Diers League Repatriation Demands Emerge
The Diers League advocates repatriation measures including increased sustenance for returned soldiers, priority in purchasing output, and local committees to distribute grants. It calls for federal action to repatriate all ALF members wishing it, provision of railway concessions for hospital patients, and government support for industrial growth via tariffs. The resolution also asks two Teasmen nominees on each local committee and urges faster repatriation before accepting foreign discharged soldiers.
