AIRMEN FROM TRINIDAD
(P.ec. 9- a.m.) LONDON, Dec. 2.
The Air Ministry is considering proposals that Trinidad shall become a training centre for all R.A.F. candidates from the West Indies and adjacent territories.
With this in mind the Trinidad Finance Committee has recommended the additional provision of 75,000 dollars this year.
The Governor, Sir Hubert Young, revealed this during a review of Trinidad affairs when opening a session of the Legislative Council.
Through an air training scheme administered by the Trinidad Light Aeroplane Club the colony has dispatched 47 cadets to England. Twenty-six air cadets are training and others are on the waiting list.—B.O.W.
