When ithe camp was started soon after the beginning of the war, it was Austrian aliens that were sent in. They were 1 for the most part a, quiet, inoffensive tl lot.' They didn't tied a pen for guard- ing them. They were given work in helping to clear the land'and paid tor their work. All that was required was _ that they report to the officer in _ charge every morning. But about two' ', years. ago the Austrians were taken _ away antiAiermans sent in. The guard- ing of them became quite a. different matter. Then "pen" then became a, necessity. This is an enclosure cover- ing about ten acres. It is formed of [ barbed wire on' posts about twelve feet high, the strands of wire in the lower part being only a, few inches apart. Then about six feet inside of this is another similar one, and a. third in which the posts, instead of being plac- ed upright, are set,‘pojnting inward, at an angle of 45 degrees. ‘To nego- tiate that an effort for freedom would tax even German ingenuity. But even that is not the greatest obstacle be- tween the German prisoner and free- dom." Just outside the enclosure there are soldiers on guard uninterruptedly, night and day, with loaded and bay- oneted rifles, so that escape is practi- cally impossible. There are at present over twelve hundred prisoners, ghard- T ed by‘nearly tour hundred soldiers. Why these prisoners and soldiers are kept here at such great expense to the (country no one here seems to under- ‘stand. Alyout two hundred prisoners 'were taken away and deported last winter. _ A few days ago I saw a copy of a letter written from Germany by one of those deported to a, prisoner: still here. It was dated June, 4th.

I shall not hurl back at him such compliments as he paid me in great profusion, but I may [be permitted to say that he enjoys the complete confidence and respect of the Directors and of the Canadian people. The shareholders’ interests could not be in safer hands. I After so many years ot business and personal association it was somewhat of a wrench to my fellow, Directors as it was to me to alter our relations by permitting me. to retire from the Presidency, but they felt as I did. and as I hope you feel, that it was best for the future of the Com- pany. , ct traffic cor ture op aim moved trans IvEHtly requir Every building on the Exhibition Grounds is crowded to Capacity al- ready, and there is no more space available inside or on the grounds, ’Many applicants are _ being turned, away, and-Manager John G.
