OTTAWA, A`1\'\B' "Il-'°A‘S today's
meeting of -the Cabinet’ proposals for
taining advantage of the poecibiltiea
for a very large influx' of war orders
from the United States were under
consideration. Already within -the past
year or so upwards of one hundred
million cellar-s"wcl~tli or `er<ie`i-s fer
m~unitl.ons of various kinda have come
to Cana/da from -the United States.
The speedy equipping of an army of
five million men has taxed the organ-
ized output of the United States in-
lustzry to -the utmost. Canadian war
industries with three or four years of
organization and experience behind
them, and with -the peak' of the load
from British orders long since past,
are in a. position to handle a consider*
able proportion of the present load in
the United Smtea.

such reforms from the govern-ent
The war brought forth a demall foi
those who could do t hinge. Military
training is a lolnd of vocational edu
cation. Lt transforms a peaceful mar
into a capable soldier in a few months
The armyaiso needed thousands oi
skilled mechanics, whom dt had to
train inside of a year. Wihen the na
sion is in peril things can be don<
promptly alld thoroughly, and so they
can be -in peace. More knowledge ir
not so nlucll needed in war as thi'
power to get things done. Before tht,
war there was very little opportunity
outside of reformstories, prisons ani-
certaln. trades.'l`here was very little
opportunity to learn any trade. f
During' the w'ar we have .had to built
up vocational system for soldiers ani'
returned soldiers, which will revolu'
tionlze our industrial system. In will
‘returned soldiers began -to drlbbli
back. We knew no more about hov
to deal with them than a nineteen
ycar~old mother with her .first child. _
Tile returned soldier was not the
sanle man who had gaily gone fortl
to war. lie was restless, nervous, sul`
normal War and sickness ten/l t.,
eupress initrlative. Wlllell -he sheds hh
uniform he looks to resuming the olc`
life he has to grind away to support
himself and famlily, all of which was
done for him while he was in arms.
' if Canada were going to resume th/
els his without disturbance. ills re
turned soldiers must be put to col:
genial work. In every Canadian hoc
pital handicraft teachers were install
ed wi-til great success. The soldier:
soon were able to do good work. The)
are given clloico of all kinds of course
s, courses not avail-able to school
child.ren except in a very few cases
Classes for soldiers are four to five
hours a day. About one-third of thc'
returned men arc eager to learn al ‘_
they call; one-third are easily pert
alluded; the remainder are hard ti .
reach. .
il~"ormer wars produced discontent-
ed and incompetent cripples.
only so of our 500,000 canadian
soldiers have so far been blinded in
war; only 800 British soldiers. sixty-`
per cent. of tho disabled men are si `
from disease; only 40 per cont. from
wound-s. There are not a very large;
percentage who lose limbs. Crippled
soldiers have good allowance whili
being re-educated. Of the 50.000 o:,_-
our returned men_ 90 per cent.can re, `
tum to their old occupations; Oni!
5.000 ,need -training. They are being
given choice of 450 diiifsnnt oourlal,
whore they are taught trades from _
bottom to top. This can be done in sin
mon-the or so, for there is no waste
time in doing uneseentisl work ss in
the cases of boy apprentices whom
nobody bothers teaching... _
