The following telegram was received by, us at noon'frojn the Hon. W. F. Massey, Chairman of the Recruiting Board: — ' ... From time to time since the initiastion of the new recruiting scheme, tiie attention of the Recruiting Board has been directed to families in different districts of the Dominion with two or more single sons of -military age, not one of whom has joined the Expeditionary Force under the voluntary principle of enlistment. Of course, it was impossible for the board to take any action in these cases, as the decision is left entirely .to the individual himself, but in response to numerous requests that some other steps should bt- taken to bring home to such men a due sense •of their obligations to-the State and i to their comrades and fellow citizens who are already at the front, a section has been inserted in the Military Service Act which empowers the Minister of Defence, if he is satisfied with respect to any family that it of two or more brothers or half-brothers who belong to the first division of the reserve, and are not permanently unfit, to bring all or any of those brothers before a Military Service Board and there require them to show cause why they should not be called up for service in the Expeditionary Force. -The Act having now passed and become statute.law, it is intended to bring this section into operation as early as possible, and if any cases as defined by it are still to be found when the Military Service Boards are set up, they will provide the first business for these boards to adjudicate upon.
