Man For Man Are 'Better -s "Let me speak," said the Premier, "of what the record of a year means to us as far as this wards concerned. I do not doubt that we fail to have a just idea of the strength of the two nations arrayed against us. Consider the power that can be wielded by a nation that has for fifty years been subjected to an organization that was built to prepare for this war. It will not do for us to make our men take the place of artillery and machine guns.- They must fight on equal terms. I know that, .man for man, they are the match and perhaps a little more than a match for the men against whom we are sending them. (Cheers). "We have had to pay for our lack of preparation. i am disposed to think this lack of preparation is in- herent to the form of government we love. The only question we have to' consider is -Whether we are giving our. men fair play at the front. "We in Canada, have done our duty fairly well. During my visit abroad I found many more effective ways of co-operating with the British Govern- ment than we had before. Our sol- diers have fought beside the best in France and England, and I want to say there is in both countries a tre- mendous appreciation of what they have done. I have that message for you from His Majesty the King, from the President of France, from General 3offre and Sir John French. • No Time For -Criticism "This is no time for criticism or lamentation over what mistakes may have been made in the past. This is the time for determination to go forward. We shall watch the achieve- ments of our men and the memory of those achievements already per- formed will remain in our hearts al- ways: There is no need we should .raise any monument. In'time to come it may be the.desire •"to raise in the capital of our Dominion a memorial to the men who have made the su- preme sacrifice for Canada anis the Empire and the memory of those who come back.
