Mr. justice :\1's'C111Iflll spolte weighty words on the attitude of Cnnzulizuis to the war. He said:

“Laiiada is tit w:it' bci1ii1>i~ our lint; is at war. And when our King is at war, then it is the bounden duty of every loyal subject to go to the assistance iif the lvittt; and ilcfcntl hint.

Ilicrcfore, it IIUIIUUYCS every’ stibjcct of the King when the Crown is in danger, to enlist in the services of the lxiitig and defend him.”

This short quotation from His Lordship's re- marks contains not all we know, but all we need to know, and is applicable to any whose coit- scicttce is troubled by “over thinking". 'l‘he judge has two sous, both of whom are serving with His Majesty's Forces, therefore he has im- maculately “clean hands" in enriunciatitig these views. It should be added that the Hon. J. A. Mathieson has only one son and he is “over there” doing his bit.

I cam remember sitting In a, cafe in Amsterdam on the day after the introduction of compmsory military service 1n England. An 01d German waiter brought me a Ger- man newspaper to read.

There was mockery In that head-

“What. do you think of It? I asked the German waiter.

He eyed me carefully, must have decided that. I was Dutch, and re- plied slowly: .

“They were strong 81101181‘) when I met them on the Somme 1n 1916, but. 1 think they have aezenewwd- They are fat and have too easy lives. I do not think thﬂf W111 W" fight. again. They w111 get. other people to do It for them, perhaps, but they will not fight themselves.

so here was yet another con- scientious 66.111311 finally convinced by endless and cleverly repeated

The story underneath the mock- Ing headline was itself mocking. All that the Nazis ever wrote about. this break with centuries of En!- fish tradition was food for the fc-fisfi iiingiitei- of ymms New» and others.
