" ‘We are confronted with very grave international prob- lems which at any moment may explode against the order- ed rogress of our national life in ghe Dominion of Canada.’ "Those are pregnant words.

Where does the Minister of Na- tional Defence look for the strong arm which we may call to our ai . the nation with whose hand we may join our own to provide for our common defence? Now note these words:

" ‘In regard to the exact pos- ition of Canada. it is only fair to say that today the main de- terrent against a major attack upon this country by a Europ- ean power is the existence of the British fleet in the North Atlantic.’

“I ask you to contemplate: Is, the problem of defence now in ss- sociation with that Empire while she still is strong; is the problem of defence for us Canadians in this Dominion. the problem of de- fenw of our country. not on easier

robiem, not a problem more clear-

y within the compass of our pow- er. not a problem which concerns all ci our internal security I‘ would be. if that Empire falls._the problem of defence in association with the United States of Am- erlca?

“Those who can contemplate such an association. as I cannot, may be able to imagine what defence would mean to us if we deflehded upon that asscxiation after the Empire of Britain falls. This Do- minion, as does civilization, de- pends upon the maintenance of the power which has centred in that great Empire, the shields of the world today.

“A Naked Negative"

The exact nature of that ap- proach he has not the candour to disclose. But he goes on in his ad- dress of Friday last to say that if s formal request is made to this Do. minion that the British Govern- ment be permitted to establish in Canada. at the expense of the Bri- tish taxpayer and for the training of the citizens of Britain, a flying school and flying faciliges. that re- quest will be met by the Govern- ment of Canada with a naked negative in the interest of Cana- dian autonomy.

"I yield to none in maintaining the principle of the control of Canada over the forces of Canada, civil or military over Canadians wherever they may be. the trustee- ship of Canadian government for Canada and the arms of Canada, and that control be exercised even in time of war though it might be under a form of unified control.

“But I want to know when the principle ever developed in this Dominion that if Britain wants to train not our men. but her own, with only such of ours as choose to join and by consent of the gov- ernment may. to train her own men for her defence. the defence of her liberty in which comes our defence. for the defence of her shores, she cannot control the training of these men on the soil of Canada: that she cannot her- self conduct that training as she alone knows how to conduct it; that those who are to use the men after they are trained are not the best men to do the training them- selves.

“These are to be the people of Britain unless. as now, Canadians wish to join with government ap- proval for only in that way can they loin the Royal ini- Force st this hour. These are to be her own people for her purposes and ours. in order that they may develop that training. modified may be from month to month as necessitated by the ever growing scientific devel- opments of the time, modified from month tn month and as disclosed to be euential for the proper co- ordination of air defence with nav-
