§ 53. Mr. SNOWDENasked the President of the Local Government Board if the indentures of a youth called up under the Military Service Act are cancelled, or if he can compel the employer to complete the contract on his release from the Army; and if the employer can compel the apprentice to complete the unexpired period of the apprenticeship when the young man is released from the Military Service Act?
§ The PRESIDENT of the LOCAL GOVERNMENT BOARD (Mr. Long)The question is not one on which I could give an authoritative opinion. Much might depend on the terms of the particular indenture.
