RETURNED SOLDIERS
WAIKATO ASSOCIATION [from our own correspondent] HAMILTON. Wednesday Advice was received at a meeting of the executive of the Waikato Returned Soldiers' Association that • General Sir Alexander Godley would probably visit Hamilton 011 February 17 or 18. It was decided to try to arrange a quarterly general meeting to coincide with his visit.
The invitation of the Hamilton Borough Council to provide a guard of honour on the occasion of the visit of the Duke of Gloucester was accepted. and Mr. G. S. Clark was appointed to take charge of the parade. The meeting expressed strong disapproval of unfit and partially disabled men being put on sustenance at a rate which it was considered was insufficient to allow them to live. It was also decided that the secretary should write to headquarters concerning the matter, and that a copy of the i-esolution should he forwarded to neighbouring associations.
