OTTAWA, Nov. 17.-The military side of défuohilization of Canadms army overseas has been compietlnl and is readyto be put into ops:-al.ioll immediately peace is declared and the higher command of the Allies consents to the withdrawal of tl-cops. Therquegtlon of -precedence for the returning Canadian troops has been carefully gone into by the special Canadian committee on demobiliza- tion which has been working im Eng- lan dand Canada since 1917. At first it would appear'that the first battal- ions on active service should be the first to_ be demobilized, but it has been pointed. out that alll the/se old battalions ‘have receifved new drafts and the proportion of service `in say the first division is little different to that in the fourth divisllon__ Every battalion in the line has been rein- forced to at least tive :times its orig- ' inal strength. _ The possibility of bringing Co.na.da's troops hs.ck_ by units was carefully gone into, and it was decided that the practical should be considered with the sentimental. On- the close cooperation between the military aide and the economic has of osmoslltmlon,_n was aecldea that it would be better to first return _ men whose trade classification show- ed were was lmmea.la'te` 'need for' them from an industrial point of view. The question of married and unmarriedvmen was also fully gone in- to. Preference is to be Silleli £0 mar' ried mon because of their heavier responsibilities. This class, UMIST the scheme, was again divided and the order of their return will depend on the length of time they have been away from home. Tlien comes men in accordance with their length of ser- vice overseas. it has been decided, in- order to pre- vent unnecessary croslntravelling in Canada, and delay ln returning the men to their homes todo this sortin8 in France and England before em- barkatilon. ~ ` Some Figures - The military scheme of demoblli- zatlo_:l of necessity comes first. The number of Canadan troops overseas. according to thc latest figures was 286,304. _ - An estimate of the lluulber of nlcll to_bc discharged based on the num- ber recruited by provinces ie in round numbers: Ontario. 121,500. Quebec, 39,500. New Brunswick, 12,500. Nova Scotia, and' Prince Edward ls- lnnfl. 15,500. Manitoba, 83,500. " s Saskatchewan. 18.500. Aflbenta, 21,500. British Columbia, 25,500. . For the purpose of delnobiiization Canada has been divided into twenty- oue dispersal areas and men are to be allowed to return to _any M011 901' octed by them, regardless of the place of _previous residence- or enlist- ment. The rate of return to' each are _ will be in accordance with t-he N0' Dortidn that the number deairii18 W return to such area bears to the en- tire force.-.'1‘bs men will be returned im standardised _drailts of 500 all » ranks. _ ' _ I-t is the intention of the lullitla de- partment to discharge men illlmed- lately on reaching their dispersal ur- ea so that they may quickly return to cllvil life. All necessary work ill connection with documentation and medical boards will be completed before the dlsembarkation of troops in Canad- and'the -troops will he immediately en- trained and transported im a body, without delay, to the dispersal stat- ion, _it is anticipated that a draft ar- riving in he morning can be disband- ed if desired before night. Soldiers’ Wives The problem of the return to Can- ada of the wives and families of sold- lers who are at lpresent in England, estimated at about 35,000. has been entrusted to the lepartment of immi- gratlon. Every effort will be lnade to return to Canadx~'~»-tllese famlliles quickly and in such a-way ns not to retard transport of troops. The des- irability of having the soldier‘s home re-established before' his arrival is fully appreciated. v Pr'esident;_Wi_lson - 'Goes to France .1- WA-sl-llNG'roN, Nov. 17.- rl-e-slr»ir.g| t General Smuts Addresses U_S.

Canadian enterprises must now look to' foreign countries for the de- velopment of trade. Eastern Siberia is undoubtedly one of the nlost pro- mising fields, and the Canadian Trade Commission which has been establish ed in Siberia for some time reports ill glowing termsof the possibilities for after-the-war expansion. Sir' George Foster, Canadian Minis- ter or Trade and Colnmercen-is par- ticularly anxlous that a Canadian bnllk should establish at Vladlvostok, for the purpose of encouraging commerce between Cullud-alalld Siberia.
