We want a. big national movement from the Motherland to tho Dominions, plotted, planned and perfected hv the Government, with the same scale of vision as shown in the closing years of the war.” declared Mr Briice-Walk-er, Canadian director of migration in Europe, at the Empire Society dinner. “A mighty national movement k wanted. England lias responded with a series of spasmodic eflorts. Empire movement from -Britain should average throe hundred thousand yearly. of which Canada at present could absorb one-third, within a few years. One half of it should he possible within six months to establish enough training camps to produce twenty thousand partiallv trained migrants annually. It would cost a lot ot money hut it would la* returned by relieving conditions in Britain.”
