gVARNING TO MR. B4LFOUR
Unionists Becoming RestiUe Because
of Fiscal PoLicu.

London. March 30.-With few exceptions the
iTnionist press hitherto has supported Mr.. Bal
-four in the policy which led TO the recent one
sided scenes and votes in the House of Com
mons. Now. however. the party is beginning to
SHOW signs OF restivenesE.
When Mr.. BalfoUr was questioned in the
House Of Commons by Winston Churchill yes
Sterday he confessed complete ignorance OF what
had occurred In the House the previous evening
and was obliged 10 read the minutes to learn
the result OF Mr.. Waltons motion of want of
confidence This idea of leadership Of Parlia-
lsnent does not meet with the approval of all
Unionists. and last night IN the Hobbies it was
proposed to send a round robin appealing to Mr..
Ialfour TO return TO the traditional method Of
meeting opposition attacks, on the ground that
constant evasion Is tending to bring the govern
i1nent into ridicule.
THE Daily Mali editorially this morning
warns Mr.. Balfour that he is wrecking the party
nc save the Cabinet, and declares that Parlia-
mentary proceedings have been reduced to a
level which is dangerously near farcical. 1t
would be much better. THE Daily Mail" says,

3nent.
