The Ottawa Citizen has the follow- ing: 'It was admitted by an authorized | official of the Militia Department that tenders were being called for soldiers' funerals throughout Canada, the ob- i ject being to ascertain exactly how much a funeral should cost. "Under the present Order-in-Coun- €l." states the official. "the Govern- ment contributes: anything up to $65 o the expense of burying a soldier. Why should the Government not ab ltain the fairest price possible, and thus save the country considerpble money at a time when every cent is needed? The fact that contracts are being called for does not mean that the funeral will be a less dignified or poorer one. In any case, the Gov- ernment is not charged with the to- | thorized to contribute up to $65." It medirs that the relatives, too, will be saved ceasiderable money, and need nok, 1 unless they wish, pay more than a very small sum towards the ex- penses."
