BRITAIN’S ARMY
FURTHER GROUP CALLED
[ British Official Wireless. ] Received Jan. 10, 5.5 p.m. RUGBY, Jan. 9. A further registration for national service will take place next Saturday, affecting men born between July 1 and December 31, 1904, and men born between November 10 and December 31, 1920, all inclusive. The Home Secretary announced that, men over 30, who are registering next Saturday and Saturday week, and who are not in reserved occupations, may apply to be posted to vacancies in the civil defence services. “These vacancies," said Mr. Morrison, "may not be in their own town or district, and their civil defence service may resemble service in the army in involving transfer away from home. The vacancies are in the auxiliary fire service, first aid parties, and police war reserve.”
