Drew had been "putting up a straw man and trying bo knock it down," and he accused the party leader of misrepresenting the Social Credit non-confidence motion. He said the Social Credit party motion did not sav how comoul-sory service should be put into effect. That was the responsibility of the government. G. S.

We have not the training No other country with a similar dual type of force has yet adopted, and I believe fo-good reasons, a form of compulsory service in the secondary force." Mr. Drew said there was no inconsistency in his party opposing the compulsory training motion while sponsoring one criticizing the government for not having provided the troops needed for home defence and to carry out international obligations.

His party still stood by its criticism of the way the government had handled defence matters.

Everett Fraser, a Prince Edward Islander, graduated at Dalhousie to proceed to Harvard Law School, about the same time Opposition Leader Seorge Drew made it clear that his party did not propose to give the government any "blank cheque." His amendment, as he insisted, called the government to account for its failure to bring sufficient defence forces into being. The vote on the Social Credit amendment for compulsory service in the reserve forces had nothing to do with the principle of selective service for the active army, he said. Mr. Drew was willing to stand on Prime Minister St.

Laurent's own statement that he will introduce selective service when the evidence supports the course. And he added "to the extent that those words of the Prime Minister indicate that this subject is no longer to be made a political football in Canada, I am confident that the people of Canada will strongly approve."
