ENROLMENT OF RESERVES
CERTIFICATE OF ENROLMENT.
(United Press Association.)
WELLINGTON, This Day
The Recruiting Board forwards the following statement: —lt is still evident from reports in the press and from communications that have reached the Board that there is widespread anxiety on the part of reservists lor some evidence of their enrolment.
It has therefore been decided that the Government Statistician shall acknowledge the receipt of each application and that such acknowledgment will be a temporary proof of enrolment until it is replaced in due course by the certificate itself. It will be clearly understood, of course, that once the certificate is issued the temporary acknowledgment card will entirely cease to have any value as prof of t lie enrolment. Arrangements have been made to overtake the a-ccumulatioii' of applications already received and it is hoped that within the next week or ten days every reservist who has applied for a certificate of enrolment will have received an acknowledgment card and a reservist, therefore, who has applied for this certificate of enrolment and who does not get an acknowledgment card within the time stated above, should at once renew his application.—W. F. Massey, Chairman.
