Man Passel" Reid Cockfiekt, aluminum pro- rnmental distrf, rector of 'Cock, td., advertising here, Death fol'- n his Montreat A The Parliament of Canada meets on January 21st. The most momentous session in Canadian history begins in a few short days. It is your Parliament. The members are the servants of the people, not of any party. They represent every one in the constituency which elected them. Each one of them needs your help as never before. Assert your democratic right to govern. Tell your member what, you think should be done and do so without delay. There is one issue which overshadows all others. The Prime Minister of Canada has told us what that issue is. These are his own words: "There is only one way to meet total war, and that is by total effort."--"We must maintain the Canadian army at full fighting strength.- The Leader of British, democracy told the people of Canada what total effort means. These were Winston Churchill's words: In this strange, terrible world war there is a place for every one, man and woman, old and young, hale and halt. Service in a thousand forms is open. There is no room for the dilettante, for the weakling, for the shirker or the sluggard. The mine, the factory, the dockyard, the salt sea waves, the fields to till, the home, the hospital, the chair of the scientist, the pulpit of the preacher—from the highest to the humblest, the tasks are all of equal honor. All have their part to play." To fulfil that description of total effort is the first and foremost duty of the Parliament of Canada. The people of . Canada must be told what part they are to play. They cannot,guess. Every man and woman, strong or weak, old or young, must be guided by the Government to the post where they can contribute most to victory. We are conscious of the substantial efforts made throughout the war by the Canadian Government. We are anxious to assist them in making the vital decisions forced upon them by the events of the past few weeks, We do not believe that the people of Canada consider that their Government or its leader are in any way bound by undertakings given before the United States entered the war. This is no time for a referendum. • The responsibility rests squarely on Parliament. The war will not wait. There is only one way to meet total war—by total effort—that is to mobilize, all our manpower and material resources under a plan of universal compulsory selective service. Those who can serve best on the farms must work on the farms. Those who can serve best in the factories must work in the factories. And those best fitted to serve in' the armed forces must be trained, equipped, and available for service in Canada or overseas anywhere at any time. That is the only way that our farms, our factories and our armed forces can wage total war. No half measures are consistent with national honor. If you agree with that opinion then it is your duty to tell your member NOW that you want him to insist upon the ira., mediate adoption of such a plan. Tell him that you want the business of government brought into Parliament where it belongs. Tell him to inform Parliament, and through Parliament the whole of Canada, that the people of his riding advocate and will sup- port any measures, however drastic, which will assure the last ounce of 4ffort of which they are capable. To Canada's Parliament, which meets in a few short days, Mr. Winston Churchill said this: "The enemy'has asked for total war. Let us be sure that he gets it," Tell your member in the short time which still remains that you want to be sure that we do wage total war and that you-- want him to say so in your behalf on the floor of Parliament. , "' • '-lait.U.V.0;.' There is an added reason why you must act immediately if you believe that democracy is government by the people. Last week, President Roosevelt told one hundred and thirty million people of the United States where their armed forces are going to zi,v4 fight in this war. "As our power and resources are fully mobilized, u•s4hall carry the attack against the enemy•—we shall hit him and hit him again, wherever and whenever we can reach him." We are partners with the. United States in this struggle. We signed a pact binding us to a common effort. National honor and the safety of our people demand that every man who wears the uniform of .Canada be ready at Al times to go overseas to hit the enemy wherever and whenever he can be reached. What a shameful travesty of justice it would be if we approved of unity of military command and failed to establish unity ,of sacrifice be- tween nations.''' Canada's honor is at stake. The Committee for Total War urges you to act without delay. Send your member a telegram, a letter or a postcard at once. This is your most important task. Your member represents you no matter what your party may be. He is your voice in Parliament. When you put down this newspaper, act at once. If you agree with the opinion supported by this Committee, say so. i• CO OR TOT L AR 0. R. Alyea, Trenton. Miss Joan Arnold!, Toronto. F, K. Ashbaugh, TIllsonburg. A, Boggs, Concord, Col. E. A.
