Sir Wilfrid's manifesto siva as plain as day ',what's the use?" Somehow or 01.1100 11 amnia like the pale echo of the Liberal plat- form of 893 wide!) Sir Wilfrid forgot for fifteen years and remembered too late, Sir Wilfrid's moldiest° shows that his main reliance 18 on the anti-con- sorlption vote,- If returued he 000 - pond the Winger), Service Act and take referendum on couscription, 1 -le makes conscription the issne. Conscription being the issue it may be well to look the thing square in the face, A referenduni would defeat con- scription. It did in Australia where the, population is ninety per cent, British, and it would here where the population le thirty per cent, French and another twenty per cent. foreign. Moreover, the concription returns—only seven per rent of the fit waiting exemp tion—go to show that conscription is inpopular, It is at least 118 unpopular as taxes or grocery bills, both of which would be defeated if Sir Wilfrid took a referendum on them. Sir Wilfrid's calculation is that a re• ferendrim would kill conscription. Neither those about to be .conacriptek or their fathers, mothers, brothers, sis- ters, oonsins would vote -for conscription. The elle hundred and thirty-seven thousand who have been found physi- cally fit but don't want to go, the fifty thousand slackers who haven't reported to the Medical Boards at all,would vote against conscription— 87,000 votes all told. Multiply one hundred and eighty.seven thousaud by three to take in the relatives of the conscripts who might be angr), enough to vote against conscription and you have a grand total of five hundred and sixty thousand against the measure—quite enough, with the other factors, not cou- siderecl here, to give conscription a thorough licking. That is the way Sir Wilfrid figures it out. And 3101 10 defeat consoription would be a dirty trick—a breach of faith with our brave soldiers at the front to whom we 100111(1 be saying "We got you into this hole. Now get yourselves out of Sir Wilfrid says he will suspend the Military Act while he gives voluntary recruiting another chance, This is as much as to say he will do nothing more for the war for the next six months. At least that is what it amountato when he say li he will' take a referendum which is sure to put conscription out of btishiess, Conscription is our only means of raising men and, conscription defeated, only voluntary recruiting is left. The conscription figures show what a Fat ohanee voluntary reorniting would have especially when tried out by 11 Frenoh Canadian premier with a luke- warm Quebec as his chief sopport, If Sir Wilfrid's programme wins out thou our brave boys are stook fast and for keeps in the Flanders mud and they. 0811 (118 there before anything is done to get them out, S'ir Wilfrid may be wrong in his calculatious as to the size of the anti conscription vote. It is possible that many of the conscripts wonld vote for others to be conscripted. It is possible that many fathers and mothers of conscripts would rise aboAe personal feeling and vote for conserip Con as a vital measure of protection for Canada, and the British Empire.11 is possible too that Many of those Rfleeted by oonseription would vote for conscription who would not vote for Sir Wilfrid Lanrier and the Quebec attitude. Sir Wilfrid makes a grave mistake when he reckons that a refer- endum vote on conscription bears any relation to his own chanties of success in a general election. There are two different stories. Union government may reasonably count on the votes of three hundred end fifty thousand soldiers here and &str- atum, also en the votes of five hundred thousand women who are privileged to lend their men folk to the cervico of Xing and country aloe on the votes of staunch patriots and the Dominion over who say that Canada must not put her band to the plough and then turn batik There will be enough votes to win.

It is the only government that can look an empty cupboard in the fnoe and take the pro- per, stern measures to fill it without fear or favor to anybody. Union gov- ernment—if it acts upto its opportunity and I have 110 reason to doubt that it will—must seize every dollar of re- venue for every cent of value there is in it. A partnership—so 1 said—of thrift and fortitede. That is the ouly way we eau meet our troubles. Indeed that is the chief reason why all good patriots should stand behind union government It means courage, straightway of think ing and money saved. And here is the paradox af our national finance for the next ten yeara—if we don't save money we won t have any money to save. Only Union government can do the triok. H. F G. FOOD SAVING Ninety per oant of the food consum- ed in Canada passes through the hands of our women . There is, then a gest responsibility rooting upon them to oonserve„ siipplies needed overseas and to utilize perishable foods, Waste in all Its many forms should be regarded not only as a sin, but as actual disloy- alty in war time. It is important that sufficient and nouri-hing food should be provided, suited to the needs of the different members of the family, Arbitrary rules in this case are of little value but the principle is of gen- eral application, --that the women in the homes can do no more important patriotic service than by guarding against waste. Tho question of sub. stitntion is very largely in their hands. A little saving in every home, when multiplied by all the homes in the Dominion, would mean a very large amount of food products saved for the soldiers, You may feel that you do not need to sign the Food pledge—that you will We all you 0811 11(1100( 11.
