OTTAWA. Apr ♦—(U.R)-A policy
of not asking too many questions
lias been adopted toward Americans
seeking to enlist the Canadian
forces, official circles admit
Theoretically, no American who
came to Canada after Sept. 1.
1939. may enlist in the Canadian
forces unless he becomes natural-
ized But If be says he ha* re-
sided in Canada before that dale,
little trouble Is taken to check up
on his claim.
In view of this loophole, officials
said there Is the strongest watch
being kept against active recruit-
ing oi Americans In Canada. No
violations have been reported yet.
It is believed, however, that
ninny Americans who were denied
passports in the United States to
enable them to fight abroad are
nbtlnihg them from foreign con-
suls-gencral In Canada. The re-
sponsibility in such cases is held
to be with the foreign country
concerned, not with Canada
Although thousands of Ameri-
cans have enlisted, or tried to en-
list. with 100 In the 1st Division,
thousands more arc participating
in the war effort as civilians. The

Before I began wearing a Hanes Undershirt on
warm days, I used to look like a dishrag by after-
noon. I felt clammy and uncomfortable, too.
Now, a cool Hanes Undershirt takes the wet out
of sweat. Its soft, absorbent knit rests on my chest
as lightly as a breeze but blots up the perspiration.
Evaporation is even and rapid. I feel as cool as a sail
on a boat. And my top-shirt stays a whole lot neater.
Gentlemen, Hanes Shirts are knit to fit snug
across your chest and back with a trim, elastic feather-
touch. And they have plenty of length to tuck down
inside your shorts without creeping up to wad at
your waist. *
For matched comfort, wear them with Hanes
