PULLEN, MANAGING-EDITOR APRIL 22, 1942 We have urged before but we feel we must repeat the desirability voting and voting "Yes" in the manpower plebispite Jjext Monday. Indeed, it is more than desirable to do so. It is imperative that we should do s6 that the government mav see how we all stand in the war effort. Premier John Hart has concisely summed up the case for a "Yes" vote as follows: "Invents during the past two and a half years, have been of such nature as to change Canada's position and make it far more vulnerable than it had been originally. The strength of our enemies has been increased greatly by Japan's entrv into the war. Our foes have marshalled the total of their manpower and every possible resource) into a. gigantic effort to enslave by one crushing blow, those nations whose people cherish liberty above life. "On April 27, a manpower plebiscite will be submitted to the electors of the Nation, which asks the people of1 Canada to release the government from any obligation arising out of any past commitments restricting the methods of raising men for military service. "The people of this province are aware of the critical situation confronting the United Nations. I feel confident that they desire an all-out effort on behalf of Canada for the preservation of liberty and conclusive victory and that that desire will be reflected by an affirmative vote to the plebiscite. I appeal to all British olumbians to exercise their franchise on April 27, and sincerely hope that the privilege will be used to the fullest extent, the plebiscite endorsed in the affirmative, and the last shackle restricting Canada's war effort removed." People's Rights .. . Dr. William Temple, Archbishop of Canterbury, has declared in an article that decent housintr. education, sec urity, leisure, liberty and a voice in business are the rights e 11 i i He writes: "Christians are entitled to call upon their government to see before itself the following objective and conditions, pursuing them as steadily and rapidly as opportunity permits. "1.
