A
Great
Army
...
If
any
further
indication
is
needed
of
the
feeling
in
Britain
that
the
war
against
Germany
is
Hearing
its
victorious
climax
it
comes
in
the
announcement
that
the
Home
Guard
is
being
disbanded.
It
means
that
Germany
is
now
regarded
as
a
spent
force
able
henceforth
only
to
conduct
a
gesture
of
defence.
The
enthusiasm
and
energy
of
Britain's
civilian
army,
which
was
conceived
on
war's
outbreak,
stood
valiantly
by
through
the
dark
days
when
invasion
by
the
mighty
Hun
armies
was
a
menacingly
immediate
threat
and
became
developed
into
a
fierce
fighting
force
which,
if
necessary,
would
have
given
a
mighty
good
account
of
itself
had
it
been
ever
necessary
to
fight
on
beaches,
fields
or
streets,
was
one
of
the
marvels
of
this
war.
A
nation
aroused
and
ready
to
fight
for
its
life
to
the
last
old
man
and
young
boy
yes
women
and
girls
too
was
exemplified
in
that
noble
army
which
for
years
stood
an
even
greater
brunt
of
the
war's
arduosities
than
the
enlisted
fighting
men
themselves.
The
Home
Guard
may
haye
never
actually
fought
but
the
-fact
of
its
existence
and
the
spirit
of
its
being
may
well
go
on
the
record
as
having
been
one
of
the
real
factors
in
winning
the
war.
The
Home
Guards
of
Britain
are
entitled
to
all
honor
and
the
respite
they
now
get
is
richly
due
them.
It
would
be
quite
in
line
with
i
lazi
strategy
to
call
"ouch"
now
i,'to
get
a
breathing
spell
for
the
next
round
say
twenty
years
hence.
If
it
were
not
for
propaganda,
how
much
easier
it
would
be
to
make
up
our
minds.

...
.
.
Possibly
it
may
be
of
interest
and
example
to
us
at
home
to
hear
what
the
boys
who
are
doing
the
fighting
overseas
are
thinking,
about
politics.
At
our
editorial
desk
here,
we
turned
to
"The
Maple
Leaf,"
Canadian
Army
publication
in
Brussels,
and
here
is
an
editorial
we
found
:
"Political
developments
in
Canada
have
been
the
subject
of
discussion
and
speculation
by
Canadians
everywhere
during
recent
weeks.
Although
the
issues
involved
may
be
of
particular
interest
to
the
Canadian
Army,
we
must
not
take
our
eye
off
the
ball.
Our
job
at
present
overseas
is
to
get
on
with
fighting
the
war.
Not
that
Canadian
soldiers
shouldn't
take
an
interest
in
the
affairs
of
their
country.
To
the
contrary.
But
the
fact
remains
that
if
we
are
to
operate
as
an
efficient
fighting
team
there
can
be
no
room
for
political
issues
within
our
ranks.
"There
is
room
here
for
timely
discussion,
but
not
for
political
opinions.
"That
Canadian
soldiers
overseas
think
about
the
affairs
of
their
country
is
only
too
evident
in
letters
received
by
The
Maple
Leaf.
It
is
a
most
healthy
sign
and
The
Maple
Leaf
hopes
this
same
interest
will
continue
when
we
are
back
again
on
civvy
street.
Regardless
of
religious
or
political
beliefs
or
of
province,
Canadian
formations
now
overseas
liavftshoxfn
the
finest
example
of
unity
in
the
history
of
our
country.-
The
purpose
of
their
unity
has
been
to
beat
the
German
.
.
.
Politics
will
have
to
wait."
Post-war
Spending
.
.
.
No
one
really
knows
whether
individuals
and
business
concerns
wil
be
willing
to
spend
their
enormous
purchasing
power
freely
after
the
war.
.It
is
conceived
that
the
swift
drop
in
government
buying
will
leave
people
too
frightened
and
dazed
to
spend
their
money.
But
if
this
happens,
man
will
be
behaving
in
a
new
way.
Never
before
have
millions
of
people
with
a
nuge
.excess
of
liquid
assets
been
unwilling
to
use
their
purchasing
power
freely
to
feed
and
clothe
themselves
arid
to
buy
shelter,
education,
trav1
and
amusement,
provided
goods
could
be
had
at
more
or
less
customary
prices.
