iECOND IIVISION. "EN AND pHAMPION considers that what the Right Hon. Mr Massey stated at Belfast should be carefully considered, as his patriotism hadn't vanished. states her maximum contribution is fixed, an dthat lier industries and agriculture must be kept going, and Champion is of the opinion that the Canadian Ministry is just as patriotic and far seeing as our own. is strongly opposed to Kaiserism, or one-man power, in any -spheiv: nolitically, as the rigour of the law is the height of oppression when interpreted by arrogance. this sane and patriotic advice ■*■ Champion solicits no local or Imperial honours handed out by man, as they are of little value beyond creating a swelling (vide "London Times"), but onlv asks vou to continue using ' "CHAMPION" MUSCLE RAISER FLOUR and "STANDARD" OATMEAL AND ROLLED OATS, packed to suit the oec^-ion. PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING LETTERS CAREFULLY:— (Reprints from "Auckland Star," June 11 and 13, 1917). 'HAMBER OF <OMMERCE SECOND IIVISION. (To the Editor). Sir,—l heartily endorse the sentiments expressed in your sub-leader of the 9th inst. It would be most unfair and cruel for any employer to placate who he considered was a nonessential, obviously he wouldn't be employed unle<y he was required. I am pleased Mr T. Peacock, a member of the Chamber, stated such a selection would give offence. The Appeal Beard is ,the proper one to give these decisions. I think the Chamber wanted to elicit what was to be 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 Mayoral banguot at Belfast on November 24, 1910 (vide London cables), stated if the Dominion contributed 100,000 men it would be a fair proportion. Sir James Allen, a month later, when speaking at Dunedin, said no Ministerial encouragement had been given to the prevalent idea that 100.000 was to lie the Dominion's contribution. Captain Brown, of the Canadian Recruiting Board, when passing through Auckland on his way home (vide "Star," 20th February, 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 n 10 per cent basis, would be alxmt 050,000 men Australia's position is somewhat similar to Canada's. The Hon Mao Donald, when speaking at Christchureh on the 21st March. stated 07.139 bad gone to the front and 10.000, including Maoris were in camp in Now 7oaland, and T think T am safe in saving that 8,000 have since enlisted, making a total of 85,739 men. The Dominion, on a 10 per cent basis, requires about 15,000 more, if they can be spared, and this is the question ,nt issue, America has joined the Alb'os to ra<se an army of 029,000 br October. The foregoing facts require careful consideration.—l am*, etc., June 9. P. VIRTUE. (To the Editor). Sir, —Since writing on the Dtli inst., Canada lias fixed her maximum contribution at 500,000 men, which was promised durirg 1916. It is apparent '•.nlv 400,000 men have enlisted, as 100 000 are to bo called nn by conscription, A Turning that Canada has a population of say 7,000,000 (though some say it is mere), her contribution : s a litt'e over 7 per cent). New Zealand's contribution to date is about H per rent, wi'h 30.095 mere ii; the single class to o:<ll v:}\ yet rows from Wellington indicates that the second c.'ass will be "'so called nn—T rm, etc., June 13. 1917.
