Over One Hundred Thousand

A despatch from Ottawa says: Over.
150,000 inembers of the Canadian ex-
peditionary force have expressed the,
definite wish to take up farming in
Canada after the war. This figure
was obtained by interviewing'230,000
members of the forces overseas, and
indicates Oat 43 per- cent. of those
,men -wish to go on the land. - The ac-
tual number of men returning after
the war will be much greater. If it
should be for example 345,000, on the
assumption that the same proportion
holds true, the number of men desir-
ing to go on the land Will be 157,500.
These. facts and a great many de-
-tails bearing on them have been com-
piled by the statistical division of the
Department .of Soldiers' Civil Re-
establiShment from the` cards issued
•
;by the National Service' Council to
members of the Canadian forces over-;
seas and signed by them. The facts
given represent the men's own state-
ments of their intentions, and in most,
CaSes'there-can be no -double of their
sincerity, ae'perusal will show.
SLAVERY OF WORST TYPE
PRACTISED IN BULGARIA
A despatch from London says: The
Times' correspondent in Sofia says
that there is no shadow of a doubt
that slavery of the worst type known
in history, 'ancient or moderneehas
been practised on a large ,scale. in
Bulgaria during the war. The whip
was freely applied to stimulate the
flagging strength of. prisoners, and
when any sickened there was no med-
ical aid to restore them-. A thousand
thus perished miserably. Out of
