cleats plans worked out well in ad-
vance and administered by men who
have expert knowledge of labor, in-
dustrial and financial conditions in
all parts of the Dominion.
Among tho most practical plans
suggested is that of malting a careful
reuses of our overseas forces directly
after the war is over to ascertain the
employment requirements for the
nen upon their return to Canada.
Such a census would show how many
were desirous of returning to the
farm or of taking up that class of
work upon their return; it would
show how many carpenters, masons,
+tachinists, etc„ would require em-
ployment and when they would bo
available.
There will be, 1ts a matter of course,
a number of men who will have posi-
tions awaiting then.—others will
have relatives or friends who care for
them until such time as they have
secured employment. Such leen will
not be a charge upon the country and
could be mustered out among the
first, But what of those who have no
relatives to look after thein and wtio
have no resources upon which to rely
during the assimilation period? The
nation must certainly caro for these
men, and their number will be large,
its shown by the enlistment front the
laboring class.
It is ceilmated that it would re-
quire 901) larges transports to bring
bark all of Canada's overseas forces
within three months ❑iter 11(' cle,v1
of the tear. As this number of largo
beats would be impossible 10 socrre,
it is quite evident that we rennet
count upon returning more than u
few thousand cath mouth. The .nus.
tering out of the Union Army con•
sist.ed for the mm•t part in sending
regimental trains bark to the place of
recruiting, a leek reinirhtg only a
few days 111rat Ion. ('aaada can
hardly count anon the return of all
or !Lir men short of a year ur more
;after 1.31e (lose of the war.
I'bn glestion follows, how are the
men to he handled after they return
to Canaela? It would scene to he rte•
sirable that they be Rept in camps or
inure ering-out depots until the pr„prr
authorities are satisfied they cat be
provided with employment, tint,'•
511011 a general :wheelie and with their
cute on this side provided for by pro-
per provincial or sectional depots,
there should be a minimum of 1335•
qtly in getting the men back into
civil life. 1
The proposed plan of awarding a
free homestead to soldiers, regard•
lens of whether they have any agri-
cultural experience, Is fraught with
many dangers, as Canada's exited -
01100 after the South African war d0•
monstrated, Such a plan merely feeds
the govemtuent iand to the heads of
speculators, without fulfilling the
object of caring for the soldier,
Again, most of these returning men
know tittle or nothing about farm-

led will, 1u a large number of eases,
bring a desire for a continuation of
