Firs’r War Leader Sir Sam

Still Controversial Figure

By BEN WARD

OTTAWA tCPl—It was the morning of Aug. 3. 1914. and Col. Sam Hughes. minister of militia in the Borden govern- ment. sat in his office blazing with anger. 0n the desk lay the latest dispatches about the Eu- ropean war threat.

“They’re going to skunk it.‘ he cried, banging the papers with his fist. “England is going to skunk it! Morley and Burns have resigned from the cabinet as a protest against participat- ing in the war and’they seem to be looking for an excuse to get out of helping France."

Col. Hughes began pacing up and down the office in mounting frustration.

“By God, I don't want to be a Britisher under such condi tions. To think they would want to go back on France!"

He abruptly ordered a stat tled aide to go out and remove the Union Jack from the top of military headquarters. A while later. cooler heads persuaded him to raise it again and await more news.

ext night the word arrived that England had declared war on Germany. As part of the Empire. Canada was automat- Ically in the fight and Sam Hughes settled down to it with 2 st

Before his forced resignation in 1916 he became perhaps the most prominent national figure the war, certainly the most- talked-about. He was knighted by the king. pushed himself to the rank of honorary lieutenant- general and won a large meas- ure of public acclaim. After the war he reaped almost uni- versal criticism.
