going out these days have to do with some form of compulsory service the globe and mails recent question had certain stipulations that made summary of the answers only a confusion and prov ing little this week along comes one from another source asking a similar question in a different way we didnt write a reply to the latest one but forward ed a copy of the editorial already written on the sbbjeot but in the interval we have had conversa tions with folks in different walks of life and have found little favor of compulsory service for young men only but more for the all inclusive type of servfee including wealth as well as manpower ltitiisoacuriousjactthauthexhapswhouree more manpower brought into the armed forces will later in the conversation inject thefurther criticism of lack of material for those already in these forces just whyhe wants more men jo be in such an al legedly inadequate outfit has never been made clear to us strange as it may seem these accusations do not come from those who are busy in the forces we didnt see any evidence of it when we spent two days recently in being shown part of canadas army and equipment it was noticeable too that when an opportunity was given at the close of the visit to ask questions and get explanations there were no questions asked and only a vote of thanks for the opportunity of seeing part of the military ma chine the globe and mails question was if the dom inion government decides compulsory selective ser vice without limitations is necessary no group in canada should be in a better position to decide when it is necessary than the dominion government just why we need ajfthe pushing and shoving from less informed groups telling the dominion gov ernment it is necessary is more than we can fathom the voluntary system the free choice of individuals has not yet failed judging from other necessary- recent enactments when the doinion government decides a coisrse is necessary we get it regardless of our likes or dislikes and when all are con vinced it is necessary there is little complaining heard v the operation of the industry or bualde itaeim- itoly within provincial or munlclpallioundarlea in this
