(To the Editor.) Sir.—l heartily endorse the sentiments expressed in your sub-leader oi : tho 9th inst. It would be most unfair and cruel for any employer to placate who he considered was a non-essential, obviously he wouldn’t bo employed unless he was required. 1 am pleased Mr T. Peacock, a member of tho Chamber, stated such a selection would give oil.;nee. .The Appeal Board is tho proper one to give these decisions. I think the Chamber to elicit what was to he the 'Dominion’s maximum contribution, as no Efficiency Board could advise what should be done without knowing the maximum. The Hon. Mr Massey, when speaking at a Mayor; l .l banquet at Belfast on November 21th. 1916 (vide London cables), stated if the Dominion contributed 100,000 men it would bn a fair proportion. Sir James Allen, a month later, when speaking at Dunedin, said no Ministerial encouragement had been given, to tho prevalent idea that. 100,000 was to be the Dominion’s contribution. Captain Brown, of the Canadian Recruiting Board, when passing through Auckland, on his way homo (vide "Star,” February 30th, 1917), stated that Canada had promised to raise 500,000 men, but so far only 381,000 had enlisted. Subsequent Canadian cables indicated that over 200,000 single men had not yet responded. Canada’s contribution. on a 10 per cent, basis, would bo about 650.000' men. Australia's position is somewhat similar to Canada's. The lion. MacDonald, when speaking at Christchurch on March 21st, stated 67 139 had gone to tho Front and 10.600, including Maoris, were in camp in New Zealand, and-I 'think! I am'safe' in sayinA 8000 have since enlisted, making a total of 85,739 men. 'Tho Dominion, on a 10 per cent, basis, requires about 15,000 mare, if They can be - spared, and this is tho question at issue. . America has joined the Allies and promises to raise an army of 625,000 by October. Tho foregoing facts require careful consideration, "junegth 0 ” P- VIRTUE. SECOND DIVISION. (To tho Editor.) Sir. —Since writing on tho 9th inst. Canada lias fixed her maximum contribution at .500,000 men, which was promised during 1916. It is apparent only 4.00. men have enlisted, as 100,000 are to be called np by conscription. Assnmine that Canada has a population of say 7.000. (though some say it is more), her contribution is a little over 7 per cent. New Zealand’s contribution to date is about Si per cent., with 30,695 more in the single class to call np, yet nows from Wellington indicates that the second class will be also called up.—l al juno°i:!th. uni. ; p.
