Officers of the Sixth Division of he "Canadian Army, located on the .aepfic Coast, were positive enough at i press conference in their opinion is to whether reinforcements for the Canadian Army overseas should he jbtained by conscription or the volun-ary method. In the very face of instructions from General A. G. L. aughton, the new minister of na-ional defence, to open a recruiting Jrive to obtain volunteers from the Some Defence Army for service overseas, these officers have said that such a campaign would fail. It is something to seriously consider when such experienced officers say that virtually all of the Home Defence men in the Sixth Division, which is largely made up of men called upon under the National Resouiyes Mobilization Act, have received full combat training but express the belief that they will. hot be recruited voluntarily because they are awaiting the government to give the order. 'f hese officers ought to know whereof they speak and, under all the circumstances, it is hard to suppose they are not speaking sincerely. All of which makes us look to Ottawa for further explanation to back up the voluntary method of obtaining overseas reinforcements. Might Be Danger Yet . . . Possibly it would not be wise for us to complacently abandon all our civil protection organization and activity on this coast on no better grounds than that, since nothing has happened here, nothing will. True enough the situation in the western Pacific is vastly improved to what it wagandTojo's fighters t are having plenty trr Keep them busy close to home. -Yetrthere is still the possibility of desperate, suicidal exploits against this.Pacific coast. Even with the war in ;Europe over, there will still be possibilities along those lines as the PAGE TWO The Civic Arena . . . The Civic Labor Federation is to be congratulated on being once again the first to get its candidates in the field for the forthcoming civic election. They have thus indicated a hearty and healthy interest in civic affairs. The energy which the Civic Labor Federation put into the campaign a year ago reaped a harvest of votes for it at the polling. No doubt, there are many people who do not see eye to eye with the Civic Labor Federation and are not sympathetically disposed towards its candidates. However, little .is being heard from the quarter of the Non-Partizan Association as yet. If it really means business it would "be doing well to get organized by naming its candidates and arranging an active campaign in their support. That is the way the Civic Labor Federation wins elections. The Late W. E. Collison . . . The late W. E. Collison, former Anglican missionary and Indian Agent, whose death in Vancouver we regreb-ted to record yesterday, might be truly described as one of the real links with the storied past of this part of the British Columbia coast.

He was able again to serve the native people well in his capacity as Indian Agent.
