SOLDIERS - LIABILITIES.
TO THE EDiTOK. •^ir, —Do the regulations providing for tho granting of special relief to anon of the New Zealand Forces apply to married men only? If so. I fail to sec, if married men without a family receive it, why a single man who Iras built a home, and has his aged, widowed mother to keep, should not have it also. Then, again, a man has to put his case before a. board before ho can receive this relief. How does a man get on who requires tlris assistance, but did not lodge an appeal before, the *\ct came into force? I find myself in the above position. I have been drawn in the ballot, but did not appeal because I considered it my duty to go when called up, yet I have interest and instalments, rates, insurance, etc., to meet. —I am, etc., Mother’s Support. January 29.
