requiring the
Cormanding. They would be Non-combatants
protection of the fighting force no less than the women and children, and if they took part in any fighting they would be liable to be shot as Ton-combatants. I think that a large number of Britishers in this Colony would take shame to
themselves at finding themselves classed with the women and children in case of fighting. It is well that they should realise this fact. They will neither be accepted as Volunteers nor provided with uniform or rifles. Looking to these facts it is obvious that for purposes of defence the Volunteer Reserve Association is absolutely useless.
They would not be allowed to fight, and the stipulation (Rule 6) that they should be enrolled in case of emergency
was framed on a misconception of the facts ntated by the
high Military Authorities I have cited.
I have recently had a return made of the number of able-bodied men of British race employed by Government and by 51 leading Firme in the dolony, noting
how many were trained and how many untrained. The result
shows that 66.16% of those included in the return are
already trained within the definition given above. This is
a remarkable percentage and shows that the scheme would not involve the t aining of so large a number of untrained mon
as might have been expected. The last Census ** 1906 gare
1,538 male adults between the ages of 25 and 50. The
return I allude to included 798 e.g. more than half. It is probably therefore reasonably to asgume that 68% of those
who would be affected by these propoaels are already
trained.
In a Crown Colony such as this the creation
of a Reserve such as I have described is the utmost that
can be done. It is needless to point out that it has
nothing whatever in common with "Conscrip÷ion" which is
