In fact, so acute has the shortage of returned officers pe- come that it has been suggestéd that it may be necessary to take men of better education, who have been called to the army under the Mili- tary Service Act, and train them for officers. If this is decided on it is not 'likely the appointments will be permanent. It is estimated that a third of the men called to military service have not reported.
