TEURSDAY NOVEMBER, 1941 Drew CaRls For Unit: Not Political Issu~e "Every one to whom I spoke in Britain recognized that this was flot something the individual. could decide for himself . . or her- self, but that it was necessary ta have compulsory, selective, ser- vice if they were ta do their jobs. What interested me mast was the farmers. They discovered and pointed out ta me that if it had not been for compulsory service they would not have been able to 4pchieve the stupendous increase .gwihwas so important in pro- viding food for beleagured Bri- taire, because they would have lest their farm warkers to the armed or industrial services which could pay much higher wages. As it was, those who were needed on the faims were kept on the f arms where their services were most supremely valuable." ThiL was part of the report which Col. George A. Drew, the Ontario Conservative leader, brought back 10 Canada after two months spent in Britain, in an address before a packed audience of the Empire and Canadian Clubs o! Toronto last Thursday. Keep Men On Farmas In a strong, emotional and stir- ring address he told with new conviction the story of a nation that had found itself in ils Most desperate moments; and o! an- other nation - Canada - that must follow the pattern of un- self ish unity Britain has set, if it is to survive.

Dre w Ontario Conservative leader, leaving 10 Downing St., London, England, after an interview with Winston Churchill on October 101h. ini public life who has, on ail oc- casions, in discussing the war, said something about agriculture andC the necessity of viewing it as in1 the forefrant of national effort.j Upan this largely hie bases his i contention that complete national1 mobilization is now imperative. 1 He continued:1 "We must mobilize in ful bu- man and material resources with-s out further delay. There must be equality of service and of sacri- fice under a universal compuilsory selective system. Nothing else willc pr oduce the manpower we need s0 urgently. Nothing else willr keep the men on the farms andc in the factories who are needed there. Nothing else is truly de-È mocratic i a war of survival, such as this is. No Political Issue "This is flot, and must flot, be a political issue. It is the duty of the Government in power in this or any other democracy ta act upon the knowledge i their pos- session that the dreadful threat ta our national existence can be met i na other way. ."Let me read ta you the words of Winston Churchill, would ta God we had many mare of thern, lest there be any wha say this is not a responsibility a Gavernment should take an its awn autharity: "If, mark that Word, the battie is ta be won, we ,must provide aur men with ever-increasing quanti- ties of the weapons and ammuni- tion they need. We must have, and have quickly, niore airpianes, mare tanks, more shells, mare guns. There is impeiaus need for these vital munitians. . . .

The in- trests cf praperty, the haurs o! labar, are nathing campared with the struggle for lifé and honor, for right and freedam, ta which we have vawed aurselves."
