EXTENSION SOUGHT
RAILWAY PASSES FOR FURLOUGH MEN (By Telegraph—Press Association.) AUCKLAND, October 18. Railway passes issued to men on furlough from the Middle East expired on October 14. Mr A. P. Postlewaite, president of the Auckland R.S.A., said that the men had been given an extension of leave, but their passes evidently had not been extended. As they would naturally consider that an extension of leave would imply extended rail facilities, doubtless some would be unaware of the actual position and might find themselves in difficulties when required to return. He suggested that the use of passes should be continued to enable them to report back to their bases. The Government should give authority to the Railways Department to validate travel, he said.
