Members of the A.T.S. are ugitating to be supplied by the War Office with greatcoats.

They complain that many of them are suffering from bad colds and pneumonia and that they need the coats to prevent further illness.

Some of the girls have had rain- coats, but not fleece-lined because there was a shortage of these linings The War Office say the health of the A.T.S. is everywhere reported as exceptionally good and that they have no reports of any such cases of illness.
