Abstract
THE War Office Memorandum recently issued rightly points with satisfaction to the arrangements made to allow Regular officers to take a full course of study at a university (A.O. 323 of 1919). Unfortunately, however, the conditions under which officers may avail themselves of this privilege are such that only the wealthy ones will be able to take advantage of it, for while seconded they will receive no pay or allowance from Army funds; indeed, it has not even been decided whether the whole or any portion of the period spent at a university will count towards pension.
