For the present their names and
addresses are being recorded Up to
date. 1900 Canadians have regis
tered for military service. How many
have enlisted directly without con-
sulting Canada House is unknown.
The number of Canadians in Great
Britain is nebulous. During all of
last year 10000 registered with the
commissioner. Several thousand
others neglected to do so, it is be-
lieved. Probably half of the total
were summer visitors.
A constant liaison is maintained
BY the Canadian officials with the
war Office. All names are sent to
the war office as soon as received.
