The grave closes today over the remains of one of our finest citizens in the person of Mr. Isaac Carter. He will bc greatly missed, for though no orator, or participant in public dis- cussion, he was always ready to give the benefit of his business advice to all who sought it, and in Church. lodge and tcmpcrcnce affairs he was most assidious and consistent. It is a curious coincidence that in the same week another of the firm, Mr. Walter E. Burke should also be "called hence." Like his employer, Mr. Burke was an ideal citizen, but unlike Mr. Carter, he did take part in public affairs. and served his fellow citizens faithfully and well in the City Council,

Will It come to us here that each region must provide all that is necessary for existence to cc- ononiize in transport facilities? Lord Leathers, British Minister of Shipping and Transport, is putting into effect iiuch a scheme of national dis- tribution aimed at cutting out all wasteful haul- age and insuring the maximum transport space for munitions in great Britain. Foodstuffs man- ufactured in the South will, generally speaking, be consumed in the South and Nortlierncrs will have to be satisfied with Northern products. Hotels will take stipplics of local products. Householders will take coal from the nearest col- Iieries. “All avoidable cross-hauls are to be eli- minated," Lord Leathers told a gathering of the British Association of Refrigeration, “and the haulage of goods ovcr long (listanccs curtailed. In this way we shall insure that rapid develop mcnt of our war industries shall not outpace the speed atid capacity of transport.”

Two Views 0f“ “Total” War

(Montreal Gazette)

Yesterday Winston Churchill pro- tuised the brltish people “definite curtailment of amenities, further inroads on comfort and convent- euce, another instalment of toll and sit-eat." as he announced conscrip- tion o! men up 00 fifty, boys down io eighteen and g half. and single women of twenty to thirty. Only one disenttng voice was ralsed when he finished; Thomas Horabln, Liberal M.P., for North Cornwall, sald: "There wlll be dlsappolngment that the Prime Minister has not gone much further in organizing us for total war"

How much further could the Bri- tish Prime Minister go? Well, he could conscript married women for the armed forces; they are exempt- ed. even when (liildless, although of course they are subject to coit- scription for industrial work. Also, he could draft. single women for ‘lethal and combatant duty." now reserved for volunteers as far as women's units are concerned. He didn't promise not to do any of these things, for as he said, "the crisis of manpower and woman- poiver is at hand and will dominate

the year 1942." Last time Canada's wartime Prime Minister made a public

statement on manpower policy was November l2 of this year. Rising t0 protest with great bltterness against a news story that he had discussed conscription wIt-li Mr. Churchill. Right Hon. W. L.

C. C. F. Pussyfoots

(Evening News)

It I00k5 as If the C. C. F. ls g0- Ing to adopt the same pussyfcotlns attitude on the conscription issue as the Liberal Party. Prlviizely, many English-speaking members of the Liberal Party are reported frcim Ottawa to be of the opinion the time has come for compulsory selective service for overseas as well as home duties.

But. all are silent as far as the publlc Is concerned, dominated by Mackenzie King who has yet to be

sold on the Idea of rlskln losing sup rt from Quebec. The s lerice ls str‘ lng.

0n the other hand. the C. C. F. reiterates Its opposition to conscrip- tion of manpower befom ‘there has been an effective conscription of finance and Industry.’ adding "the most urgent need In Canada today Is to produce the equlpmeni and materials needed b0 arm those who iii-e already In the fighting ser- vices."

‘This is merely begging the ques- tion. The Russian campaign has shown how necessary it Is h) have vast reserves In manpower us well as equipment. The Brltlin have shown the same thing, having con- scripted men up to 45. Including skilled men, for army duties and replaced them with women.

If the C.C.F. has any foggy notions about this war not being n TOTAL war, then their leaders ought to take ii trlp to Britain and lntier- view No. 2 Britlslier, the areal Ernest Bevin, an outstanding Eng- llsh labor leader, Mr. Bevin ls now talking of conscriptlng women for industrial work-to make sure he has reserves of workers to back the reserves of soldiers.

When the CCF. her talks about producing to qulp the soldiers we already have, It Is talking about a limited war-a comfortable one 1X1 which we wlll all get rlch and have Io bear no more sacrifices than Io get eight cigarettes where we used to get ten for our dimes.

Only the Conservative Party has members who come out frankly and talk about coiisnrlptlon—and for the benefit of the C. C. F‘. followers, they are talking all-out conscription, for Ilmt ls what ls needed today, Conscription of man- power is oiilv a small phase of TOTAL WAR. Conscription In Carter's. must become what It ls In Britain-one hundred per cent.

The Conservative leader has p81‘- sorially pledged himself as fnvorlnr: compulsory selective service and there is no doubt that. he will pledge the party to that stand as soon as he is formally in a posi- tlon to do so. In the meantime. there ls no doubting the partyis position right now.
