interesting commentary upon the
claim of Sir Sam Hughes that he
had "let up" in recruiting as a re-
sult of the Prime Mimister‘s sugges-
tion was a statement by Sir Robert
that from May 6 to June 6 (when the
fuse Investigation was on and the
Prime Minister temporarily ill charge'
of the Militia Department) Sllr Sam
had gone ahead and authorized
eleven new battli-lions.
Sir Sam followed Sir Robert with
a rc-iteration of his dtatement. that
the Prime Minister had asked lli-nl to
"let up" on' recruiting and that he
had heard Sir Robert had made' ll
similar statement to Mr. J. M. God-
frey, of Toronto.
