They believe that probably the 10 per cent. may be made up by the brewing industry. The brewers may be able to exceed it.

A provision that postponement of military training may now be given until further notice, will asâ€" sist essential industries and reduce ‘the work of the Mobilization Boards. Previously, only coal minâ€" ers and farm workers could secure unlimited postponement, with the result that Boards periodically had to review all other postponements, even though it could be foreseen that the circumstances would warâ€" rant an indefinite postponement. The new regulations, for the first time, give the military authorities power to hold a man who has been convicted in court of failure to reâ€" port for military training under the regulations.
