Continued from yester- day's Guardian: Mr. Ralston: There are twi O! three questions I have been try- One was in reference [to a. remark made by General Mt‘- INeughton with regard to the order in council when he first spoke. I that the order in council covered .iall the men in the N. R. M. A. I do not think he was putting a egal interpretation on the order what led him to make that state- ment and just what ' mind. Did I misunderstand h" Mr. McNaughton: The anstv yes. to the best of my legal knowl- edge, although I do not claim to |be an expert. - Mr. Balaton: I want to under- ystand Just what the situation is. ‘because, as I understand the 0rd. ter in council, it covers only N. R. M. A. to the numbers approved by the governor in council. It covers only such members of the N. R. M. A. as are specified and approv- ed by the governor in council. 1t ,does not cover all the N. R. M. A. There is no action with regard to any of the N. R. M. A. except the 16.000. asvI understand it. It does say that if further number of the . R. M. A. are specified by the governor in council and approved by them. then the minister may Yeqilire them to serve. But there is |nn action taken with regard to the N. R. M. A. beyond the 16,000 men- tioned in this order in COllnCll The Point Mr. Mackenzie King: 1| not the point this? The order in coin-tell is broad enough to cover all N, M. A, and the minister 1.5 DOW given by the order in council the rlghtto deal with the‘ numbers mentioned there and to deal with further numbers subject to he agproval of the governor in con»- c Mr. Ralston: ‘I say that that power always existed under the need an order _ to authorize the gov- ernor in council to approve the numbers. That power has always been there. The only action which was taken in the order in council is the approval by the governor lri council of N. R. M. A. person- .ne1 to the number of 16.000 who lmay from time to time ltercaftev be required for training. service or duty within the United Kingdom or IIIVEUTODGBD or Mediterranean operational theatres. That is all that the order in council does as I understand it. I do not want m argue a legal question. but I thought from a remark made by General McNaughton that he was misapprehending the terms of the order. or that there was something ‘in it perhaps that I had missed. | Just one thing more. The stig- gestlun was made I the other side of the House .h.it all rehabilitation benefits should be extended to the men called up under this order as are extended to ‘general service personnel.

PAGE THREE __. ‘i of Commons ito serve the world over. Mr. Mackenzie tVaricouver Cen- tre): My hon. friend is (H1316 "0?’ irect. "Service" under section ? of ithe War Service Grants Act. 1944. its defined as follows: "Service" means time served on -active service in the forces while ‘enlisted or obligated to serve writh- out territorial limitation. or time served on active service in the Aleutian islands." That might llllVfi to be airicnrled ln the light of the statement nzadc hi" the lioii. tnember. Volunteer or Conscript‘! Mr. Ralston: The point is that these N.R.M.A. men get no war seivice gratuity wliaterct- tinder the order in council oi the present time. The second is that if t“ enlist for general service they w get tull war service gratuity. brings me to my next question. Do I understand that the procedure is that, lei us say. the Elgin bat- talion-I do not think there is such a battalion but we will take ‘i132 name-is selected bv you as one of the battalions which ls to be included in the 16,000. and a notice goes from headquarters to the dis- trict and from the district to the battalion that the battalion and all the personnel therein are hereby required to SEITO’! That goes. Then do I understand that after I. who happen to be a rear rank private that battalion, receive notice that I am required to serve. and t-ompulsorily, overseas. and am being dispatched overseas under this order in council. may then come in and volunteer? Do you think that is very much like "volunteering"? I did not see what the point was about it; that jwas all. I thought they were lgolng to be given an opportunity C." I. 5O lino were conscripted. volunteer right up they go into the they now the time loverseas? ' You see what I mean? I want to ..see when the privilege of becom- ;ing a volunteer ceases. He is con- ‘scrlpted; he is dispatched overseas iunder this order; lie is put on n boat and sent over there; he la still required to compulsorlly serve; but somebody says. "Oh. but ‘ou have the right to volunteer?" W an does that right to volunteer end? Does it ever end? Can he vomn- teer after lie is wounded and bark in hospital: can he then be turn- ed iriw a volunteer? Mr. McNaughton: I must say the hon. member is posing a legal conundrum that I would want some legal advice on. Mr. Ralstozi: No, 1t is riot I legal point. ‘ that they i i Eirtenelon O! Service Mr. McNaughton: I would thlni the actual extension of the man's service, which is what this is. Sn a new area, would take effect 'rom - when he went on board ship. Mr. Ralston: No. extension o! service surely ttiku effect the minute he receives this require- ment from the department. from the district; he has then become liable to serve since he is a person "to be dispatched" under tlic terms or the order. Do you intend. then, shall I say-I am not posing any legal question-that at some stage the right to volunteer should full right to volunteer up to that time. _ Mr. Ralsioii: I do'nut see why -thcre is a "full right" any time as far as that goes. 1 do not know ttliat it is any right at all. You have to stop it some time, surely. I must say that I never thought ‘until the general spoke that there ivas any thought that after I bad thud tny service extended and had become liable to and ordered over- .se:is. then after that that I cou! ‘the "coiivertcd"—that is the tvor gci tlic lctw officers of the crotvrt ,:tiid the department to advise me. ‘I am not skilled on that ifnattor. - Mr. Ralsion: But it did seem to nie it xvas quite inconsistent that ra man who had actually been t-td- -cred overseas under the OTCl€f~i’l- Icouiicll could thcii become a “vm- untccr." It is like a man after ne- ing arrested by the sheriff sibylny, I iviil go vulutitsirily." 13933115., q... sheriff is right with him.
