SECOND DIVISION MEN AND WOMEN. r-IHAMPION considers that what the Kj Right Hon. Mr. Massey stated at Belfast should be carefully considered, as his patriotism hadu't vanished. /"CANADA states her maximum contribu\J turn is fined, and, that her industries and agriculture must bo kept going;, and Champion is of the opinion that the Canadian Ministry is just as patriotic and far-seeing as our own./CHAMPION is strongly opposed to \_; Kaiserism, or one-man uowor, in any sphere; politically, as the rigour of the law is tho height of oppression when interpreted by arrogance. FOR this sane and patriotic advice CUampion solicits uo local or Imperial Vononrs handed out by man, as they are of little value beyond creatine a swelling (vide "London Times"), but only asks you to continue using • • "CHAMPION" MUSCLE RAISER FLOUR and ■ "STANDARD" OATMEAL AND ROLLED OATS, nnckeil to suit the occasion. I ' ~ PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING LETTERS CAREFULLY :- (Ttepriatß from "Auckland Star," June 11 and 13. 1917.) CHAMBER 01 , , COMMERCE ~ 'AND SECOND DIVISION. (To tho Editor.) Sir,—l heartily endorse the sentiments expressed in your sub-leader of the 9th inst. It would bo most unfair and cruel for any employer to plac;\to who he considered was a non-essential, obviously he wouldn't be employed unless he was reouired. 1 am pleased Mr. T. Peacock, a member of the Chamber, stated such a selection would' Rive otieuce. The Appeal Board is the proper one to give these decisions. I think the Chamber panted to elicit what was to be the Domiuion's maximum contribution, 'as no Efficiency Board cotild advise what should bp dona without knowing the maximum. The Hon. Mr. j&laucy, when speaking at a Mayorul banquet at Belfast on November 24, 1916 (vid/e London cables), stated if the DoiMluiou contributed 100,000 men it would be. a fair proportion. Sir James Allen, '] n>. month later, when speaking at Dunedin, j said no Ministerial encouragement had been given •to the 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 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 mon had not yet responded. Canada's contribution, on a. 10 per cent, hasis, would be about 650,000 men. Australia's position is somewhat similar to Canada's. Tho Hon. Mr. Mac Donald, when sneaking at Cbristchurch on tho 21st March, 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 saving: 8000 have sinco enlisted, makinc a total ot 85,739 men. Tho Dominion, on a 10 per cent, basis, requires about 15,000 more, if they can be spared, and this is tho auestion at issue. America, has joined the Allies and promises to raise an army of 625,000 by October. The foreaoing facts rcouiro careful consideration.—l am. etc., June 9. , P. VIRTUE. SECOND DIVISION. (To the Editor.) Sir,—Siuce writing on the . 9th inst. Canada has fixed her maximum contribution at 500,000 men, which was promised durinc 1916. It is apparent only 400,?00 mon have enlisted, as 100,000 are to bo called up by conscription. Assuming that Canada has a population of say 7,000,000 (though some say it is more), her contribution is,a little over 7 per cent. New Zealand's contribution to date is about SJ per cent., with 30,695 more in the singlo class to call up, yet news from Wellington indicates that the second class will be also called up.—l am, etc., June 13, 1917.
