that this would be better than a reporting system and selection boards. While professional expertise beyond that already sti-

pulated in Advancement Regulations will not be required. the possibility of

educational requirements at some time in the future is not ruled out. In due course. a candidate for Fleet (‘hief will have to have two G.C.E. "O" levels. and since the petty officers who speed to chief would apparently be Fleet (‘hicf material. the ambitious ones could make their preparations, whatever the rules say. at the earliest possible stage in their careers.

While offering the chance for quicker progress for the bright boys in attaining the "chief." Admiralty Hoard undertake to see that men with long and good service will not "get their noses pushed out" by brighter junior P()s. Seniority. it is laid down. will still carry rather more weight than in the case of promotion to Fleet Chief. So. a little more accent here. a little less there. The Board are tryin to be fair to everybody. an the verdict can only given when the results begin to show.
