THE SECOND DIVISION.
A REASONABLE REQUEST,
Press Association Telegram
CHRISTCHURCH, Jan, 15. A deputation of Second Division men interviewed Mr. Massey, asking for a guarantee that any men'sent to camp should be medically fit. They pointed out the great hardship for a reservist to dispose of his business, perhaps, and when he got to camp to be turned down as unfit. Mr. Massey said that he could say at once that he would be very glad to lay the request before the Cabinet. It was the desire of the Government that every possible care should be taken to avoid hardship to reservists, and such care had been and would be taken.
