_ The following speech gn the Burp,
118 Ot officers ill England was doliv-`
39'! in lilo House of Commons by
eutCol. J. D. Taylor. who went
overseas as Commanding Officer of
the 13lst B. C.. Battalion, ii unit
which was found so well trained that
.the entire battalion was sen
_ _ t forward
to Elance as reinforcements within ten
days after arrival in England. Colonel
T“Yi°"'5 5D96<:h made a profound) imf
l1l‘9BBi011'\1D0n the members of the
House _of Commons and completely
demolished the criticism of those who
asserted there were “thousands of
lmemilloved officers fucking their
i“’9iB ill EIl8land or gndding about
the cit of London.”
Mr.  D. TAYLOR (New Westmin-
istori: Mr. Chairman, there is poi-
HOH Kas disenilnated in connection
with this war -from other quarters
than the trenches in the German line,
and there is sniping equally up dig.
.astrous to the _cause of 'the war as
that by the German sliarpshocters. I
am one of those colonels, command-
ini; oillcers, of whom the hon. gentle-
men ‘V50 ¢l»0t_tl1e part of political snip
91's In Canada speak so contemptu-
ously in this Ilouse and through their
press. _I think it is well that there is
one oi those commanding officers
present from London to answer face
to lace some of those who have jjusi
as much right to bo over there as wc
have hail, but who content tliomselv
cs with discouraging the public mon
of Canada who dc/_attelnpt to sct an
example to so many others in Can-
fifiil WHO might be serving their coun-
IPY. but who decline to do so. One
feels almost asluinied to discuss sor-
vlcs to one’s country from tho low
.=it.n‘idpolnt of pay: but as ii command-
ing officer who did not put on his unl-
forin because of any pay attached to
it. I would like to sity that in the of-
fice whlchfl carry on at home. and
"Om Wilifiil Il iilfllo proportion of the
staff had gone to serve our country,
from the manager down -to the prim.
ers devil, the average pay of the
workmen in that office is the pay
that a commanding officer in the Can-
adian Militia receives for commanding
a regiment. I hope that is sufficient
Illustration, to convey to the iutcllig-
ence of some of those hon. gentlemen
to whom the pay oi' a commanding of-
ficer looms so large. that possibly
there is some other incentive than to
receive the some pay its scores of his
own staff that impels him to put on
the uniform. '
I would like to cite my case as an
example of what does piompt ii mem-
ber of Parliament to offer his services
nt the front. At ii certain stage in
recruiting in Canada, the then Minis-
ter c-f Militia called for 100.000 ad-
dltioiinl troops. We have about 100
infantry battalions in Caiiaila. so that
meant an overseasbattalion, in ntl-
dition to those already raised. from
each ot’ tlic infantry,`battallons in
this country. As I had the honour at
that time of commanding an infantry
regiment in Canada, l fel; that it was
an appeal to ine to raise mi overseas
battalion. and I promptly v_olunteered
to do it and I did do it.
As the Minister ot' Finance has said,
the personal infiuence of a command-
ing officer had a great deal to do at
iliat time In securing recruits. I feel
quite' sure that the fact that I had the
honourable position of a member of
the House of Commons gave me a
great leverage in going about through
my district and asking the young men
c~f Westminlstier district- not to go
to the front, but to come to the front
with ine. I may say to the hon. gentle-
man who says that the commanding
officers might go as prlvates that I
will forestall lils objection by telling
him 'that when l was of the age at
which men do go as prlvates, I went
to the front as it private in the ser-
vice of my country. I ani not of that
age" now und L could not go as a pri-
vate nor as ii lieutenant. If I volun-
teered I would not be accepted. But I
did raise it vary fine battalion in my
district because of niy personal ap-
peals, and, il' I do say it, because of
what little prestige I have in _that
district.
Under ordinary circumstances l and
my battalion might very wcll have
gone to the front as it unit. It was
our desire. Many ii political enemy at
home -because we have a few snip-
ers there, although In the West they
naked of me on the platform or also-
whero-: “Are you going to the front
_yourseIi."".’- the imputation being
that I was doing ii grnndr-tn|i'd play. I
answered them honestly and truth-
fully that it was my dei-ilre and my in-
tention to go to tho front. My bat-
talion arrived in England with thirty
others ln a convoy. a total of 14,000
troops. immediately after the terrible
experience on the Somme. The Cana-
dian Ilcndquarters in London were
confronted then with a demand for
the immediate services of about 19,-
which had just occurred, and it was
our fortunq when we arrived in Eng-
land, to- be selected as some of those
reinforcements which were immediat-
ely nent. I think all thc battalions in
that convoy except two were drafted
for that purpose. My battalion sent
400 men to the trenches within two
weeks of oiu' arrival in London, 100 it
weak later, and since lhcn they have
been going continuously. Now then.
which is the more glorious, which is
tlle more to be commended in a coni-
mnndlng officer. that. bein!! mei Wiiil

to the disappointment. seemingly, o
these gentlemen opposite- Colonel
Winseld of the 47th. had not been
shot. Major Conte second In command
of the 47th. and Major in my regiment
at home, had not been shot. They rc-
mained in command. Therefore, Col-
onel Taylor nnd Major Cunningham
of the recently-arr_lved regiment were
not able to go to the front. What
would the hon. gentleman have? Am
I to be condemned by him and those
like him because I took o battalion to
England? Arn I to be condemned 'be-
cause, having sent my men into the
firing Iinc, I come back and take up
my duties as a member of this I-Iouso?
I wi-Il show to some of these gentle-
men wlint the-ir criticism of unein-I
ployed officers means in some cases.
An instance arose in England in
Juno oi' 1915. A numbcr oi' senior oill-
ccrs becmno unplcasautly consclous`of_
their grcztt numbers in Englaud.‘
There were eighty majors, for Iu-
stancc. who said: “We dislike re-
maining hero; we came over to go to
the front; lc-g us go forward as supoi'~l
nnmorary lieutcnants." And they
went as supernnmerary licutenants.
Now, the supernumeriiry lieutenant
had almost less than no duties. He is
tho understudy c-f tho lieutenant in
<'-i1f1l‘§8 of it platoon. llc is uot‘quitc
so useful as ti. sergeant i|icliai‘gi‘f of
any section, becauiio tho sergeant has
been trained with the section from
thi-_ beginning and is more accustom-
ed to it tlniii the supernumerary lieut-
eniin; can be-. Nct afriiid of German
bullets. and perhaps too conscious of
the criticism such ns is oi'i’ei'ed in this
House tonight, these men said: “Let
us go over the pariipct with the men."
They went. Only twenty came back.
Are we to cheer in this. I-louse be-
cause in that one stroke we wiped out
sixty superfluous majors?
The hon. gentlemen asks why these
men are not sent home at once. The
answer is so plain that l wonder that
anyone should ask th(-_ question with
it desire' of c-btulning knowledge. If
asked with the idea that, being un-
answered, it will make it point io the
discredit of the soldiers oi' Canada,
the question seems more- intelligible.
I would -like to bear 'Ip upon the con-
sciences oi' some of these lion. gentle-
men the fact that the senior military
officer is not made In five niinutes.
And, as ii lakes a long time to make
bini, so it should take a correspond-
higly long time,to arrive nt. the con-
clusion that he should be discarded
and sent home. As the training pro-
ceedsin Canada. there are technical
courses of all kinds to qualify the
officers for the duties they are to ex-
ercise at the front. When we are ask-
e-d to send an officer io u school at
Quebec, to ii school at Ottawa, or Win-
nipeg, or Victoria, and I was asked
from time to time to send inlne, the
accompanying note nearly always isrl
Send ii senior of’i'lcer, ii` possible. And
properly so; because a senior ofllcer
should be qiialifleil to lead in every
branch of insti‘uction.‘ In the case of'
my bat'talic~n, nearly every senior of-
ficer had been tho subject oi' ii special
course oi’ training at some ol” these
schools, to the exclusion of the lunlor
officers. because the number was limi-
ted. '
Sir SAM HUGHES: They attended
several schools in some cases.
Illr. TAYLOR: Some of these ofllc-
ors had attended several schools, as
the former Minister of Militia re-
minds me. Now, what would have
been said oi' this Governmentif tho
moment those highly trained officers
arrived in London the were told:
"Since you cannot go iibrward wltli
your battalion, you: had better go
straight home?" Then we should have
had a political scandal. c »

military subjects we have beard dis-
cussed in the llouso as ii' they were
.y 6 verninent, would
be done, but which is not done b_
this seemingly neglcctful administra-
tion.
Wo are told that the administration
in London should grapple with thc
question of unemployment. 'l`hi-so
gani.lemen.irppos.ite must know- be-
cause they have read ii lu their own
proud- Ilarngraph after piirngriipli -
that the subject is being grappled
with. 'i`hcy know ibn; about two
months ago a bhard was appolntcd to
examine in _detail into tho standing
of every officer noi in sm-loiis employ-
ment in England; i.hrit this board
visited every Citnnilian crimp in Eng-
land, questioned all thc ofll-cars, as
well as men of other ranks, as to
their capacity and as to whether they
could profitably take up military scr-
vlce other than what they had gc-no
to England to do. The men were then
divided into three categories: those
who could advantageously bs sent to
the front and _be replaced in Engbmd
by others returning frc-ni the front;
those who could do nothing at the
front or in England, but might with
advantage be given permission to 1'e~
turn to Canada- .because you cannot
'return without permission-, and
those \vlio could profitably continue
to be employed in.Londc-ii or in any
other parts of England. ’I`iie question
was dealt with in thc most serious
manner at that time by o board of-
very competent officers. the majc-rity
oil whom had sean service at the front
some ot' whom had served with dis-
tinction there and, having come back
to Londrfn, found themselves tempora-
rily, unemployed. - ll' an ab`ui-in ,did
creep lu. they were instructed to sec
that that abuse was discontinued. and
they w_ei°e inspired with a desire that
it 'should be discontinued. No doubt.
as a result of the report oi’ that bo-ard
ofllcers have returned, opportunity
has been found to send officers. to
France, and every opportunity has
been taken to substitute thc services
of returned soldiers for services that
had been, performed in the Old Coun-
try by Canadians who had not been
to the front. \Vhcn the officers are
moved on under these circumstances.
I do not think they should he pillori-
ed as having been driven to do some-
thing that they were unwilling to do.
I prefer to take the vle\v that the
officers wiio go there, do so in good
faith, ready to lay themselves on the
altar of their country and to make
\vhate\‘ci~ sacrifices they niny be call-
ed upon tc- make. Do these hon. gent-
leman opposite realize for ii moment
that soldieriug 'is not eight hours’
work a day during six days of the
week? Do they realize that there ore' a
great many soldiers in England and
in France whc- are not ' In the fli-Ing
line; that there are ii great many pri-
vate soldlers who are unemploycdln
quite as wiile it sense as these officers
are unemployed, utid that it is absol-
utely true that these men are serving
their country efficiently and nobly?
We have millions of soldiers in res-
erve in England and France who are
not working every day, or six days
a. week. just thc some as ive have
some idle ofllccrs. These soldiers are
kept for the great. drive which we
all ant_icipz1t_o, and which only _ _can
change the condition i’rom that" of
apparent. stalemate now prevailinig.
Are they to be pllloricd as men, who
ore eating the broad oi' lilleneiii-i._ in
England? is it fair to our soldiers who
remain in Canada, having been train-
ed lwre. flint they should be pillorled
'ns is the custom today. not only oc-
casionally ln‘tho Ilouse, but also in
the party press? Arn they not just as
iiscftil to us in rcscrve in Canada,
wailing.to go to England and Franco
when they are sent for. its they would
be if we got -them out. of sight by
sending them- to England or to
Fraiice? Are" we improving
the cause of the- war by having noth
n
expression- of those who try to
serve the Empire. but who are' not
pei°niitted_t_o do so to the extent that
they desire? it sec-nie to me,as an offl-
cer. who -has had much experience in
recruiting, that more harm has been
done to tba cause of recruiting in
'Canada by the statem'cnts made this
session from the other side oi' the.
'House and widely dissemminated its
they have been, for political purposes
by the party press- the fountain-
-_honda_ of the poisoned political gas in
this country- than by any possible
'combination of errors on the part of
