Against Parliament -
This violation o£ the preference .of
returned mer!; granted by Parliament,
is no 'doubt in:the postal department:
at Ottawa, where Mr. Murphy is the en
head, therefore; responsible. I think I
sin correct in stating there are fifty or /U
more .postmasters for-' which tertific- /
ates of; appointment ,have been issued '■
by the civil service commission, but N
no action has been. taken to carry out
the act or law iii letting these returnr.-
;ed hien take over the 'offices."m
Aong' /
the offices effected is that of , Eras-
sels, Qnt., where Mr. C. R. Coultes,
who is a veteran ,and an amputation
case, received his appointment, which
1. -have seen, The certificate of ap- ®_
pointment was issiied by the .civil ■
service commission after Mr. Coultes
had complied with all requirements
under date of July asth;, 1922,` but he
has not been permitted to take over
/
the duties of the office for . reasons
unstated bythe post office official at al
Ottawa. The same thing applies to F,
Rushton, appointed to the office at al
Nakusp, B. C, ander date of July 26,
5922, to H. B. ` Wilson appointed to am
sub post office No. 1 at Kingston, date,
of August 2, and many other simiiiar
cases. One case dates away back as. /
follows: '; Major William T. Morrison,
whose appointment to the.post, office ■
at Alexandria, Ont., dates back. to Jan -
nary, r6, 192.2. I wrote to the post
master at Ottawa on July 28, 5922, in /
regards to Mr. Coultes' appointment ill
at Brussels and asked what the. delay: /
was as regards= Mr. Coultes taking :■
over his duties. The reply, dated /
August 3o, stated the Honorable Mr, ■
Murphy was absent from Ottawa ae,c1 ■
this would be broughtto his attention ■
on his return, but nothing doing up to
1 date.. I havewritten again, but this.
time no reply ,as yet. This should be
brought to the notice of all returned ■
men and -the public generally, to show /
that the act of 'Parliament is not being El
carried out as to returned men' being
given preference to post office ap ■'`
:pointnients and I' guess niauy others.
If it'" had not been for the men who/
went over and made the sacrifice, the / ■
'postmaster -general would not be hold-
ing his well-paid position, he no doubt ted
would have been in the same poor' /
'position as many returned men and / /
under German rule. I hope this will

that it does not please the Honorable ■
