He explained that While miniatere of the Governrrent had on previceis occasions thInted at an eerie,' electiore, ouch bints had be n received with cold consideration by.the oareile generally. It was felt among the electorate that during the war, iglitical strife should be eliminated and this is the stand he and his followers had adooted, it was the sincere wish of all the ir,embera on the Liberal side of the. heuee to refrain from( coo ten Ueda questions that the whole energy of the }people ot Canada aright be con.. served in the intereats rot only of the Ea,lre bet of humanity as well.

Ca.naela wee free tet go in. or', free to atay oat. Bat the motherland was engaged in mortal conflict with a na- tion which was-atruggling for uni- versal domination. There was but one thing fir Canada to do, and that was to ,olace her resources of eren and Money at the disposal of the ooemon cau.se. It ,was the common fight of ,all for civilization.
