RETURNED SOLDIERS
ANOTHER ORGANISATION
AUCKLAND, Mar. 25. "1 think it is altogether wrong that another body should be formed to deal with sick and wounded soldiers from overseas." said the chairman of the Auckland Hospital Board (Mr A. J. Moodv) when the board considered an application from the Second New Zealand Expeditionary Force ' Association for permission to send- representatives to visit returned' servicemen iu hospital. • , , . Mr Moody said they already had the Returned Services' Association, and there was going to be dual control. He had a suspicion that there was a suggestion of political matters coming into this. He thought it would be wrong to open the door of the hospital to this association. , . Mr J. Guiniven said the association had received official recognition, and he thought there was a working arrangement between it and the B.S.AConsideration was deterred till the R.S.A. had been approached.
