To the Editor: The decision of this election may rest with the wo- men. They have been given votes, because their sons and ' husbands, brothers and fathers, have gone to France. The women who have no soldlers at the war have no votes. Sir Wilfrid Laurier and his friends adopt the attitude of denouneing this as injustice, and in times' of peace it might be, but at this time it is right that those who bear the bur- den should have privileges. They deserve recogniticn at the hands of the people. For whom should they vote? The parliament now to be chosen must see this war to the end. For that sole purpose men wMNo have been life--long antagonists are sit- ting down at the council board to take counsel together to win the iwar. They have put aside all mat- ters of difference between them, and unite for this one thing. Party politics are abandoned and forgotten because of this tremendous struggle. Some of the men who bave done this have made sacrifice of a political career, because they be- lieved the call of their country de- way to win the war. They are con- vinced that Canada must speak with one voice in this matter, that noth- ing else will do. Should the women support them or not? What answer would the lads in France and Flanders make? They need support; they want more men; some of them are on guard without rest. "They have been three years in the fight, and they need rest and re- lief. There is no way to get it un- less the Union Government is sup- ported. Yours, G. M. MacDONNELL. A LULL AT CAMBRAL No Further Infantry Action,' War Office Reports. (Canadian Press Despatch) London, Dec. 4--A Tull in the battle oh the Cambrai front last night, after the terrific fighting of the last few days, is reported by the War Office.
