The Govcrnittettt is tightening up on Reservists who are not prepared to go overseas. “Are you willing to g0 0n active service as soon as you can conveniently settle your affairs?” This ques- tion in various forms is being asked thousands of iticmbcrs of Reserve Army units and hints at a new policy in ntilitary training. In some units men who are not willing to go on active service even six months hence are being struck off the strength of their units. The Department of Na- tiunal Defence has presumably decided that it is no use spending funds lraiititig men who have no intention of taking an active part in the war effort.

The death of Viscount Wakefield of Hytlte, one of Britain's greatest philanthropists, is a case in point. I-Ie died at Beaconsfield, Buckingham- shire, at the age of 8t. A modest and kindly titan. his charity knew no bounds, He gave fin- ancial help to scores of hospitals and other charitable organizations. It is estimated that his total disbursements in this direction alone must have been well over five million dollars. His hobby was aviation, and he spent money freely in pioneer work. lle also spent $5,000,000 in building motor speed boats, and another five million dollars in ensuring for Britain her su- premacy on land, water, and in the air. He was born at Wavcrtree, Liverpool, the son of a Govcrittncitt official, and entered an oil brok- cr's office there. He became the head of G. C. Wakefield & C0., Ltd., possibly the biggest firm of oil refiners in the world. He took an active part in public affairs and in i915 was made Lord Mayor of London. a u 4i n- In the House of Commons, turning to his political opponents, Mr. Lapointe said that every one of the candidates of the official Op- position was a National Government candidate. Those who were elected and those defeated were listed in the Parliamentary Guide as “N.G." meaning National Government. This mention (ll the initials “N.G." brought roars of laughter from various parts of the House, iticltiding the (Tonservtitive seats. btit Mr. john MacNicol, Toronto Conservative, jumped to his feet to pro- test that the Parliamentary Guide was prepared by the Government. lVhcn Mr. Lapointe said it was not, Mr. .\IacNicol persisted that no one hail a right to list them as “N.G." and he added he ran in Toronto as a Conservative. When the Conservative leader, IIon. R. I3. Hanson, and two or three others rose to say they ran as Conservative derisive ztpplatise came from the Liberals. "There are onlv 39 of these members in the Ilnuse. whether or not they were all Na- tional (IUYCHIIIICIII candidates.” said Mr. La- pointe, "so does anyone say that the people of Canada wanted National Government? The Prime Illittister has no mandate to form a Na- tional Government; lie has a definite mandate not to form a National Government... Why try to divide Catirula by pretending to unite? My province (Quebec)? said the Justice Minister, “is unanimously opposed to that proposal. The int-re Itlenlion of it rouse-s such memories that 1t ‘Ii really a crime tn ntention the word.

The awarding of these contracts demonstrates still more cmclustve- ly that Nova Scotla has outbuild- lng facilities. Our leaders will do well to employ evcry cppcrtunlty to bring further orders to our yards. Nova Scale has faculties for building vessels of wocd and steel.

Mussolini Qutslmg (From e letter by Count Bforza, formerly Foreign Minister for Italy, tn the New York Times) Churchill has at last said —ln his speech as I read it tn Tne Times — What. 40,000,000 Itallsnl have been whlsperln for months "Mussolini is the lta an Qulsllnz." Churchill's definition explains and justfles why so many natur- ally brave young Italians refused to fight. a war whose successful conclusion -from the I-"asclt point. of view -would mean the definite enslavement. of Italy as a desp Germain protectorate. But. when one says Mussolini is Qul llng one admits that. Mussolini ls the very antithesis of Italy - what I have been saying for 15 years. Why. then. tn the same speech an allusion to “30 years o1 Italian cruelty" ln Libya? Any atslmilatton of Mussolini and Italy may not. only be a historical mis- take; 1t may become an indirect service rendered to the Italian Qulsllrtgl What Churchill should never fort-tel is that. one of tits duties u to show that he knows Mwsoltnf is not Italy. As an Italian who deeply loves hls most modest. coun- trymen. I hope that when and if the moment comes Churchill wtll show with facts that he know". that the Italian colonists who went. to Ethiopia to gain their lives have nothing in common with the Cianos and other braggadocics who wrote about, their s.~“<~ti~ inv when killing unarmed Ethiopians from their planes. May I expre s the silent hope of nmmy good honest Italian families that. the British Government will flnd it; possible to save the Italian colonists from native revenge. In doing so the British wlll show even to the humble t. of my coun- trymen that they are the allies of free Italy just. as when 8D years ago Gladstone branded the Bour- bon Kutz of Naples as "the nega- tion of God." \\\\\,\y 5ii0n1is"~, I 11,, "1 m “I (Mf\( ’,( ll I i t I‘ g u..- UIQIAII“ ~ fill up >111 nun . \_ n FREE I THIS LOOKS URI GOOD FIID TO M!
