LEAVE EXTENDED
Soldiers on leave and due to return to camp this week have had their leave extended, the Minister of Defence (Mr. Jones) announced last night.
"New train and travel arrangements are in hand and the time-tables will be distributed to Array area officers and railway stationmasters by Wednesday," the Minister added. "Soldiers are advised to confirm their departure time and date by inquiring from the nearest Army area officer .or a stationmaster on or after Wednesday. So that the fullest advantage can be taken of this extra leave, it is essential in the soldiers' own interests that personnel should travel in accordance with the new time-table.
