GLOBE APPROVES OF CONSCRIPTION
HIGH PRIEST OF LIBERALISM ENDORSES ATTITUDE OF PREMIER
BORDEN.
Toronto, May 18.—Commenting on Sir Robert Borden’s announcement
of conscription the Globe tomorrow will say:
“The big problem before Canada today is the problem of war. The first step necessary to insure the active co-operation of the Dominion in the final phases of the campaign is the compulsory organization of all the military resources of the country. Canadians are no longer satisfied to fight the battle of human freedom by proxy. Voluntary recruiting in Canada is as dead as Julius Caesar. It is too late to amend the past.

The ravages of war have rendered obsolete principles of national
service that passed muster a year ago. There is but one course now topursue if the honor of Canada is to be preserved. Until the war is ended Canada must be a nation in arms. Those who will not volunteer must be made to serve. The fighting divisions of Canada must be reinforced by Canadians.”
