MARCH 1 "I say to Parliaments, and to the taxpayers," said Mr, Arnott, "that if war were to break out, you wou'd * send our young men, and there would not be any difficulty here in Canada to finance the implements of war. It should not then be hard to zsupport the young people in times of peace. It is a tragie situation y when young people go begging for * a job." Sees Inspiration in Visit. He suggested there should be fur-- ther emphasis in the textbooks to the services of Canadians, rather than to the lives of current dis-- ; tators. HMe believed their Majesties' visit would give an inspiration to youth, and that it should give to all an opportunity of voicing their ap-- preciation to the Mother Country. "When she is in trouble, in war, 1 say Canada is at war," declared Mr. Arnott. "There is no use of fool-- Iing ourselves any longer. We must share our obligation, and we must take the stand that we are 100 per gent behind the British Empire." To the debate, J. J. Glass, K«C. j smmmmmenmammennateti n * | Lib., St, Andrew, brought emphasis ; thai the principles and ideals which | made up the Empire-- the moral strength of the British people --was | greater than mere material sirength. He spoke quietly and with deep feeling of the persecutions of the Jewish race, and as a Jew, he said : "I am particularly happy in raising my voice to this resolution, realiz-- ing as I do that as long as we have a sovereign, there will be maintain-- ; ed within the Empire the principles | of liberty, deceney, humanity and . fair play." | Mr. Stewart said he was particu« | larly happy that in his maiden speech before the House, he was given the opportunity of expressing j | appreciation of the "priceless privi-- \lege of British citizenship." | He warned that while the Do-- minion as A whole held loyalty to the Crown, there were some sub-- | versive elements who, while enjoy-- . i'mg freedom and liberty, sought to | ldestro,\' the very thing they en--| jJoyed. ' _ We should tell the world that . we are proud of being British sub-- | jects," said Mr, Stewart. "We are * united by loyalty. The people we * R represent love British institutions and freedom and are determined to , ' preserve them." \ _The Conservative member saw in lthe resolution the spirit of a united kCanadn. Then, in calling citizens to a sense of their citizenship duties, '\he added: "If a country is worth , * fighting for, surely it is worth li\'-' ing for and to take an interest in so that it may be worth voting for.' Let us do our part in preserving P the unity of our country. 1 Mr. Conant emphasized that one . of the strongest links of Empire lay | in the Statute of _ Westminster, | # ! under which Canada assumed a new X status, but under which her rela-- | tion within the Empire remained as f a fact with the King in the role of & King of Canada. | Through the right of appeal to Ithe Privy Council, he saw cause for 5 deep satisfaction, in that having ob-- tained a constitution by the British Parliament, it was fitting that the same constitution should be con-- strued by a British tribunal. e "So in the final result in constitu«-- tional changes, we, as never before » + f are able to say, 'God Save the Kin'-. $# W. A. Summerville (Cons., River-- dale) and Goldwyn Elgie (Cons., Woodbine), also expressed support for the resolution.
