Enlistment for Second Canadian Contingent Begins Soon
Enlistment for the second Canadian expeditionary force is expected to start by week’s end though no official detail exists yet. Over 150 men have signed to join, with discussion planned between Colonel Hughes and Lord Kitchener. Nearby, unrest grows in Asiatic Turkey as Alexandretta’s governor threatens to burn the city if warships arrive. Smyrna also reports tension. The Brindilla, now flying the American flag, has been taken at Halifax as a prize of war. Churchill says the Antwerp naval brigade deployment was strategic, not a reaction to German pressure.
