The following open letter from
the Ontario Provincial Command of
the G. W. V, A„ was forwarded to
Sir Thomas White, acting Premier of
'Canada, by Capt. Rev. C. E. Jeakins,
president, • to -day. Endorsed by tate
executive of the Ontario G. W. V. A.
and by the Brantford branch, it ap-
peals for further consideration of the
pension system and cities specific
grievances. It follows:
Brantford, Ont., Jan. 8, 1918
Sir Thus. White, K. C. M. G.
Acting Premier of Canada,
Ottawa, Can. •
Sir: -It Is obvious that the peopl
of the Dominion of Canada, with th
peoples of practically . the whol
world, are facing a period or trans!
tion from one age to another, -It i
the experience of all history," tin
these transition periods are full of
grave crises and far-reaching issues,
The period upon which we now enter
is fraught with unparalleled situa-
tionsrwhich will call for the best
qualities of heart, and mind, and
hand, of which sten are capable, and
which will need most wise leadership
and- careful action.
Not the least among the many
pressing problems facing the Domin-
ion of Canada is -That of the returned
soldier Upwards of four hundred
thousand of these men who have
"held a rendezvous with death," will
soon have returned to our shores. A
grateful people acclainmed them
when they left to tight for the free-
dom of the world. A grateful people
would still acclaim them as men who
have done their duty, and would
cheerfully support any legitimate
measure of recognition of the great
service these men have renderd to
the state. '
In the fortunes of war it has hap-
pe=ned that many returned men are
prevented by , disability through
wounds, ,etc., from providing suitable
support for their families. This fact
has been recognized by your govern-
ment, which has undertaken to. re-
imburse the soldier for any handicap
under which he returns to 1115 usual
calling. This is termed a "pension."
Further it• has happened that
many soldiers in giving their all
have left behind dependents without
any means of support save that pro-
vided' under the pension schenme.
Now, sir, it is Telt-and rightfully
so -that the pension awarded to a
returned soldier, or to the dependents
of the unreturning brave, is, at the
best, is some cases inadequate, in
view of what our soldiers have given
for Canada, and our cannon Chris-
tian civilization. But when an at-
tempt is made to
reduce these en-
signs, to cut them off entirely', and
emphatic protest were tirade against
such gross injustice.
It has come to our knowledge that
of late there* has been such reduc-
ion and cutting off of pensions, not
my of returned men, but of the de-
endents of those men who have paid
he supreme sacrifice.
I beg respectfully to draw your. ;at-
tention, as Acting Prince Minister, to
the following concrete cases:
Case 1-A soldier staving served in
the C. E. P. for two years and six
months, was returned to 'Canada,
having been shot through the lung,
and the lung practically gone. Ha
received a pension of $74.00 per
month. The pension this month,
and with scarcely any warning, has
been reduced to 519.00 per month,
Case 2 -
This man received injuries after
two years and four months service,
that two inches of bone had to be
taken from his leg. He received a
pension for himself, wife and three
children at the rate of $36.45 per
north. This has been reduced with
o warning to $9.12 per month. His
isability is not less, , but evert
reater, his other leg being weaker
n account of the extra and unusual

The following letter was written. by

as follows to his mother at 42 Rox-

Yesterday 1 had a most interesting
trip in the signal's car, We left
Mons about 10.30 a.m. and went via
Waterloo • to Brussels, where we
witnessed the magnificent reception
given King Albert by the city -his
first official visit since before the
war. 1 think it ivas, without excep-
tion, the finest sight 1 ever saw.
We had lunch on the famous field.
where Waterloo was fought 103 years
ago, and it is one of the most inter-
esting spbts I have seen.
The most amazing points about the
whole battle that struck one were
the extremely short distance and
the vast number of men involved,
AREA OF WATERLOO
(a) The whole area on which
Waterloo was fought was less than
twelve miles in circumference.
e (b) Wellington's front line was
e only three miles, along which 85,000
e troops were concentrated.

s waged a distance of only 925 yards

pressive, especially when contrasted
with some of the great battles of this

BUILT BY WOMEN
d -
Another place of the greatest in-
terest was the Mound, built entirely
by women. It took them seven years
to complete their task, receiving only
four -pence a day. The earth was all
carried from surrounding fields in
baskets, balanced on their heads. The
Mound resembles a conical slag

heap. It contains 165,000 cubi
metres of earth, covered by nic
green grass and surmounted by th
English „Lion, carved in stone, thi
being supported by ;a pedestal con
taining 3,000,000 bricks. There ar
300 steps up the side, and the vie
from tate top is' well worth th
climb-Quatre Bras, Waterloo an
Brussels- standing out clearly.
The town of Waterloo is •thre
utiles distant from the field, but th
hattle was given the name because it
was from there Wellington sent his
reports.
We went through the famous for-
est of Brussels to Bois de Boulogne.
We drove down the stain boulevard,
put our car in one of the big hotels
and walked down to the Petals de
Ville, where we stood talking. Both
of these buildings are very historic
and represent the finest elt archi e
t cture
in Brussels. There were very few
English ,officers in the. city and we
being Canadians, were the cynosure
of all eyes. .Bands were playing
everywhere, the favorite being "Tip-
perary." Everybody was dancing and
having the time of their lives. After
dinner i wentup to the second floor
of one of the largest restaurants,
where there were about 300 people.
The moment they recognized me as
a Canadian officer they gave three
ringing cheers, to which 1 responded
"Vive la Belgium."
