Leaving Colours SPECIAL TO THE "HED

London, Nov. 2.

Vocational training is to be made available to the utmost to every soldier before he leaves the colours, not afterwards as at present, stated Mr. Leslie Here-Belisha, Secretary for War, in the House of Commons to-day.

The men will receive full military pay and appropriate allowances as soldiers. Those returning from overseas will, if necessary, be permitted to extend their colour service to take advantage of these courses.

The new system will be experi-g along Hatamen Street.
