"If there is in the province one farmers son, an employee on the form. who did not comply with wartime tmilitary) regulations, I ask him to do it at once and he will be exempted.

Sweeping exemptions Promised

“Quebecs farmers‘ sons. whe- ther they are in the army now, or if they did not comply with military service regulations or even they are considered desert- ers, will be exempted of any mil- itary service or will be released l‘ from the army if they are given a certificate by their mayors and agronomists proving that they are needed on farms.

"There will be a small punish- ment. of course. for not having obeyed orders, but who has never been punished for not having com- plied with the law? You know that I always think of what I say before making a promise and may assure you that once again I thought of what i just said and. if I said it, it is because it is true."

Tough Enemy Defences Buckled Before Caen

By CHARLES LYNCH (Router War Correspondent) BEFORE CAEN, Saturday Noon. July 8 - (OP) - Router) ~From the edge oi wheatfieids which the original attack was made before dawn today I saw British and Canadian troops smash through the perimeter of the Caen defences and push on in bitter fighting towards the town itself. The defences. which are re- garded as the toughest confront- ing the Allies in any heachhead sector. buckled before the heavy Allied artillery flre. devastating attacks by rocket-firing fighter planes, and the rnachine-gu . rifles and courage of the infan-

try.

Instead of using their artillery as formerly in a saturation bar- rage the British and Canadian guns worked on specified targets and pulverized them.

The first shells landed so close ahead that we thought at first they were German. Thev were whistling low over our position but

so concentr was the barrage that we could only hear the whine for an occasional split second be- tween the constlnt crush of guns.
