The Prime Minisâ€" ter spen% some weeks in England. He saw the inner core of the conditions. He came back from the front conâ€" vinced that the necessities of the case, the perils of the situation, made it abâ€" solutely necessary that our men should be sustained." Sir ‘George: ‘"Logic is good in its place and constitutions are most exâ€" cellent, ‘but neither logic nor constiâ€" tutions can be allowed to be a bar to the people‘s ultimate defence and ultiâ€" mate salvation." § L. .Sin Wilfrid: "Toâ€"day the Governâ€" ment brings down a measure to subâ€" stitute for voluntary service compulâ€" sory service, which the Government, from the day the war broke out up to May 18 of this year, said they would never resort to." \ Sit George: "Common sense teaches i]l;;'evt'hat if militia and armies are for the defence of a country, they should be applied at that point where, when \télel‘e\ls emergency and danger, the efficiency would be greatest. If the _;,ifx\gitegrity off the country is threatened, our place to do our fitting part in the ‘eontest is at the point where the ultiâ€" mate decision is at last to be made. My hon, friend would not let the miliâ€" tia stir hand or foot until the Hun was zviCtorious in Europe and in Asia, had made himself the preâ€"dominant powâ€" ‘er, and then, with his navy and army, landed on the shores of the St. Lawâ€" rence." & se 2.

Sir Wilfri¢: "The law of the land emphatically declares that no man in Canada shall be subjécted to compulâ€" sory military service except to repel invasion for the defence of Canada. Sir Wilfrid was followed by Sir Geo. E. Foster. ‘The following is The Star‘s summary of the argument of the leadâ€" er of the opposition and the answer of Mr. Foster: \ (Sir George: "Suppose that toâ€"morâ€" Tow morning the German army, \conâ€" '}jé,yéd by the German fleet menaced the shores of Canada and was about ftbflap'd on the banks of the St. Lawâ€" rence. Would my right hon. friend eome down to Parliament and say, ‘YÂ¥ou cannot act constitutionally un less you have a referendum? Is that a forced comparison? I think not, ‘T)'e,cau.se, to my mind, it makes very little difference, if this war be not won by us, whether the Hun toâ€"day is 3,000 miles away from Canada or only half a mile beyond our coasts. In either case the ultimate result would ‘be the same." 4. Sir MWilfrid change the laws people change / and not this Pa "That further consideration of this bill be deferred until the principle thereof nas been, by means of a reâ€" ferendum, submitted to and approved by the electors of Canada." Sir George: "There will be undoubtâ€" edly dissent; there may be dissension; but the people of this country are lawâ€" abiding people and a discerning peoâ€" ple, and they will hold to their ideals in this war and to the necessity of pushing them to the end. I take leave to doubt if organized and iinorganized labor in this country is not true to the puruposes of this war for which it has given so. much of its blood. As to the Frenchmen in Canada, he is & Sir George: "If the necessity is upon us we must act. And is there not an implied contract with the men whonm we sent forth to win a great world and Empiré fight? That is what they went forth to do; there is the contract, shall we make good, so that, as they fall, something effective shall have been done to guarantee that their heroic sacrifice has not been in vain? 6. Sit Wilfrid; ‘"The Government are producing a line of cleavage which is already too far advanced. I do not mean between province and province, but cleavage among classes of the same origin and the same language all over Canada. There is, in all the provinces of the Dominion, amongst the working classes, an opposition which is not wavering, but which is becoming stronger every day." % Sir Robert Borden moved the second reading of the Military Service Act in the House of Commons on Monday. He merely reviewed the statements made by him when introducing the measure two weeks ago. He was folâ€" lowed by Sir Wilfrid Laurier, who took a stand against conscription and will use his ability and his position in the House to defeat the measure. The resolution moyed by Sir Wilfrid calls for a referendum. The motion, which was seconded by the Hon. Frank OQliver, reads as follows: W9b. Sir Wiltrtid: "‘Having still in our ears the pledge of the Prime Minister that there would be no. conscription whatever, we granted voluntarily an extension for twelve months.

W. J. Hanâ€" na, member of the Ontario Cabincet without portfolio, has been appointed Food Controller for Canada. Copies of the orderâ€"inâ€"council provided for the appointment of a Food Controller and defining his duties and powers were laid upon the table in the Commons toâ€"day. In presenting them Sir Robert Borden said: "(1) Governing the prices of any article of food and the storage, disâ€" tribution, sale and delivery thereof. "(4) Authorizing the Food Control= ler to purchase, requisition, store, sell and deliver food." i8 s "I have further to inform the House that Hon. W. J.

"(b) To ascertain the food requireâ€" ments of Canada and to facilitate the export of the surplus to Great Britain and her allies; ""(c) To make regulations where he deems it necessary in the, public inâ€" terest, subject to the approval of the Governorâ€"inâ€"Council." . May Make Regulations The regulations which the Food Controller may make may be of the following character: For the purpose of 11{5'01\de1" the Eood Controller is to have the powers of a commissioner, appointed under the provisions of Part I., of the Enâ€" quiries Act. The powers conferred upon him ‘"may be exercised either independently\or in coâ€"operation with any department of the Government of Canada or any Provincial Governâ€" ment, with any department or officer of the Government of Great Britain or of any allied country vested with similar powers." _Powers of Controller‘ The orderâ€"inâ€"Council. under which the appointment has been made is dated June 16 and provides that the Governorâ€"Generalâ€"inâ€"Council may apâ€" point an officer to be known as Food Controller for Canada and to. hold office during his Majesty‘s pleasure. It continues: "(a) To make such enguiry and inâ€" vestigation as he deems necessary, for the purposes hereinafter .set forth, into the quantities, location, ownerâ€" ship and into the sources of, supply 0f any article of food used by the peoâ€" ple of Canada and into the prices at which the same is sold or held for sale, and the causes of such prices: "(2) Providing for the conservation of food and the prevention of waste thereof, and governing the consumpâ€" tion of food in hotels, restaurants, cafes, private houses, clubs and other places.

HANNA TO GONTROL FOON The debate will be continued for some days. On Tuesday Sir Sam Hughes was heard in a characteristic address in which he strongly favored the conscription measure, after chargâ€" ing that recruiting had been hampered by the action of the manufacturers whom, he alleged, were looking for cheap labor, and by the employment of German gogld by so called pacifists, who were employed to create the imâ€" pression that Canada had no business to be engaged in war. He was followâ€" ed by the Hon. Rudolphe Lemieux, first lieutenant of Sir Wilfrid, who most violently opposed conscription and even went so far as to say that the place for Canadians was at home on the farms. He was answered by a fellow Liiberal, Mr. Hugh Guthrey, of Guelph, who broke completely with Sir Wilfrid on the question. In the course of an able speech he declared that he was against a referendum, in favor of conscription and also of the extension of the parliamentary term. lawâ€"abiding citizen, and if he is conâ€" vinced that this war, to be won, must be won by throwing men into this conâ€" test more and more than we have, no one can convince me that the Frenchâ€" men will not walk side by side with his fellows in obedience to the law."

When the cards were all turned in the score showed that only one of the nine Weston rinks were up. The balance were down from 6 to 17 shots.â€" All were pleased with the afternoon and did not mind the defeats. The rinks who came out were all representative men of good bowling ability. The great game of the day was that beâ€" tween A. Niblock of Kew Beach and E. FE./Farr. These two fought it out all afternoon. First one up and then the other. By a careful and beautiâ€" ful draw Niblock was able to get the shot on his last bowl. Thus he was one up and one end to go. The last end was a fight. Each man was right on edge.. Niblock by a perfect shot dislodged the Weston shot with his last bowl. Ellaby Farr was not to be outdone. With a beautiful shot a little over a draw he came to the shot and laid three, thus winning/ out by the score of 15 to 13. Bcores (as follows: Victoria Weston Oliver James Cameron S. B. Sykes E. C.
