The Politics Of Peace !

Found a couple more articles which give a bit more insight into the backgound and politics of this group.

"The move to launch the new organisation followed the announcement by the N.S.W. branch of the R.S.L. that there would be no change in the new rule to admit certain classes of non returned men to membership."

"The Battle Veterans' Association will be restricted to men who have actually been in battle. That will exclude many members of the league."

"Communists or Fascists could not become members of the newly-formed Battle Veterans' Association because of its constitution, which pledged swerving loyalty to the Throne."
