July 13, 1917 (12th Parliament, 7th Session)

Mr. OLIVER:

I do not know anything
at all about what was done in .munition plants. I have been alluding to the passage between the Prime Minister (Sir Robert Borden) and the ex-Miinister (of Militia (Sir Sam Hughes). The latter has made certain definite statements which have been contradicted by the Prime Minister. But, the drop in recruiting synchronized-to us; the expression of the Minister of Finance -with the dates given by the ex-Minister of Militia as to the official stoppage of recruiting.
