NATIONAL SERVICE
MEN OF TWENTY CALLED UP IN BRITAIN. (British Official Wireless.) (Received This Dav, 9.50 a.m.) RUGBY, December 1. A Royal Proclamation requires all British subjects who have reached the age of 20 on December 1 but have not reached the age of 23 years to register for service. The registration date is December 9. The procedure will be the same as for other classes. It is estimated that this means about 225.000 more men for the services. The new proclamation extends the liability for service to men of 22 and also to those who since October 1. but before December 2, attained the age of 20 years.
