This is wily Generai iVIcNauglitori liad to Stay on tlie Job and brealc Ills dates here â-  â-  8300 DRAFT TROOPS WERE AT SEA ON WAY TO FIGHTING FRONTS--Also a full quota of /olunteers. Another 6300 Draftees were in the bush> and they are going to be rounded up and sent overseas. White Mr. Case babbled about General McNaughton drawing red herrings across the trail . . . and roared his desk-thumping chal- lenge to the General to tell the electors "If one so-called Zombie had been sent overseas" ... the General was at work, getting reinforcements overseas. The General could not answer while the reinforcements were on the high seas. He could not risk exposing, the men to enemy torpedoes. So Mr. Case continued to bellow his challenge. Remember, men and women of North Grey- people who make the most noise!" 'It is the ungenerous II AND SPEAKING OF "RED HERRINGS Garfield Case says in hfs advert sement that he is "the one can- didate in this election who insists that your wishes should be car- ried out. This is the only Party (the Pro-Cons.) with a clear and emphatic policy on reinforcements." So says Garfield Case, Jan. 20. And the same Garfield Case told you at Rocklyn, Jan. 16 "I'm itill opposed to conscription as such but am for total moblllza- ti«n of manpower and resources." Men and women of North Grey, do you find this kind of double- talk reassuring â€" when your men overseas want reinforcements? WHERE IS THAT "CLEAR AND EMPHATIC POLICY OF REIN- FORCEMENTS" HE TALKS ABOUT?^ CASE SAYS PLAINLY HE IS OPPOSED TO CONSCRIPTION. THAT MEANS THAT IF CASE HAD THE SAYâ€" THOSE 8,300 DRAFTEES WOULD NOT BE OVERSEAS NOW. Let's Hare a Man of Action â€" Not Words and Wind You want reinforcements, for your men overseas. McNaughton Is getting you reinforcements. This is proven fact â€" not double- talk. You want a man who knows the needs of the Canadian Army â€" not a politician. And you have got both in McNaughton. He built the Army Overseas. His heart and sympathy are with it. Let's not expose our great Canadian Soldier to any more abuse, such as "Opportunist", "Political skullduggery", "most discredited yes-man." Has Mr. Case no sense of decency or shame? Does he think luch mud appeals to loyal men and women of North Grey? Let's vote for our soldier Minister of National Defence on Feb. 5th â€" and strengthen his hand in the House of Commons NOW. ^i^* McNaughton AND SO DO YOUR MEN OVERSEAS VnUlihed by authority of the North Qrey Llberpi "ciaUoD.
