within ago limit prescribed by iho Military Act This is manifestly unjust 7 To obtdo by tho of to further concorlptlon Sir Wilfrid says As to present MililaryHcrvice Act polioy will he not to proceed further under its provisions Iho people have an opportunity to pronounce upon it by way of a referendum I pledge myself lo submit forthwith the Act to the people ana with my followers lo carry out Iho wishes of the majority of the nation as thus expressed To a oampaJan for voluntary Thus for recruiting for overseas Service has been left wholly lo private enterprise Sir efforts were confined to a campaign for voluntary National Service under a department of Iho Government created and conducted at great cost and which has since boon abandoned National apart altogether from overseas service Neither Sir Robert nor his government has conducted a recruiting campaign Nothing for example has boon attempted by Government in the way of recruiting similar to campaign for Iho Victory Loon Sir Wilfrid says I would at the same organize and carry out a strong appeal for voluntary recruiting To ralco troopo In and avoid Internal In Canada at a limo when the preservation of Canadian unity jo all important to the strength Allies Sir Wilfrid says Is a fact that cannot bo denied thai the vol untary system especially in Quebec did not- get a fair trial and a fair trial would receive from a generous people a ready respOnflO which would bring men to the ranks with good will and enthusiasm and which would eliminate from our political life one of its most borrowing problems as no loyal Canadian can view without the gravest apprehension a disunited Canada at this critical hour of our history To tho returned soldiers on countrys and support Sir Wilfrid says to that rob the consumer

for all classes of for all people of small III and of oven income It is no answer Ho cay that this is the consequence When It is considered that the price of bread and speak only of two commodities higher hero in Canada than in the Kingdom this of itself is proof sufficient that the prices hero are Inflated by methods which are in no way connected with the war tho war is taken advantage of for yory purpose of inflation Indeed the principal causes of these oversoaring prices are none other than those described in Government manifesto as profits hoardings and combinations for of prices Since Ihe Government knows where the evil fa what prevents the Government from striking tho and striking bard Tho remedies are at hand and I at once sot down the policy To and and Sir Wilfrid says No

prices To tho millions by having now Parliament upon transactions of tho Gordon In their with and Sir Wilfrid says One feature of the Act of last session is that the Government becomes the owner of the stock of the Company of Iho nominal value of sixty million dollars There never was a dollar paid in stock The exports employed by the Government lo appraise the value of the whole enterprise men of acknowledged ability and experience themselves have reported that the stock of the Company has no value whatever Yet the Government hove taken authority to appoint a hoard of arbitrators to give a value lo that property which their experts have declared absolutely without value The Opposition asked that the report of the arbitrators whatever it might be should be laid before Parliament for approval Though this motion was rejected it is right of the people lo declare that the case should not have been finally closed by the action of a Parliament but that the whole matter should be

Slates of like proportion population would number over live millions to its total to tins is his WAR POLICY Sir Wilfrids policy is set forth in a manifesto issued by him the people of Canada on November Bill As to var duty to participate In It Wilfrid says It cannot he said too often that tins war count not have been avoided by Allies and that it is a contest for the very existence civilization Of the entrance of the United States into conflict further proof if indeed further proof were needed The American people long hoped that they would be spared that but the ruthless violation by Germany of the most sacred canons of Internationa Law left them no option thay had to join in the against a power which has become the common enemy of mankind air- Wilfrid Promises If Returned 1fo make winning of tho var the main object of Sir Wilfrid says Should I be called upon to form a Government I would hope to include in it business of labour and of agriculture of the men whoso solo object in dealing with the affairs of the country will be lo devote the whole resources wealth and energy of the country lo Iho winning of the To find men and to tno fullest support to our soldiers at tho front Sir ilfrld says My first duly will be to seek out Ihe- shiest men of the country men of organizing capacity as well as men representative of all classes in Iho community and invito them irrespective of what it may the way of of their persona interests to Join with me in he formation of a cabinet whoso first object will be to And Ihe men and I resources necessary ensure Iho fullest measure of support lo our heroic soldiers at the front and to enable Canada lo continue to the very end lo do splendid part to win the war the and thoso dependent on mi In of the State says man who is prepared to volunteer his ser vices and to risk his life in his country defence is to first consideration Those dependent upon him and who spare him from their midst are nert most deserving Of States solicitude and cai-e- A policy which will accord to the soldier and in the concern of tho fitato will believe fori e necessary him place i mi The greatest service that can be rendered Iho bravo men wjio have first claim upon our gratitude and sympathy is to replace them in civil life How lo do that in the way best calculated to enable each man to become if possible selfsustaining is a task that will call for the display of all that is noblest and beet in the Canadian people To bo generous and patient In the treatment Of returned Sir Wilfrid says In a vast number of eases reeducation and technical training will be necessary In these cases patience and generosity on the part of the State combined with sympathetic understanding practical experience and scientific knowledge on the part of those whomUie State will call in to aid its efforts will go a long way towards helping the returned soldier to overcome the handicaps of war If we but sol our selves resolutely to this task its accomplishment will bo hastened by the hearty cooperation of every man who lias been on service overseas 12 To make more provision for and famlllds Sir Wilfrid says measures now in force for the maintenance care and comfort of the soldiers dependents and families not adequate or equitable The nations obligations to the soldiers and their dependents must be discharged the nation and not through the medium of public benevolence or charily 13 To take prompt action to put soldiers and their dopondont3 any possibility of want Sir Wilfrid says Prompt action must bo taken to put the soldiers and their dependents beyond any possibility of want after public subscriptions have ceased and the glamour and excitement of the war have worn away 14 To put a atop to Profiteering Sir Wilfrid says of most important contributions toward winning the war is lo put a stop to profiteering on war supplies The Government has deliberately encour aged profiteering for the benefit of its partisan follow ers A first duty of my administration would be lo secure to the country which pays for war supplies excess of exorbitant profits being realized by profit eers- i 1b To State control of factories making of var Sir Wilfrid says Should it lie necessary I would not hesitate in order to immediately slop profiteering to take control of the factories which are engaged in Ihe supply of war materials as has been doe in Great Britain and run them on the principle of reasonable legitimate profit 10 To Government shops to war materials build chips etc Sir Wilfrid says I believe that one of the best methods of provid ing war supplies and of saving Ihe country from exploited by profiteers would be to turn the govern ment shops which suitable for such purposes lo production of war materials ships etc for the benefit of the country at cost price To prevent organized wealth and privileged Interests from controlling government Sir Wilfrid says I would hope to have a Government representa tive of the masses of the people the common people whose guiding principle should be to defend hem against organized privilege which has heretofore bad far too much control over the Government of the country 10 To control food supplies and fix by Government Sir Wilfrid says In connection with the high cost of living I would take drastic steps to bring under government all food producing factories so food may be sold at a fixed price under the control of the gov- as has been done inGreat Britain To this arrangements should be made manage ment of food producing factories allowing for a fair interest on investment and fajr and reasonable not profits so that foollVnay be by Iho ordinary consumer at best possible To commandeer all food factories If necessary Sir Wilfrid says Should such arrangements not be possible I would not lo commandeer all food factories To prices of commodities where Sir Wilfrid says Tho government is invested with powers could and should have used to reduce Ihe price of all commodities These powers hey hove already exercised In the case of If they could thus reduce the price of paper to consumers of paper why did they slop there should the Government not also have reduced to hundreds of thousands of anxious housewives and breadwinners prices of all those commodities lha Iba over- increasing cost of living one of the most insistent and dangerous of ail the problems that now says Sir Wilfrid has not said that he will have Con scription under any conditions All he has said is that he ia opposed lo further Conscription without the people being given a Chance to pronounce upon it and this for the following reasons It will hinder rather than to win war Sir Wilfrid says I This year the Government introduced a bill lo make military service compulsory With this policy found it impossible lo agree If it he asked how this view is consistent with my oft expressed determination lo assist in winning the war I answer without any hesitation that this sudden departure from voluntary system was bound more to hinder than lo help the war licoaueo It will Canada Sir Wilfrid says It will create and intensify division where unity of purpose is It will dootroy purpoao and nocoooary to winning war Sir Wilfrid says It may bring men to the ranks but it will not infuse into the whole body of the nation that spirit of enthusiasm and determination which is more than half the battle is nof sound Sir Wilfrid I hold that to coerce when persuasion has not been attempted is not sound policy and in this I appeal lo the impartial judgment of all Canadians the of Introduction was nor effective Sir Wilfrid says To force such a drastic measure upon a people thus unprepared and against repeated assurances to the contrary was neither wise nor prudent nor effective Its Introduction at this Juncture was a error Sir Wilfrid says I great confidence lo the fair Judg ment of the country that the introduction of conscrip tion at tliis juncture and in the manner above described was a grave error if it is remembered that Ihe supreme object should have been and still should be to bring all classes of the community to hearty cooperation in the task which we assumed the pooplo of Canada unprepared for Its Introduction Sir Wilfrid says It must be pointed out that in Great Britain for some years before the war in view of the immensity of war preparations amongst all the nations of the continent the question of conscription was seriously and increasingly discussed in Parliament and in the press so that al last when a measure to that effect was introduced by Hie government it came as no surprise It found the people prepared and yet even then strong protests were heard from many classes of the com munity Very different was the introduction of Conscrip tion in Canada It came as a complete surprise It never had been discussed in Parliament and Ihe voice of tho press had been strong against it Because press of Canada till Conscription was Intro duced educated tho pooplo against the Idea of Conscription Sir Wilfrid says In the month of July such an important paper as Ihe Toronto GLOBE deprecated the very idea of Conscription Here is what it said in a carefully reasoned editorial The in its editorial columns has consistently pointed out that in a country such as Canada conscription is an impossibility and that no responsible statesman of either parl capable of forming or leading a Canadian War Ministry would propose compulsory service Even as late as December the Globe repeated its warnings against any effort to force the Canadians into the ranks and summed up public opinion thus Trades unionists are found opposing Conscription and leading opponents of every manifestation of democracy are favoring the system Government elated there Meld which in Mesopota mia won for him rapid promotion full iPOUnlpri in history of the British army career was watched with
