An interesting commentary upon the claim of Sir Sam Hughes that he had "let up" in recruiting as a re- sult of the Prime Mimister‘s sugges- tion was a statement by Sir Robert that from May 6 to June 6 (when the fuse Investigation was on and the Prime Minister temporarily ill charge' of the Militia Department) Sllr Sam had gone ahead and authorized eleven new battli-lions.

Sir Sam followed Sir Robert with

a rc-iteration of his dtatement. that the Prime Minister had asked lli-nl to "let up" on' recruiting and that he had heard Sir Robert had made' ll similar statement to Mr. J. M. God- frey, of Toronto.

The Prime Minister got up imme-
