AUSTRALIA'S PART.
EMPIRE AIR SCHEME.
Thousands Of Airmen Will Go
Abroad.
PRIME MINISTER'S STATEMENT
(Received 11 a.m.)
MELBOURNE, this day
"Thousands, not hundreds, of Australian airmen are likely to be sent abroad under the Empire training scheme, which is reaching amazing proportions," said the Prime Minister, Mr. R. G. Menzies. "I hope it is sufficiently realised that the Canadian scheme will involve probably ten times as great a participation by Australia as was envisaged in the original air expeditionary force proposal."
