DETAIL COMPLETE MOBILIZATION: Bill 43, which will rank with the most important measures in Canada’s his- tory“ empowers the Government to mobilize “All the effective resources of the nation, both human and] maâ€" terial, for the defence and security of Canada". A short Act of but six clauses and a preamble, it was pass- ed by both Houses of Parliament on June 20th. Entitled “The National Resources Mobilization Act, 1940”, its main provision is to enable the Government to “Do and‘ authorize such acts and things, and make from time to time such orders and reguâ€" lations, requiring persons to place themselves, their services and their property at the disposal” of Canada. Clause three of the Act contains Clause three of the Act contains a limitation of conscription for ser- vice in the active forces to Canada only and the territorial waters thereof, while the time limit of oper- ation is definitely set as “The con- tinuation of the state of war now existing“. The Prime Minister, in presenting the Bill, explained that these additional powers were necess- ary both for the purpose of assist- ance to Britain and for the defence of Canada. The bill is intended “To remove any doubt as to the power of the Government, and! the will of Parliament that the whole material resources of the country shall be available whenever they are required to meet the needs of the war.” Ser- vice in the \overseas forces, the Prime Minister declared, would‘ re- main on the present voluntary basis of recruitment. NEW DEPARTMENT: Depart-l merit of National War Services is a new branch of the Government to be set up at once, the Prime Min- ister has announced. A Minister will be placed in charge. The pur- pose of the new department is not‘ merely to coordinate the activities of existing voluntary war services. It will be entrusted with the duty of directing and mobilizing the ac-‘ tivities of thousands of citizens who are seeking practical and useful out- lets for; their enthusiasm and patri- otism. Women's organizations, paâ€"i triotic onganizations, commercial or-' garnizations, and many other groups of men and women banded together in the national interest are consid- ered a vast field of activity for spon- ‘ taneous service. The object of the new department is to help Canad- ians to help Canada by their free- will offerings generously made and generously continued. The Minister charged with the duties of this de- partment will be expected immedi- ately to establish a dominion-wide organization of voluntary service, which will be assisted by branch committees im all parts of the coun- try. LABOUR: By Order in\ Council, a set of ten principles has been out- lined to avert labour troubles during the period of the war. These demand fair and reasonable standards of wages with bonuses Where they should apply. Other points are:‘ safeguards for protection of health and safety of the workers; no strikes or lockouts, but the settle- ments of differences by reference to the Government conciliatibn services or the Industrial Disputes Investigaâ€" tion Act; freedom of union organisa- tion; freedom of negotiation with employers by representatives of such unions; scrupulous observance of all! agreements; no coercion or intimi- dation by workers to induce others to join unions; suspension of exist- ing agreements necessitated by war demands, to be made only by agree- ment between the parties concerned. The Order also suggests that where hours of work must be extend-ed, additional shifts be established rath- er than the employment of workers for long hours of overtime.
