The best mentin both political parties believe that the present Military Service Act meets the conditions more nearly than any other in sight; they know that voluntary service is practically at an end, and that if ~ the Military Service Act is suspended Canada is practically out of the war. Sir Wilfrid Laurier has stated in his manifesto to the people of ,Canada that, if returned, he will “proceed no further with the Military Service Apt.” . To support a Laurier can- didate is to vote for proceeding no further. Quebec alone of all the provinces is likely to be pro ty unanimous on the question, Where “gil 1’-rince Edward Island’s four representatives stand?

The Opposition leader should also point out that the British people have seen no white bread for many months 'lhey use a special war bread, which costs less than the white bread which Canadians still enjoy.

When it decides which of these men is . the more desirable as a representative in this crisis it should pledge its una- nimous support to that candidate, should an election still be necessary. We do not speak as M-r. Lefui:g.ey’s mouthpiece but we feel sure he will be satisfied with the verdict, no mat- ter whether he or his opponent is cho- sen. Is Captain Read willing to go ' before such a convention and put on record his allegiance to Sir Wilfrid Laurier and his opposition to the plat- form of the Union Government? “There is yet time to avoid party strife in this country by eliminating an election. One man must not be permitted to block the way.” lt is to be hoped that Captain Joseph Read’s friends and advisers will induce him to accept this suggestion. i - ___.___.0__._. .\'|l.\l§l. \\'l‘I |.l'I'|` 'l`|ll<].\I (i()`.’ Major Macphail in the course of his admi- rable lecture last night, said that by Feb- fresh forces ai'e available.
