FREE TREATMENT.
FOR RETURNED SOLDIERS. Per Press Association. CHRISTCHURCH, Sept. 19. Free medical service has now been arranged for those returned soldiers who, while not eligible for the war disability pension, can trace the cause of their failing health up to the present time back to active service. ( The arrangement, which has been made between the Christchurch ■ Returned Soldiers’ Association and a large proportion of the medical men of the city, comes into effect immediately. It is stipulated that any soldier availing himself of the free medical service shall undertake to pay for all or any part of the medical services rendered if he receives direct financial benefit either by being subsequently granted a pension, through having an existing pension increased, or through a grant from a fund operating in the interests of the distressed soldier.
