Canadian Government
Sacrificing Lives,
Opposition Charges
~ the Associated Press.

OTTAWA, Dec. 6.-The complex
ity of Canada's conscription dilemma
was emphasized today by charges In
the House Of Commons that Prime
Minister w. L. Mackenzie King was
sacrificing soldiers lives for political
reasons-one of his accusers declar-
ing the new reinforcement policy
does not go far enough, another in
ssiting it goes too far.
In terms so bitter that the Speaker
of the House ordered them ex-
plunged from the record, members OF
extreme opposite viewpoints last
night denounced Mr.. Kings So
called partial conscription plan, un-
der which an initial 5000 men are
to be sent from the drafted home
army to serve in the front lines in
Europe.
Proposing conscription of all of
the $4,000 Home Army troops, DR..
H. A. Bruce, a member of the Off
cial opposition Progressive Conserv-
ative party. declared Mr.. King was
sacrificing "the lives of our Canadian
boys on the battlefields of France
and Italy rather than lose votes in
the province of Quebec
Prime Minister Assailed.
In his address, which Speaker j.
A. Glen termed "a reprehensible
attack" DR.. Bruce said:
Our men at the front are asking
for trained reinforcements. This
Is matter of mems lives. Brave
boys are dying on the Rhine while
this government maneuvers for
votes"
The mention of Quebec was a
reference to the traditional anti
conscriptionist sentiment of this
large French-speaking province,
from which the King government
normally receives a large measure
Of its support.
A second Progressive Conservative,
George Black, said the policy of
the government is costing the lives
of men overseas" and his remarks
were similarly expunged.
Lives Reported Wasted.
Representing the extreme anti
conscriptionists, Armand Choquette,
a Quebec member of the nation
aGstic Bloc Populaire, charged that
the Prime Minister was wasting lives
by giving in to the conscriptionists.
For the first time in my life" Mr..
Choquette said of Mr.. Kings address
to Parliament November 27, Il heard
the head of a Christian and demo-
cratic country admit as his prin-
cipal motive, in order to solve a cab
met crisis and avoid possible defeat
of his administration, that it was
necessary for him to send thousands
of young men to their deaths on the
battlefield"
