The BRITISH CRISIS.
W.-The Army and the
Labor Party.
By Frederic J. Haskin.

LONDON. May S-The labor party as
an Independent political entity might not
hope to exercise any powerful influence
on the affairs of British government. But
as a powerful faction necessary to the
continued existence of the present lib
eral government and as representing a
voting power without which no cabinet
can stand under present circumstances,
it has that most tremendous influence
that goes with the balance of power"
In the last few weeks not only Mr.
Asquith's government. but the conserva-
tive opposition. and even King George
V have had taste of that power.
1t is impossible to understand the
seriousness of the situation developed by
the home rule bill without going into this
phase of the matter
The labor party has forty men in the
present house of commons. They have
been voting with the liberals and by their
votes have made the continued life of the
ASqufth cabinet possible. 1t is an open
secret that this coalition has necessitate
mutual concessions and forbearances that
have been anything but pleasing either
to liberals or laborites. The liberals un-
have advanced some meas
ures to degree of radicalism that they

vital necessity of keeping the labor vote
On the other hand. the labor members
have supported. or have RETAINED from

trative deeds of the government that in
other circumstances they would have de-
nounced with wrathful fury. The labor
members have justified their adherence on
the ground that the house of lords must
be abolished before they can hope for
their own theories of government to have
a chance. and that to do this the liberal
party is the only available instrument.
This has been the situation for the last
four Years. 1t was the situation a few

Just what did occur in that crisis will
be carefully stated in a future article.
For the purpose of this letter it is enough
to say that for one reason or another
army officers on duty in Ireland were
given an option to serve in Ulster to pro-
tect army stores. if need be, even against
Sir Edward Carson's anti-home-rule vol
unteers, or else to be dismissed from the
army. An overwhelming majority of
them chose dismissal The government,
thoroughly alarmed and not quite sure of
the ground under its feet, thereupon ex-
planned that the matter was a misunder-
standing. The army officers demanded
a guarantee that they would not be re-
quired to take the initiative in Ulster.
Some paragraphs were added to this
net after an audience with King George.
