Prone what anyone can see at the
inresent or could be seen at anytime
the pasttheee years the people
and newspapers whirl have been
talking union seem to imagine that
taut is all that is necessary. They:
refuse to unite, evert t0 win the
war. If history, which is supposed
to be able to 'judge things with a
nicety of justice, decides that the
Government was "wanting from the
beginning" then it will surely. decide
that the Opposition was '4wanting"
right to the end,
The Manitoba Free Press, one, of
Canada's leading Liberal newspapers,
is under no delusion as to why- we
have not o Union Government and
i s ho enough comet
t 1 vast. 1 h to 01
;boldly and put the blame where it
belongs, In a recent editorial under
the heading "Crocodile Tears" it
says in part :
"Lamentations by public men at
'Ottawa, and by various newspapers,
that one unfortunate result of the
Franchise Bill is to make Union
(Government impossible are, in tate
main, hyliooritical. They proceed
,:'from parties who have been: resort-
ing to every possible expedient to
prevent the coming of a Union• Gov.-
ernment ; and are now delighted be-
yond measure to think that at last
an insuperable bar has been raised, to
the consummation of the project to
'whicif they are so deeply opposed.
That there was neither a
'Union Government nor such an un-
deretandiagis due principally to the
,Liberal leaders who have shown lien
times more ingenuity • in finding ex-
cuses for refusing to help forward
-the tnovement looking towards unity
'than they have displayed in seeking -
,00casion to serve their country.
Theirs is the chief responsibility for
the failure to reach an understand-
ing ; and if, because of their course,
union ultimately fails, the country,
;will demand an accounting at their
bands,"
• The Toronto Daily' Star, which is
usually very loud in its warnings
,against anything like stirring up rac-
'dat or religious strife, 'seems to be
,deliberately trying to arouse a pre-
judice among Roman Catholics by
,hinting that at some future time a
'Governsnent in Canada, not a Liber-
al Government, be it understood,
might take a notion to deprive Rom-
an Catholics of the right' to vote.
Twice during the past eou;ple pf
i— - -tveeks has The Star thrown out this
'hint,
It would really be hard to put into
plain words just where The Star
stands just at present and what it
would. like to see happen. It is
,•, committed to conscription but Sir
Wilfrid Laurier, who is just as much
'committed against it, is still head
of the Liberal party andeven con-
:seription Liberals acclaim him as
their leader. If Sir Wilfrid Laurier
is returned to power at the coming
-election does Tlie Star or anybody
.else imagine that the Military Ser -
,vice Act would be enforced ? The
Star at times is struck with the
Teal that such an emergency might
Ibe brought about and comes oust with
a blunt assertion thtit the bays At
the front must be supported 'mid that
it will deliiport none but conscription
candidates, oto,, but 00 Most oeoa-
sions it is doing its level .bust to de-

Write to London, Canada
The following letter, which ex-
plains itself, has been received fly,
The News,Rocard and may ,be of in-
terest
nterest to many readers ; _
Dear Sir,—I shall be obliged to.you
if you will kindly bring to the at-
tention of your readers the fact that
enquiries concerning members of the
Canadian Expeditionary Force should
not be sent yo England, All avail-
able information is dispatched from
London, England, by cable and mail-
ed to the . Record 011lee, Ottawa.
Consequently, the Record Office, in
most instances is able to impart the
same ,information from two weeks' to
a month earlier than could be done
by the authorities overseas. 'AU en-
quiries, therefore, concerning mem-
bers of tile Canadian Expeditionary
Force should be sent directly to Disc
trice Headquarters and will 'be trans-
mitted to Ottawa immediately for
attention.
Yours truly,
Walter James Brown,
, Lieut. -Colonel
A. A, G., M. D. No. 1
Help the Fighters
to Win
Save Wheat—Great Britain and our
Allies must have 460,000,000 bushels
from Canada and the United States.
Normal consumption must be reduced
by at least 25 percent. to meet war
needs.
Save Beef and Bacon—Normal con-
sumption trust be reduced by at
least 95 percept. to meet, war needs.
The demand for these commodities
is imperative. The men in the tren-
ches will go hungry if you fait them.
Will you let them fight for you and
not fight for them ?
You Can:Use Substitutes—Such as
other meats, fish, eggs, milk, oat-
meal, barley, etc., with' benefit to
health.
You Betray Your Country's Cause
When You Waste Food—Over $50,-
000,000 worth of foodstuffs goes in-
to tate garbage wagons of Canada
every year. Such , waste in wartime
is a ohne. Your Loyalty is meas-
ureable by 'your saving.
Eat Perishable Prodiiots-Preserve,
dry, can and store the garden truck
which has been produced so abun-
dantly this year. By doing so you
prevent waste' and release storable
foods for export. '
Victory is Dependent' Upon the Ex-
tent of Your Food Service.
W. J, Hanna,
Food Controller.
