Mackenzie King announced last night that Parliament will assemble November 22. Mr. King stated that the Speaker, Hon. J. A. Olen, was satisfied that it was in the public interest to hold a session earlier than was planned. It had been at first intended to convene Parliament on January 31. No reason was given for the decision to call Parliament earlier. The Canadian manpower crisis blazed up to a new climax today as federal legislators prepared for, the tipcning of parliament. The Prime Minister's calling together of parliament last night was a surprise move. Shortly afterwards a Canadian Press staff writer reported that the liberal leader will likely ask for a vote ot confidence on the government's policy of continuing the voluntary system of overseas reinforcements. When the Commons adjourned last August 15 the date for reassembly was January 31, 1915, unless some emergency arose. Mr. King said last night that Speaker James Glen, is satisfied that it is in the public interest that the House should meet at this time. The calling of the House follows the crisis created Sunday when Former Defence Minister Kalston took issue with Mr. King's statement last Wedncs that Canada's home defence army be conscripted for overseas service immediately. Following this report, said Col. Ralston, Mr. King asked for his resignation from the defence ministry. According to the Prime Minister's radio address to the people last Wednesday, Mr. King approached Gen. A. G, L. McNaughton after Col. Ralston had reported to the cabinet, and asked the former overseas commander his opinion. Gen. McNaughton indicated that he believed the voluntary system of reinforcements was adequate. He became defence minister upon Col. Kalston's resignation. Some Ottawa sources believe that the calling of parliament will mean that the question of reinforcements will be thrown open to a full dress debate in the Commons and whether or not the governments goes to the country, immediately in u general election will depend on how united the" Liberal party is behind the administration. The Liberals have a large majority and, unless the party is split within its own ranks, it Is impossible for a vote of lack of confidence to be carried. There are 161 Liberal mem-(Contlnued on page 2) ' ' CANUCKS PRISONER CROP TAKEN AT BOULOGNE This front line danger sign canCnow be safely ignored outside Boulogne, important French port city, as the attacking Canadians; have cleared the area of Nazis.
