Scope and Contents

The letter is written by Gladys Zani to George Schwabe, expressing her frustration with the lack of support for wives of ex-servicemen who have been deserted. She has sought help from various organizations but has been told that there are no funds available to bring the men back to their families or to enforce child support. She believes that there should be provisions in place to ensure that ex-servicemen support their families, and asks if there is anything a wife can do in this situation.
