PARENTS PROTEST
ARMY USE, OF SCHOOLS (Per Press Association.) PALMERSTON N, this day. An announcement that the Army would give no definite date on which it would vacate schools in Palmerston North gave rise to vigorous protests at a meeting of parents of the College Street School last night, when it was decided to communicate with the Prime Minister, the Ministeh of Defence and the Minister of Health, protesting against the continued occupation of schools by the military after the date agreed on for their vacation. In respect to the Intermediate School, which is being used as an emergency hospital for the duration of the war for sick Territorials, the meeting decided to tell the Government that it should erect a hospital building and allow the school to function normally.
