It is 'a selective process--- it reverses what took : place . during the period of deep depression Which followed the boom' et 1928=29. It was by this means, during the last war, that we more than doubled 'our in- dustrial, production while we , had nearly 600,000 men under arms. The increase during the present war will be vastly. greater. We start frem a higher level. • Industry is more efficient.

Alice, Iiisited the big training ,centre. It Was his :.Excellency's first inspec,- tion of a. Canadian. military, camp and the series of special displays arrang- ed for Iris benefit, testified .to the vast strides, made by the Dominion's fight ins forces since the outbreak of war eleven months ago.: Bronzed fighting men, trim in .their summer &liforms and spn. helmets. Staged. realistic mock' battles for the Vice -Regal party. At other' points, a, 'long the i'oate taken by their Ex- cellencies displays demonstrating practically• every activity 'of an arm- ed force, from ',bridge building to bay- onet charges; were given. The' niogt, spectacular exhibition was a .sham battle in one of Petaw- awa's wide valleys. The Vice -Regal party, together with high military officers, watched the show from a special stand constructed ob.the side of a hill. More than a mile from the obser- vation stand was a dummy village' with the flag of'the "enemy” flapping from a steeple.. When the "attack' 'began, field guns opened fii-e at the -Base of the hil.l•.and the air was filled - by, the shriek of shells as they -sped toward their targets. ' . ,His Excellency, an old 'soldier him :self;, wntrhe-d intensely through gel.. glasses as . the • heavy 'shells smacked the earth near. the steeple. When they finally. scored direct hits and the' '- -village" .had been reduced to a Elam--". ing ',shambles, His Excellency applau- dell enthusiastically., So accurate wax, the firing that shells were hammer- ing into the centre of the target after the third round had been fired. Meanwhile, as field guns bombard- ed the 'village",• anti-aircraft mach- ine guns peppered floating balloons, with tracer bullets. It was explained• to • His Excellency. that the anti -air-' craft unit was warding off ari "enemy, air attack" directed at the batteries concealed in the 'foliage at the base of the hill,; ' Dummy ' tanks were towed across the fields and became: thel targets fin• IR -pounder guns, fined 'with opeti• sights.
