Arrears of Pensions.
At the Cabinet meeting today the only ques-
ton of importance discussed was that relating
to arrears of pensions due inmates of soldiers
homes. The managers claim that as the law
provides support at the homes in lieu of pen
sions which go to the homes, the arrears should
go the same way On the other hand it is
claimed that the arrears bill was passed subse-
quent to the law relating to the support of sol
diers at the homes, and that the money should
go directly to the pensioner. 1t was decided
to refer the whole subject to the Attorney
General
