to
the

police

Forty-one

It
savs:
"Prime

King's
victory
in
Canada's
overseas'
conscription
crisis
adds
another
significant
link
to
the
chain
of
compromise
by
which
the
Dominion
has
maintained
its
unity
during
the
war.
"Canada's

their

Mr.
King
lias
won
a
113-70
mandate
in
the
House.
But
the
issue
was
not
precisely
joined.
A
separate
motion
showed
French-speaking
Canada's
disapproval
of
the
Government
conscription
of
home-army
draftees
to
make
up
the
losses
in
volunteer
overseas
divisions.
Mr.
King
obtained
his

A
vote
ot
confidence
by
an
appeal
to
the
safer
issue
of
general
support
of
the
national
war
effort.
"The
fundamental
issue
between.
French

is

Canadians
think
of
themselves
as
Frenchmen.
It
is,
rather,
that
they
have
not
yet
come
to
think
of
themselves
internationally
as
Canadians.
"The
situation
was
aptly
illustrated
by
a
public

made
during
the
middle
of
the

The

performed
285
miscellaneous
duties
during
the
month.
These
included
a
broad

of

The
re.por,t
stated
that
an
"unsatisfactory"
condition
exists
concerning
unemployed

casually
employed
girls
and

in
the
city.
It
added
that
"some

in

but
agreed
that
this
was
not
a

Canada
as
an
independent
country?"
The
majority
of
the
English-speaking
Canadians
answered
"yes."
A
majority
of
French-speaking
Canadians
answered
"no."
For
French-Canadians
generally
have
not
perceived
the
implications
of
the
progress
which
the
Dominion
has
made
toward
genuine
independence
within
the
British
Commonwealth.
"After
the
war,
that
independence'
from
London
will
undoubtedly
increase
without
endangering
the
final
bonds
which
link
the
Empire.
Then
it
will
be
the
task
of
Canadian
states-'
manship
to
address
itself
to
the
deen-
er
integration
of
the
two
racial
groups
which
comprise
the
Dominion."
What
Decides
Wars
.
In
military
language
the
objective
of
all
operations
is
destruction
of
the
enemy's
will,
to
resist..
We
need
to
be
reminded
of
this
as
much
when
our
forces
are
making
spectacular
advances
as
during
a
period
of
heavy
fighting.
War
is
not
just
an
immense
football
game,
with
progress
toward
the
goal
measured
in
yardage.
In
war,
territory
is
important
only
insofar
as
it
bears
on
the
weakening
and
ultimate
destruction
of
the
enemy's
armed
power.
This
is
not
said
to
gloss
over
the-
fact
that
just
now
the
Allies
on
several
fronts
are
fighting
grim
.and
costly
.battles.
It
is
said
to
help
draw
attention
away
from
the
miles
to
Tokyo
and
to
Berlin,
and
to
focus
it
on
the
real
factors
in
military
success'.
Recent
encouraging
advances
of
the
Allied
armies
on
the
western
front
may
be
correctly
weighed
not
in
the
miles
of
ground
gained,
but
in
the
resources
denied
to
the
Germans
and
in
the
units
of
the
enemy's
army
put
out
of
action
in
the
process..
