The first of these safe- guards was that somebody other than myself who was in a better osltion to judge would say that Phe task was of national import- ance. The other was, because I am deeply concemed with safe- guarding the rights of’ labour and getting back to our ordinary con- ditions as quickly as we can, that the Minister of Labour should tell us whether by doing the work re- quested wc were interfering either with labour or with the standards

Most Important

Mr. McNaughton: I think that is a mostimportant matter be- cause manly of the men have spe- cial quallf cations and can meet .the needs, for example. in thc munitions industry. If we have a man who is capable of helping us in that business, where we are very short, we are in duty bound, I third; to release him, and the simplest way to do so is to place [him on a reserve and allow him gto go and work in that industry. i Mr. Green: About how many men

are to be dealt with in that way? Mr. McNaughton‘ I cwnnot give the answer to that until I have a detailed analysis of the figures. All I have been able to state to the House to-day is a policy, We are working it out, and in clue course we shall see what the needs of the situation are and how we can hes‘- meet them.

some hon. Members: The for- mer mimisten.

Mr, I-Iansell: The fomncr

iMlnlster of-Nationai Defence. It ‘may be that I am addicted to the iuse of the expression "the late ISo-and-so". because in the course iof my life time I have had to hold ‘so many funerals. although the word is very ghostly to me. I thank

hon. members for the correction. I

glersonally think that the former

inister of National Defence should

be the one to answer questions.

so that from him we could gain

some knowledge of this matter.

I-Ie was in harness in Canada since

General McNaughton returned from

England, and should know the

situation. I have said that thc

reason for culling parliament has

.its basis in the fact that there was in difference of opinion with respect fto the policy of the former Minister {of Defence and the government.

ed his position this country stirred; feelings ran high. so much -sn that pressure of public opinion caused the Prime Minister or Your Honour to feel it imperative to cull parliament. I doubt whether .General NlcNntightqn can answrr ‘the question I am about to put. and therefore I do not ask that ha‘ necessarily shall answer it.

This is my question: Would Colonel Ralstons resigna- tion have been necessary if this order in council had bccn passer; upon his report to the cabinet aft- cr his return from overseas?

Answers Promised

Mr. McNaughton: May I reply to the hon. member that I have not this detailed statistical infor- mation here, but we will do our but to get the figures and give him the answers to his questions. As regards the last question, re- gardlng general service volun- teers for overseas it is a principle that an officer shall go where he is sent. There is no question that these volunteers are available for service anywhere as need dictates.

officers and others who have been used on special work may well have been retained even this long at one of the headquarters. I must admit that I have not tn- formation as to the number. but I will try to get it and give the ana-

wer at the first opportunity. Mr. Dlefenbaker: Mr. Speaker.- Mr. B eaker: The hon. member

for Mac eod has the floor. Mr. l-Iansell: I shall not take much time. It is nearly six o'clock. and perhaps the hon. member for Lake Qentre will be able to speak before the recess or immediately after eight o'clock. I have but one question to ask. Parliament ha: been summoned, I fanc. to dis- cuss the reaction of th country to government policy with respect to he men in the forces now tn Canada. l still feel slightly in a quandary as to what t e govern- ment policy actually is. When we came here to parliament we were quite certain that government rate‘!- I

icy was against conecrlpting N. it. M. . men overseas.

Now there has been panned an order in council which. when it was read, appeared to be a ra- veraal of the policy. I pick up the evening paper. and the head- line, which I believe you. Mr.
