one of the firms prop erties militia important urges ove halton mp rud whiting has urged the government not to make any cuts in the armed forces reserves speaking in the commons last week the liberal mp said the reserves should be given special consideration because of their importance to youth their value in national emerg encies and their opportunity for patriotic expression the government is holding the line on defense in iu fight against inflation and cuts in reserve spending are expected he said although most mem bers will support the fight ag ainst inflation i do believe that serious consideration should be given to a nocut po licy in the reserve forces through the militia as it was formerly called thousands of young canadians over the years received important use ful training to make them better citizens he said he said the reserves have provided physical and mental stimulation as well as moral de velopment adding it has been brought to my attention that the dollar invested
