"No word of criticism will be found upon the lips or in the heart oi any man who surveys with under- standing the situation in which France found herself." Mr. King said; ‘The plain facts are that me defeat of France has brought. the uar much nearer home to Canada. The British Isles are threatened with invasion not as a. remote possibility but B5 8n im- pending actuality." Alter describing the disposition of Canadian troops in Iceland, Newfoundland and the British Wcst Iudics, thus relieving the Allies from Lhese responsibilities, M; King announced his conscrip- tion proposal. Conscrlptipp for Home Defence no emphasized that men would be conscripted only for home de- fence scrvicc. Jnxing service over- seas to voluntary enlistment which was working satisfactorily. The measure would end with the war. Notional registration would con- stitute an "additional precaution against fifth column activities such as sabota a and espionage which oonceivaby might become more menacing as external threats grow more serious," the Prime Min- ister said.
