Canada's Four Years W ar
Since 1914, 43,000 Have Yielded up Their
Lives on the Altar of Dernocracy---Vast
Production of Shells, Explosives, Air-
planes, Ships and Food for the Allies.
Ottawa, August 2.— Canada's ach-
ievements in the four years of the war
are briefly reviewed in the following
statement given out by the Director
of Public Information:
Canada entered the war with a re-
gular army of only 3,000 men. At
the beginning of last month she had
sent overseas not less than 390,000
soldiers, and an the same date there
were ' in this country about 60,000
men being trained for service in
France. This makes a total army of
over 450,000. This is much less
than the total enlistments of Cana-
dians in this war, for many of those
who volunteered for service over-
seas were discharged . before leaving
the country, as the stricter medical
examinations weeded then out.
Canadian soldiers , to the number
of 43,000 have given their lives to
the cause, Of these, 27,040 have
been killed in action; 9,-
280 have died of wounds; 2,257
have died of disease; 5,342 are pre-
sumed to be dead,
fh
antes of 113,007 sniffers
have appeared in the casualty lists
as wounded or sick. Between 30,000
and 40,000 of these have returned, to
duty; about 50,000 have been sent
bark to Canada as unfit for further
service; 2,224 Canadians are stili in
Germany or neutral military prirsons,
and 384 are set down as missing.
TEN THOUSAND DISTINCTIONS.
The bravery and devotion of:
Canadian soldiers and nursing sis-
ters have not been without recogni-
tion. Some 10,000 of these have re-
ceived distinctions ,of, ;one kind or
another. Following is a list of honors
which have been won in the field by
members of the Canadian Expedition-
ary Force.
Victoria Cross, 30; Distinguished
Service Order, 432; Bar .. to ,Dittl-
gutshed'Service • Order, 18; Military
Cross, 1,467; Bar to Military Cross,
61; Distinguished 'Conduct Medial,
939; Military Medal, 6,549; first
bar to Military Medal, 227; second
bar to Military Medal, 6; Meritorious
Service Medal, 118; mentioned in des-
patches, 2,573; Royal Red Cross 130.
OUTPUT OF MUNITIONS,
In supplying munitions to Great
Britain and the allies, Canada has
become one of the world's great ar-
senals, Before the war few of us
knew what a shrapnel shell looked
like 1t is a remarkable fact that
in the caes of sharpnel for the 18
pounder gun, no less than - 55 per
cent of the output for the British
army for the last six months of
1917 carte from Canada, Most of
these were complete rounds of am-
munition, which went,. . direct to
France. Of the otehr shells our mun-
ition factories contributed( the follow-
ing proportion of the total required for
the British forces during this period:
Forty-two per. cent of the total of
4-5 inch shell's: e7 per cent of the
total. of 6 -inch shell: 20 per cent,of
the 'fetal of 60 -pound high explosive
shell: -15 per cent of the total -of 8 -inch
shell; 16 per eent of tine total of 9.2 -
inch shell.
The extent to which Canada has
produced munitions of ,wat; ,can be
shown' by the following fsgwres:..
Total productioi of shells up • to
recent' date, 50,000,000 poundal id,
tit - production of rexplOsiVes and pro-
pellants for cartridges" - and shells
100000;000 poilnds: total production
of aeroplanes, 2,100; total value of or-
ders ,placed In Canada by the British
Government, $1,200,000,000, Of this
amonn,t, $600,000,000 his been loaned
to th'e British Government for this
purpose by the Dominion of Canada.
There 'been 'been at. one time en-
ployed in this work 350,000"•tnen and

as manufactured munitions, clothing,
textiles, leather, vehicles and other
commodities having a direct bearing on.
the war, are being exported in growing
quantities. The statistics for the fiscal
year 1917-18 show that our exports in
'thee important articles. have increased
!over the average of three years before
tine war by more than four hundred
per cent,
SHIPBUILDING
Canada is doing 'her share int
shipbuilding, Contracts have been
placed in the Dominion for 112 ves-
sels with a total' tonnage of about
450,000. Most of these will be
ilaunched during 1918.
FOOD EXPORT
In the supply of food to the Allies
Canada has . made an impressive
showing. Her annual net export of
wheat and' flosir for the supply of
Great Britain and the Allies in Eu-
rope has increased over, the average
annual export before the war by
about .50,000,000 bushels, Net ex-
ports in beef have iniceased by near-
ly 7,5,000,000 pounds per annus,
and net exports in pork and pork
products have incereased by 125,000
000 pounds per annuih,
LOANS FOR WAR OUTLAY
Its the financial effort necessitated
by the requirements of war, the
country has risetl splendidly to the
occasion. By March 31 of this year
Canada's total outlay for war pur-
poses was about $875,000,000 ,The
national debt before the war stood
at $336,000,000. When the accounts 1
for this fiscal year are closed ft will
reach about $1,200,000,000. The in-
crease is almost entirely due to the
• war. ' it has 'bee's ` necessary for the 1
government to borrow from the peo-
ple of Canada to an extent which,
four years ago, would have "'been
thought imposible. At present the
suns which Canadians have loaned
to the government, or in other
words, our domestic loans up to date,
for war purpose's, cone to 5756,-
000,000 or $900 pen: head of the en-'
tire population. Inthe great Vic-
tory Loan campaign of last year `t
$398,000,000 was loaned to the gov-
ernment by 820,000 subscribers,,
which means that one in every nine
of'
the pOpulation.of the country sub -
embed to that loan.

ment 'of

for the care of theirdependents • at
