3 The manipulation of the party inaohine was vary evident at the Winnipeg coiiven-, tionf As our readers know the convention was called at the instance of the Win-the- War Liberals with the-avowed object of arriving at _conclusions as to Canada s place in the warand the Liberals’ place in Canada. Leading Liberals felt that they could not follow Sir Wilfrid Laurier’s lead- ership on account of his attitude towards conscription and that they must either find a new leader or unite with Sir Robert Bor- den in his war policy- The idea struck ter- ror into the hearts of the partisan Liberals and the machine was at once set in motion. They must save Laurier, they must _prevent western Liberalism from identifying it- self with that fusion of Canada’s war for- ces which Sir Robert Bordeii-has been stri- ving for. And sofar as controlling the Convention went they succeeded, partially, at least.

The Mail and Empire, several days be-

forethe convention, accurately sized up the methods that would be employed by the machine and its forecast was fulfilled to the letter. “If the delegates,” says the Mail and Empire, “seemed too earnest in their desire to shove Canada’s war-work ahead, to be dissuaded, the scheming agents would ingratiate themselves by ap- pearing anxious also to put more vigor into war organization. But they would point - out that Western interest required this par- ticular policy, or that concession. The “big interests” would be pilloried as the main enemy. Utmost st_ress, if not misrepre- sentation, would mark their criticisms of the Borden-Government’s war administra- tion. The effort would be pressed home to convince Western Liberals that they ought to demand virtual control of the National Government-for were not their political requirements and views incompatible with union, in‘a War Government, with Sir Ro- bert Borden and such of his colleagues as would remain? If they could not obtain such an ascendancy, would it not be better to remain out and let Sir Robert Borden and whatever National Government he could form struggle on as best they could? Agents of Sir Wilfrid would do their ut-

standing aloof now, waiting for the elecu- tion, they would gain their ends more sure- ly and quickly- By professing ability to carry outa “Win-theWar” policy on volun- tary lines-though anyone knowing the facts knows how absurd that is_the Que- bec anti-war schemerswould try to lull and soothe' desire for war action, and gain support by emphasizing special _willing- ness to co-operate with the West in effec- ting desired domestic reforms. _

“Already certain manifestations of this

scheme-i)r’s play to rouse party bitterness are to e found in the attacks in some Sas- t ldxatchewan quarters upon Sir Robert Bor- en. These attacks are professedly based on the claim that Sir Robert is not forward enough in his war policy. They ignorethe fact that the Premier is the main mover in the effort to get together all the “Win-the- War” elements of the country so as to make possible more vigorous war effort. No party Government can, under the new, conditions lately arising, be strong enoughi to enforce.by itself the severe measures re-| quired. The occasion requires unity of pur-

piisg, anél mobilized poiliticag stilingth by a ana iansw o wan our our yearo

B/ar to be an active one. If the Western Li- erals recognize their duty to the nation, th'e'y7will foil the attempt of the Quebec

wan-obstructionists to use them-,and will assert- <;.¢ar.1ii their _<=911xi.¢_ti9_i1 thatour war needs`must`comé first, and a National War, Government, .ising above ordinary party-0

ism, is bestjit ed to provide fprkthem.”

In the early days of June when the

Win-the-War Liberals in the House of Commons, including Dr. Clark, Mr. Mc- Neely and Mr. Hugh Guthrie, rallied to the support of the Military Service Bill and re-
