERVICEMEN'S PRIORITY
Representations have been made to the Government by the N.Z.R.S.A. asking that the preference in respect of the letting of State rental houses to exservicemen should be raised from 50 per cent, to 75 per cent, of the units available. The preference now being exercised is applied by the State Advances Corporation acting on the recommendation of the various rehabilitation committees and the priority is being granted in accordance with the following categories:—(a) Servicemen returned to New Zealand and placed on home defence; (b) servicemen returned to New Zealand for duty as instructors, etc.; (c) widows of servicemen killed overseas or who die overseas or subsequent to return to New Zealand; (d) wives of servicemen who are prisoners of war. The N.Z.R.S.A. has asked ,that a further category be added so as to include the wives of men serving overseas.
