arul swiatora fcmcbean kco etovii military service act important announcement to all exempted men and to the public generally xn dealing with the very large number of claims for exemption brought forward for consideration in connection with class 1 under the military service act it has occurred as was incvit- nblc that as a result of false statements and difficulties put in the way of investigation some individuals have secured exemption whose proper place is in the army it is not the intention of the government to allow these men to evade per manently their obligation to hear their part in the military defence of the country and of the ideals for which we are fighting to do so would defeat the purpose of the act and cause grave injustice to men in the second class necessarily called out to fill their places exemptions granted on false grounds it is therefore proposed to scrutinize carefully all exemptions granted to date m order to separate those which have been granted on false or insufficient grounds from those thnt are well founded with this object in view the various registrars under the military service act have been instructed to issue a series of questionnaires to exempted men these questionnaires must be filled up correctly and returned promptly under penalty of forfeiture of exemption for failure to do to exempted men who have changed address it is therefore important in their own interest that all exempted man who have changed their address since their exemption was granted and who have not already notified the registrar of such change should notify him at once under the regulations it is the duty of exempted men to keep the registrar advised of any change of address and failure to receive the questionnaire by reason of neglect of this duty must be treated as equivalent to failure to return the questionnaire after receipt citizens urged to assist in many instances information has been furnished by members of the public which has led to the cancellation of exemptions obtained by false or mis leading statements further cooperation of this character is invited the government regard it as the duty of al loyal citizens not only to the country but to the men at the front to assist in this way in securing reinforcements on a just and legal basis correspondence of thia character will be treated as strictly confidential and will receive the fullest investigation charles j dohbrty minister of j us tic correspondence should be directed to c lesslie wilson registrar under the military service act toronto
