The
Ottawa
Issue
.
.

The
issue
which
has
resulted
in
the
cabinet
crisis
at
Ottawa
with
the
resignation
of
Col.
J.
L.
Ralston
as
minister
of
national
defence
and
the
appointment
of
General
A.
G.
L.
McNaughton
as
his
successor
is
clear-cut
enough.
Col.
Ralston
favored
the
use
of
Home
Defence
call-up
troops
in
any
theatre
of
war.
Gen.
McNaughton
favors
the
continuation
of
voluntary
overseas"
service.
Prime
Minister
Mackenzie
King
and
the
majority
of
the
cabinet
did
not
agree
with
Col.
Ralston
so
he
resigned
in
support
of
his
convictions.
Quite
possibly
there
may
be
resignations
of
other
ministers
on
the
same
issue.
The
Prime
Minister
rightly
enough
paid
tribute
to
the
integrity
of
the
retiring
minister.
No
one
who
knows
Col.
Ralston
could
question
his
integrity
or
his
strength
of
character.
It
is
to
be
hoped
that
Gen.
McNaughton
will
be
as
worthy
and
capable
a
successor.
His
position
is
not
particularly
to
be
envied
for
there
may
still
be
difficult
times
ahead
before
the
war
is
over.
The
political
situation
at
Ottawa
for
the
time
commands
a
large
measure
of
interest
and
seems
j
fraught
vith
many
possibilities.
There
are
strong',
convictions
on
the
issue
of
unrestricted
military
service
and
quite
possibly
they
may
again
transcend
political
lines
as
was
the
case
back
in
the
latter
days
of
the
First
Great
War.
The
Local
Situation
...
Meanwhile
the
local
political
situation,
with
the
i
certainty
'that
an
election
will
be
held
within
the
space
of
the
next
few
months,
remains
unchanged
with
one
party
going
ahead,
and
effectively
sawing
campaign
wood
while
there
appears
difficulty
in
settling
upon
a
good
man
to
succeed
Olof
Hanson
I
who
still
appears
obdurate
in
his
declining
to
seek
re-election.
,
Mr.
Hanson
has
been
such
a
good-member
forms
that
naturally,there
are
few
who
feeljliat
they
could
effectively
fill
his
shoes.
He
has
been
so
satisfactory
that
many
feel
he
should
reconsider
and
cany
on
the
good
work
for
another
term
of
Parliament
at
least.
No.
doubt
Mr.
Hanson
sons
for
not
wishing.
to
continue
theiarduous.parer
difficult
riding
as
this.
He
has
his
own
business
to
consider
and
probably
there
are
other
considerations
to
justify
his
desire
to
retire
now
after
he
has
served
us
so
long
and
faithfully.
There
are
none
to
deny
that
he
has
already
done
more
than
one
man's
share
in
the
public
service.
In
any
case,
it
appears
to
be
high
time
that
something
was
done
about
the
matter
ofvdecidihg
upon
a
candidate
on
whom
we
can
all
unite
in
enthusiastic
support.
Mr.
Hanson
is
one
such
possible
candidate
but
there
must
also
surely
be
others.
Ottawa's
Financial
Octopus
.
.
.
Shades
of
Duff
Pattullo!
Those
words
of
Premier
John
Hart
at
Penticton,
savoring
of
protest
at
the
Ottawa
financial
bureaucracy
seeking
to
embrace
in
its
tentacles
financial
control
of
all
Canada
including
the
taxation
rights
of
the
provincial
governments,
sound
muchly
like
the
former
premier
and
still
our
member
for
Prince
Rupert
who
these
many
years
has
so
strongly,
championed
the
claims
of
the
provinces
to.
taxation
rights,
going
to
extreme
lengths'
some
times
in
doing
so.
When
the
always
careful
and
usually
conservative
financial
authority,
John
Hart,
comes
out
in
meeting
and
makes
remarks
like
he
did
at
Penticton
we
are
constrained
to
admit
that
there
must
be
something
to
it
after
all.
Harsh
words
those
coming
from
him
about
the
fiscal
octopus
on
the
banks
of
the
Ottawa.
But,
putting
all
levity
aside,
there
were
possibly
some
of
us
who
did
not
realize
it
was
actually
so
grasping
as
we
had
been
led
by
others,
principally
Mr.
Pattullo,
to
believe.
