"I have had to take these matters
into consideration and 1 have given
them my. consideration. 1 realize that
the responsibility is a serious one, but a
do not shrink from it. Therefore it is �
nay duty' to announce to the House that '
early proposals will be made on the
part of the Government to provide, by
compulsory military enlistment of a se-
lective basis, such reinforcements as
nsay be aecessary to 1115111 the Canadian
army today in the field as One of the
finest lighting units of the empire. The
number of men required will not be less
than 50,000, and will pe probably 100,-
000.
These proposals have been formu-
lated in part and will be presented to
the House with the greatest expedition
that circumstances will permit. I Isope
that when they are submitted all the
members of the House will receive then
with a full sense of the greatness of
tlse issue involved in this war, with a
deep realization of tlse sacrifice we have
already made, of tlse purpose for whicis
it has been made and with a firm de-
termination on our part that we will do
our duty in this great struggle to the
very end, whatever it may be."

Artifici l C.ioring of Sugar
Prohibited by the Government
1-17,1;1jOR many years the Canadian Public has been eating
Artificially Colored Sugars. Government reports
show that some refineries have used Ultramarine Blue
to make their granulated sugar look • better than it
actually is. Others Made use of Aniline and Vegetable Dyes to,
give a brilliant appearance to their soft or yellow sugars.
The use of dyes or coloring matter
of any kind is unnecessary in refining
Cane Sugar. This is emphasized in
a notification sent to all refiners by
the Dominion Government prohibit-
ing the coloring of sugar, and in cased
where it is found, prosecution proal

Lantic Pure Cane Sugar was first put on
the market about two years ago. Since
that time over 200,000,000 lbs. have been
consumed by the Canadian Public,
and we are now turning out 750,000 lbs.
of Pure Cane Sugar each day.
The reason for this enormous busi-
ness is not hard to explain. It means
lthatthe discriminating consumer has
. !learned by setual use that Lantic
Pure Cane Sugar is superior to all
others.

that we could increase our business in cer-

Torontis, May 111—New enrollment
for all Canada will probably be the
first step by the Dominion Geeern-
meut in carrying out the couscripttion
proposals, according to.Colonel C. H.
Williams, chief recruiting officer for
Canada, who is here today,
Col. Williams held that the nat-
ional registration lists would not do.
The Dominion Government would prob-
ably ask the municipalities to make
an entirely new enrollment of man-
hood for selective draft purposes. Af-
ter the enrollment was made, Colonel
Williams said the selection should, be
made entirely on industrial and social
value, and not on material basis.
"It cannot be worked out equitable
on single man basis," said Williams,
"because the age of which melt mar-
ry in one province is different mater-
ially front Others"'
CREDIT GIVEN FOR THOSE SENT,
Col, Williams said credit would be
given various localities for men already
sent•.
According to this arrangeulent quotas
