Abbott To Re-consider Discharge Centre

OTTAWA. Oct. N — Chester McLure (PC - Queen's) complained in the Commons to-, night about “the unfair, the unjust, I was almost going to say shameful treatment- meted oul: to the service-men oi my Prov- ince by the Department of Na.- tlonal Defence."

The reason ior his complain; was that there was no discharge depot in the Island. Serviceman had to get their discharge at Hal- ifax. In enllstments Prince Ed- ward Island stood high among the brovlnces.

" would seem that mv Prov- ince was big enough to lead Can- ada in (Enlistments but not enough to be permitted a dis- charge centre," said Mr. McLurc,

He described reasons given by the Department for not setting up a depot at Charlottetown as “c-lrlldisir." These were that ad- vantages to men in having a dis-l Charge centre on the Island would. not ouzvxelgh advantages of usingl the fully-equipped centre at Hali- fax and that the overhead cost‘ would not be justified,

The Department had suddenlyl become penurious, trying to save a few dollars by forcing P. E. I. veterans to "coo1 their heels" for days and weeks mound M. D. 6 (Halifax).

He wondered if it was the ad- vantage of the returned men which was being considered or the ad- vuniulre of some of "the Govern- lnEnFs political friends in Hull- fhx,” where money was spent for clothing, furnishings and other things.

Mr. McLure asked Defence Min- istegA-bbott to go into the ques- tion aird take the Prince Edward Island members lmo consultation.
