§ 107. Mr. P. A. HARRISasked, seeing that it is important that Volunteers in Sections A and B should be granted facilities by their employers to attend the summer camps now being organised for the training of the Volunteer Force, whether, in the interests of Home defence, he will consider the advisability of taking steps to encourage such volunteers to attend such camps?
§ Mr. MACPHERSONArrangements have been made for the attendance of men belonging to Sections A, B, and C of the Volunteer Force at summer camps. Free rations and free railway travelling will be allowed. I should like to take this opportunity of appealing for the co-operation of employers in giving their men who are in Sections A, B, and C of the volunteers facilities to attend camps. Otherwise I am afraid that the arrangements will be rendered nugatory and that training for the defence of the country will suffer accordingly.
