roNpox, Jan 20.-The latest reports
aeon to indicate that the Cabinet IL likely
"a be split into factions over the forth
con,,ng naval estimates. with Winston
Churchill. the First Lord Of tho Admiralty,
leading the fight for a big programme,
and Chancellor Of the Exchequer Lloyd
George opposing 1t.
1t was said by the Morning Post yester-
day that not only was there disagreement
IN the Cabinet OH the subject. but that the
Admiralty Board would resign In a body
unless Mr.. Churchilrs programme for the
construction Of four battleships was car
-ied out. The board regarded this as the
irreducibe minimum of safety.
Tho Daily Telegraph to-day says the
divergence Of opinion about the naval ex-
,erdi,ure has produced grave Cabine.
,-.ss The majority OF the Ministers sup
port Mr.. Lloyd George In opposing Mr..
CAurchlirs estimates. According to the
paper the personal relations between Mr..
Lloyd George and Mr.. Churchill are ex-
tremely strained and the resignation OF
ole Of them Is possible within the next few
aays. The Cabinet will meet on Thursday
~ discuss the subject.
The attack on Mr.. Churchill by the add
vanced Radical wing OF tho Liberal party.
led by Mr.. Lloyd George. has been going
OF for some time. Mr.. Churchill In a
speech some time ago declared that the
new naval estimates must be substan-
tally larger than the last ones. Right OF,
tor OF this Chancellor Of the ExcheQuer
Lloyd George gave out an interview In
which he said that the present was the
psychological moment for Great Britain
20 reduce her naval expenditure. The
followers of the Government ut once d.
vded into factions on the subject and the
newspapers have been filled with gossip
about the relations between the two
dominant characters In the Cabinet.
Mr.. Churchill and Mr.. Lloyd George are
known to be candidates for the Premier
ship when Mr.. Asquith resigns. which he
Is expected to do in a short time. There
are also strong hints that in case Mr.
Churchill is defeated In the Cabinet he will
organize a new independent party which
will draw together the most valuable
clements of the Liberal and Conservative
parties. One paper declared that the hour
had come for such a new grouping o,
forces and that Mr.. Churchill was the
man Of the hour.
