OTTAWA, Dec; 7.--Tho first judg-
ment rendered by Mr. Justice' Dub, the Central Appeal Judge for Canada. deallllg Wil-th the provisions of the Military Service Act ag relating to farmers has excited uint-ll lmeregl here. -
Much -ofthe ditlicuity connected
with the interpretation of the act, corr- cerning particularly the iurrrrers 'of
Canada, has been cleared away. ’l‘hit=I'
first judgrnerr-t precisely ailiruis. that COUIPGIGHI persons habitually and effectivelll engaged in agricultural production are entitled to exemptiori on the grounds that in order to susliiiii the military power oi the Allies il is esseutial that there should be no diminution in such produetloll mill that the supply of asr-It-urrrri-ar irirroiii rs actually deficient. _ ~.
Any effort that iS.licing Iuado or
r-1-hall be made by thc opponeIri~l of the Military' Service Acl to ci-cult- .in;. OI-Ilel' Illlllression to tho I'nr'I\rcr's of Canada that what is actually contain- ed lin the first judgrncn-t ot Mr. Jtrstic- Duff would be a political dodge. 'l`lr Judgment eniplrzisizcs what has li;-tile,-_ io been the lirlznnrcrit of tlrosli r.:.~|roit sible for the appeal. 'I`hat lin- Milit- ary S¢‘l‘VlIft‘ Hill is esscritinlly .solve- tive in its scope, and that tim .rii,ji~i' of the bill is to sec that the inil uran- oower Of Canaiiri shall bo irtiiizcil iii the Slllleres best ctilt,Irlaii.d to ht-1;. along the cause.
-The fact that this jutlgriicnt ha.--
been rendered 'ur' l\Ir. Just-ice liutr' oi the -Suprernli, (‘our't, i'ar rcriroveti i`rc-ni the sphere of politics and politicians,
li
will give the .iudiznicrrt its t`nii status-
to the people of t‘anadIi. This Judg- ment of thc Central Appeal Judi-Z0 IS
still further emphasises the main idea of the Military Service Bill. which is that selective military service is what the act demands.
In his judgment renderedtoday the
(Ientral Appeal Judge gave out that the governing consideration wa.-, in this particular ca-so "that where from | u given family one or more members rare already merfribers of the Canadian
expeditiQ_nary force every considera- tion wou d point to the propriety'of a single remaining member being grant~ ed exemption.
Two Judgments oi' Mr. Justice Dun’
cannot to well be considered by the' ‘people of Canaria as the spirit of the -:ict is that of Justice shall prevail in tile ~'0nsuli.ntion of every case and also that the act will bc r'obbed t'.i` nearly all the terror that has been
,c_i-eate<_i. by the politicians' opposed io l IC IIC __
