Ir s; Most Mecna.niged Army
The. Capadian' Corps has a euffici-
ent atipply of mechanical trenfehrt,
and has two R.C.A.F...faceuedrens). ine
•tached to it, which is more tha.n the
average. There are twice as many
nngineens as in the last war. There
are five reaiments.„ of long range
guns, 'an armored division, survey
and meteorological 'irectiensand a
thoroughly balanced forcer. The Can-
adians have far more mechanization
than the British and Engineers to
keep the roads 'open.
We ere new on, Interior limes with
a -water barrier and can take the of-
fensive in any direction. An Inva-
sion of the Continenthia easier than
an inea;sion of England. The Ger-
mans may yeteettempt an invasion
of England and it may be that the
best -time to strike back'will be after
than—lint _apt necessarily.
The Germans have '25, times as
much coastline to guard as we have,
which 'gives them an impossible task.
The • Riussian. !campaign has been
as gold, frantkineetse and myrrh for
, There is no need for Canadians
to tell Americans what to do: they
know their .own show and ,we need
not tell them.
At that time, the Russian armies
were still in retreat, Petrograd was
surrounded and Moscow w.as threat-
ened. But e'en at that, the General
did nee believe that Russia was going
to be knocked' out of the war. , He
was so bealteneclaby their perform -
aa, levee in these days, that he was
willing to base plans for the future
on the fact :that they would continue
to fight: We can give them mechani-
cal assistance to add to what they
:ire producing in the Urals. Official
reports from Russia were meagre but
the -Russians must have been pre.
pared with enormous mechanization
and there was no need to be greatly
surprised at their stand. They are
careful' not to let even their. allies
know any more than possible. ,
Shipping Conditions Improve
It is a scarcity of shipping al9ne
Which has held back Canada's Army
overseas. Every possible ship has
'been used. Ships are now getting
across the Atlantic much more quick-
ly. The change is amazing. Thp
North Atlantic is rapidlybeconiing a
corridor for the safe transit of troops
and supplies.
The General felt no anxiety about
the morale of the Canadian troops
during the coming winter. They had

mach more interesting training •ahead
of them. The mere have an extroord-
inarily high standard of intelligence
and crime is far less than .in the last
War, only ,a small fraction. He: was
not anxious about the troops, this
winter. The Scheme of education
helps to put in their spare time and
proves beneficial as well.
Not long before that, there had
been an expedition --to apitzbergen
Island in the Arctic. The inhabitants
had been .taken off and the coal mines
destroyed so that the enemy could
not use them. The Canadians ran
that expedition. It was useful in
many ways. Britain, Norway and
Russia all asked for it.
A Dagger At the Heart of Berlin
• •
In the end, the Canadian Corps 'a
a dagger pointed at the heart of Ber-
lin. In fighting value and range of
action, we have an edge on the Ger-
man panzer divisions. ; The Fifth
Canadian Armored Division is stron-
ger than any the Germans.have. The
first Canadian Peakswere then being
received. They would be severely
tested before going into action. There
was no need to doubt their quality,
nor the quality of any other Cana-
dian -made equipalent. Bren guns
from Canada are as nearly perfect
.as' any gun ever turned out and they
came through their trials with flying
colors.
Summing up, the General said that
Canada's great problem was the de-
velopment of its manpower to the
best advantage. It might be that the
recent census -would help. There is •a
Clear Telephone Lines for
•
AllffmOut Pr duction
This Canadian -worker and thousands like him are turn-
ing out_tanks at a rate which early,,this • year will reach
200 a month, according to official estimates. Many
Canadian tanks have already seen action in Russia.'
Yet it was only last May that the first Canatiian:
built tank rumbled' off the line.
No wonder telephone lines are loaded with calls
to suppliers of raw materials and essential parts;
to Goverrunent and army officials; between plant
.departments ; between continents.
You can help clear the telephone system for
urgent war business by adopting "Wartime Tele-
phone Tactics" . . and by "rationing" the time
you spend in neighbourly but unessential tele-
phone talks with, friends. Remember—your
telephone is part of an interlocking system;
needless delays on your fine may hold up
messages on which urgent wartime business
depends. 1
