"Anoth_er very important change has been made recently in n- sion administration in cases w ere the ex-service man has suffered from pleurisy with effusion during his service. Too often we have found that such men, if forced to get out to work too soon by rea- son of having no funds to support their families fall easy victims to tuberculosis.

"The Canadian Legion in this Provice assumed responsibility during last spring for the raising of $5000.00 for aid to starving Rus- sian civilians and they entered into the task with such enthusiasm that well over $7,000.00 was sent for- ward to the Head Office in Tor- onto.

"Resolutions at Legion

The following report of the an- nual conventlon of the Provincial Command, Canadian Legion, is cﬁintinued from yesterday's Cuar-

an:

RESOLUTION S

Resolutions were passed by the convention expressing loyalty to their Melcsties the Kins and Queen Governor General of Canada and the Lieutenant Governor; greetings to Prince Edward Islanders in the fighting forces of the Empire; to the Dominion President, Comarede Alex Walker; congratulations to Mayor General W. W. Foster, D. 5.0., former Dominion president, on his promotion to the rank oi Major General; and appreciation t.o the Ladies Auxiliary. It I100 passed the following resolutions:

Pensions

Discharge Depot fer P.I.I.

Requcstlnz the Department of National Defence to make arrange- ments so that Service Men and Women from this Province may receive their discharge from the Army at Charlottetown. Men to be discharged are at present retained

women servl

unfaithful and us. ngements must be rnade by them to have their families cared for. In all the other Provinces of Canada there is s Provincial Court with jurisdiction over matrimonial affairs but in this Province the Court, composed of the Lieutenant-Governor and the Executive Council has not function- ed for over seventy-five years. The Province Q1 Quebec has novincisl Courts having power to annul marriages. The only remedy open to service men from this Province is to ap ly to the Senate when the matr onial union has been broken by adulterous conduct on the Dart of the wife at home while the men on active service from sll the other Provinces can apply to their Provincial Courts. The ex- pense attendant on an application to the Senate is entirely beyond the means of a man drawing ser- vice pay. ,

REOLVED therefore that these

Also the men being discharged would be enabled to remain at home until their document tion had been completed.
