CANADA'S "CALLING UP" PLANS

Machinery is being set in mo- tion for calling up and sending to military training camps the male youth of Canada. Because of..past' associations the word "conscrip→ tion" is carefully avoided in Canada, but whatever word or phrase devoid of stiga which may be applied to the system, a, pro- clamation of the Governor-in- Council which will appear at any moment in the Canada Gazette will warn single men and widow- ers without children between the ages of 21 and 24, inclusive, to hold themselves in readiness for the call for military training.

to

The next step will be the imme-- diate mailing of registered letters from the registrars, of the 13 ad- ministrative divisions of the coun- try, to about 40,000 men of 21 years of age to present themselves for medical examination doctors in their neighbourhood. About 10,500 medical men, practi- cally the entire medical profession in good standing in the Dominion, have been appointed as examin- National ing physicians under War Services regulations. The ob- ject of the initial call is to get 30,000 for the first classes of in- struction. The recruits will be distributed among the 39 training centres across the country.

As one of its efforts in support of the country's, export drive, "the. Cotton Board has decided to es- tablish in Manchester, a Colour, Style, and Design Centre.

"The importance of colour, des.ku, l style in the main- tenance and extension of the ex-" port trade in United Kingdom cotton goods needs no emphasis,' the Board points out.
