Some ,Ei-iii-ansion lll Korean Force Provided For

OTTAWA. Sept. IOT-(CF) - Canada's permanent navy, army and air force have been placed on a war footing and Canada's Korean commitment has been widened to allow the sending of a total oi 15.- 000 men to fight aggression in that South Pacific battleground.

This was disclosed in the Com- mons Saturday when Defenct-. Min- later Claxton announced the pass- age of an order-in-council placing the country's forces on active ser- vice in the face of Communlntnts threat to the peace of the world.

The order-in-council said:

"In order that officers and men of the Canadian forces. not ex- ceeding 15,000 in number at any one time. may most effectively participate in action undertaken by the United Nations to restore peace in the Republic of Korea. the com- ponents of the Royal Canadian Navy. the Canadian aiwny and Royal Canadian Air Force that are referred to in the National De- fence Act. as the regular forces. are hereby placed on active servicc.

It was the first mention of any specific figure for Canadian forces to Korea. There was no debate on the order-in-council

Training Underway

At present Canada is recl'i.'ii.lr.g a special army brigade--three regiments of infantry, artillery and ancilliary troops-and has raised 8.300 men for it. Traiirini: for these men is under way and they will probably be brought to- gether before Christmas for train- liig as a brigade.

After that the brigade probably will go to Japan for final sharpen- ing up. before going into action.

In the senate Saturday royal as- sent was given to the legislative measure which cleared the way for Canada to dispatch the nnny's spcciai force to Korea or else- where.

Royal assent was given by Mr. Justice R. A. Taschareau of the supreme court of Canada. acting as deputy for the Goverrror-Gener- al. His action authorized the Gov- ernment toplare units of the force; on active service to back Canada's United Nations obligations.
