RETURNED SOLDIERS
PREFERENCE IN THE PUBLIC SERVICE. (Peb United Press Association.) WELLINGTON, September 15. With reference to the complaints made at the Returned Soldiers’ Association’s meeting that returned soldiers were not receiving preference of employment in the public service, the Assistant Public Service Commissioner states that the promise made that preference would be given had been adhered to. All that had been asked was that returned soldiers should have preference, other things being equal, and this undertaking had been exceeded to the extent of giving returned soldiers preference even when they were not in all respects as suitable as men who had not been to the front.
