AUXILIARY FIREMEN
BRITISH MOBILISATION
RUGBY, May 21
All part-time auxiliary firemen who had reached the age of 25 years at the date of their registration and whose calling up for military service was deferred till June 30, are to be compulsorily enrolled for whole-time duty in the A.F.S. at once.
Several thousand men will thus be added to the full-time strength of the fire service. Priority will be given to those districts in which there is a specially urgent need for full-time men, but so far as possible the men enrolled will be posted to fill vacancies in the A.F.S. establishment in their own areas.—B.O.W.
