strangest situation which baa wped in the second week of the great war is the lack of comprel by the dally newspapers and the generally in regard to canadas new role in wartime as pointed outfby this newspaper almost three weeks before the war was actually declared and since officially confirmed by our government at otta wa eirtphasls this time is not to be put hundreds of thousands of troops overseas but on the job of mak ing canada a tremendous supply base for britain and the gigantic task be fore this country is not yet appreciated by the dtlsens of canada fervent imperialists are already hol lering about canadas slowness in training men and sending them across the atlantic a few newspapers have carried editorials of criticism against a policy of holding bade fighting forces at a time when others in the empire are rushing men toward the front lines what these men do not realise that the policy canada is pursuing one suggested by britain it is ion who believes that canadians can per form more valuable service lor the em pire now by rolling up their sleeves in factories and on the tarm than by de pleting the ranks of industry and agri culture to swell the total of lenllsted men london knows that only a mmyy will stave off aerial warfare over bog- land and the resultant hampering of industrial life in their country and london sees that in canada they have the best opportunity to keep up the manufacture of supplies without inter ruption and the insurmountable point is that canada s limited population cannot adequately take care of her industry at home and a large fighting force over seas readers will recall that in this col- umh four weeks ago an observer at september weddings woton at the home of mr and mra how ard leavens plcton on saturday then
