An appeal by Chairman Nc
Cumber to opponents OF the raid for
the benefit Of able bodied ex-service
men for an agreement to expedite

nation offered by Cunningham dur
ing a gruelling examination was
Wards "blackmail story is false, IN
that Peters and his gang was not
blackmailing the son OF the million
