PLAN
 FOR RELEASING
 MEN PREPARED

LONDON-Married men and those who have seen long service in the British armies will receive first con sideration in the demobilization of British fighting forces. says Dr. Christopher Addison, minister of re- construction. "Pivotal' men, he said. would come back early. The demobilization, said the min ister, should be so conducted that millions of men in the navy and army would have an early oppor- tunity of employment Accordingly la plan arranged on industrial re- quirements had been prepared.
 As men are demoblized they will be reemployed in the various in dustries from which they were with drawn to enter the army. There will be special facilities giving ac- cess to the land, said Dr. Allison. Gardens or larger plots will be pro- vided.
 Councils composed of employers and working men have been organ ized in forty or fifty different trades. Already these bodies are removing sources of irritation and bringing a spirit of solidarity, better spirit than prevailed under former agreements, said the minister.
 In as much as the necessity for producing as much food as possible will not end with the war, Dr. Addi- son said he believed some control over the use of the land would con tinue to be exercised by the govern ment. Great Britain should manu- facture nitrates for manures on g. large scale.
 The minister declared that unless care was exercised there would be a great deal of speculation while the demobilization of the army was in progress; and prices might advance to the great detriment of industry.

our organization is improved.
Again. we have raised different

produced in the history of mankind
an army of which we shall be increas.
ingly proud as the months go on and
from the training of which our coun.
try will derive an advantage long
after the war is over.
We have begun to build and launch
ships and from all present indications
we shall soon be turning out an in.

time to train men and get material
We are manufacturing munitions and
guns faster than we can get them to
the front, and there is no reason to
suppose that we shall break down at
any time in this work.
Our aircraft program has from va.
rious causes failed to meet our rea-
sonable expectations. The full causes
have not yet been made public, but it
looks now as If the whole movement
were going into a new era and we
shall speed up in this department
also.
We have been successful in our
war finance. All our enterprises
have turned out well. Our taxes
have yielded all that was expected
of them. Our loans have been over

We have been able to meet all oul

send troops to the firing line.
The stars in their courses are
fighting for us and our cause, and
II only we are true to the high ideals
we have adopted and show ourselves
worthy of our ancestry-in energy

victory will be ours.
A victory for us means victory for
the forces OF righteousness and of
