RECRUITING METHODS _

Sir Sam Hughes has issued a timely W81'l1ll18 i0 I ¢°F`

tain class of otllcers and recruillnx SP¢lk°l`S Wh° °d°9t scolding methods. _,To hear some ollicers talk one would imagine that they themselves grudged having 9Dli8l¢d U15 found relief to their feelings by jibinl 8! 0019” Wm’ 5"” not yet donned the khaki. This, as Sir Sam D011!! °\\t- i5 apt to defeat the object in view. The average msn reseuts being scolded and jibed at, and certainly any msn with I spark of spirit would decline to respond to such appeals-or' threats. .

The way of the successful recruiters is persuasion.

The successful recruiter follows this up by POUIUDE 0"!

pend upon the voluntary offer of service by the men of 1

cient numbers. the recruiting speakers then show, the

part or by order of the kalser He concludes with an

appeal fall on deaf ears.

To listen to or to read some recruiting appeals one would

imagine that we were. as Lord Robert Cecil said the other day. a nation of deliberate. wilful slackers led by a series of Ministers and generals who were either corrupt or incompetent or both. We have received several communi-

cations. as have others in this province. from worthy 9nd well-intentioned correspondents now serving their King and country. retlecllng upon the capacity of even Lord Kitchener and General Jotfre. The writers no doubt are sincere but are sadly misguided. So also are those recruit- ing speakers. fortunately we have none such in this prov- ince though lhey`are plentiful in the other maritime prov- _ inces. who presume to scold their bearers because the re- sponse has not been so great or so general as they would like to see. This class of patriot is not new, of co\u°se. Those who are old enough to have read the ancient classic “The Dodd-Family Abroad." which used to be found on the book shelves of almost every respectable family three or four decades ago, will recall that Mrs. Dodd thus deg scribed the patriotism of her late lamented: “He loved his country." said the good lady. “and it was a treat to hear hiul praise it. ‘.-\h!` he would say. ‘there is only oneblot on her. The Judges is rogues. the Governmeut’s rogues, the Grand Jur_v‘s regues. and the People is vfliism."' _l _

The quandary in which our Liberal friends have been

placed by the defeat of their chosen lender in the recent election is not by any means without precedent in the political history of this great dominion. or for that matter, in the political history of=the'British Empire. Without delving too deeply into history it is only necessary to re~, mind our readers that Sir Robert Borden and Sir Wilfrid Laurier, leaders of their respective parties. each awoke one morning after an election to find be was without a seat from which to command his followers.

But this same bit of history reminds us also that a

remedy was promptly found by the enthuslsstle followers °f U19 l’€Sl>9¢tive, respected, but unfortunate lenders.

TRADES UNIUN AND THE WAR

' ' The great Trades Union (longresa held at Brllwl D0' _tweuu me stu uul mu September me had a remlrl=l>l° sequel. It was fesrod and expected that the advanced-

‘Soclslist element would capture the organisation sud tum

it against the Government. The reverse has been the case. The Govemment"llii`cspturod"the Collxrllll sud turned li against the advanced~Soclslist element. -

mr. Lloyd oem-ge was luylteato undress the congress

and he delivered a speech which opened the eyes of every man in the country who had the `tliought that 'ull was well with labour. Mr. Lloyd George _bid been longed to show how the Government had kept its promise to intercept war profits and prevant them going into the pockets of "greedy capitalists." I-Ie did so by pointing the tact that the State had ‘taken control of practically the whole of the engineering wprks in the country and appro- -priated the protlt they made out or the war for the purposes of the State. The Govemment. he claimed, had carried out _completely the bargain wlll_c)l_they_|_nad`§ with the represen- tatives of tbe.trade unionsat tb_e_Tmasury conference some time ago. > C

Then he turned to the reciprocal undertaking of the _

trade union leaders, and with a fearlessness which won the admirhtiou even of the.men whose conduct was lm- peacbed he exposed the failure of labour. not in ‘all cases but in “far too many." to carry out its share of the bnrxtlnf He told of case after case in which local branches of trade unions had placed obstacles ln the way of an increased production of guns, shells, and rifles. At Woolwich Arsenal engineers refused to allow semi-skilled men to do work 110112 hitherto by fully quallnell mechanics. lu south wales U19! forbade the handling of lathes by the unskilled. In Birmingham they objected to the erection of _munitions machinery by a textile millwright. The employees of one 01' U19 l8l’8est tool-making firms in the country vetoed the engagement of women to work lathes, and declared that if it were insisted upon they know bow to protect their rights.

“Thls is a war of material." said Mr. Lloyd George.

_‘,‘Tbe German advance in Russia is a victory of German trade unionism. Inadequate material means defeat. We are making prodigious elforta b increase our war material in order to give our gallant men fair play. We have set up 16 national arsenals. We are constructing 11 more. We re- quire 80000 m°r¢ skilled men sua 200,000 uuslrlllea. 'run °°\ll1U`Y 8! ihe present moment is not doing its utmost. ‘Ififteen per cent. of the machines for turning out rifles, Cannon. and shells are not working at night. We cannot ¢_9\llP our armies in time unless organised labour is pre- ~l>81'ed to assist. If the attltunde of the Woolwich engineers is to be adhered to. we are making straight for disaster. The G°'°"l\m¢nt misht Just us well abandon men- pro Smlllme- '-he Programme which R essential to victory."

The congress was clearly disturbed by these revels.

tions. At first some of the delegates were inclined to beckle the Minister, but he went quietly piling proof upon

.proof until they became silent. There was worse to come.

PU* 0! UN blrsuln made by the trade unions, Mr. Lloyd fG0°l'8€ here reminded the congress, was that practices sud- regulstious which restricted output would be suspended. YB! ill llffafll’ all districts, except some where shells were made--these restrictions were rigidly maintained. and 'the "'°° °f "°l'km°I1 vho ti-lea to so their belt were made ml5°\‘“\1l°- H€l'€ lttiu Mr- Llvyd George was able to give C1901’ °Vl¢|4’Jl¢\9 from Enfield, Woolwich. and Coventry. Even Belgian workmen had been wsmed not to work too strenu- Olllly.

“This sort or thing ought to be dropped." he said, -‘lf the

Russians have been driven back they will come again, but “N15” U10? ltd ready the burden falls upon this country. Letrul maintain it in a wsy which is worthy of our tradi- tion.

` So ended s speech and 'the like of which (says The

Times) no other Trades Union Congress ever neg;-q_

It was n speech compounded of stern rebuskysolomn nm- llll. and earnest pl'°ld\ll8- It put the del tes to shame, iontbey knew they could not refute the charges -it. brought. But It also called upon them to repent. and _¢he"tumultuons chem with which they greeted the closing appeal or the spsnker was an snurer to that call. _
