PREMIER TAKES
OVER BRITISH
WAR OFFICE
Col. SeeIy Presses Resignation,
and Asquith Assumes Duties
in Cabinet Crisis.
BY HERBERT TEMPLE.
Special Gable to The Atlanta Georgia

Special Gable to The Atlanta Georgian
LONDON, March 30.-Premier AS
auth to-day took over the duties Of
Minister for War in his Cabinet, in
addition to those of the head of the
Ministry, and resigned from Parlia-
ment to stand for reelection. Thls
Is in accordance with the law that
requires member of Parliament as
sumng a new Office to go before his
constituents for approval.
This drastic elimination OF the
army and navy crisis was announced
by the Premier in the House Of Com
mons to-day after he had stated that
his effotts to induce Colonel ). r. o.
Seely. Minister for War, to withdraw
his resignation had failed He also
announced that General Ewart and
Field Marshal French had refused to
reconsider their designations.
The Premier eulogiZed both French
and Ewart and said that he deeply
deplored the declaration of Colonel
Il therefore feel It my duty to as
sumo the Secretaryship Of state lor
War" the Premier then announced.
Approved by King.
He added that his action had been
approved by King George. and that
he had taken this important step IN
Difference to public interests, but that
he would be close at hand at the sec
ond reading of the home rule Dill
| This measure comes UP tomorrow
Though Premier Asquith resigned
| his place In Parliament by assuming

retains his post as head of the Gov
eminent. 1t is not necessary for the
Premier to be a member of the House
of Commons He will still direct the
program of his Ministerial colleagues
! though another Minister will have to
serve as the Cabinets spokesman un-
| til Asquith is reelected.
| 1t is possible that Winston Spencer
Churchill First Lord Of the Admiral :
| ty, will have that post, though the
radicals are anxious to have Lloyd
George, Chancellor of the EXChequer,
chosen.
All London Excited.
The excitement over the dramatic
| resignation of the Premier was not
confined to Parliament. 1t caused a
tremendous sensation throughout the
city. where such a startling develop
, ment had not been forecast even by
! the widest rumoTs
After Premier Asquith h d left the
House Of Commons, Colonel Seely eX-
planned his position He said he had
pressed his resignation because there
appeared to have been bargain,
though unintentional, regarding the
services that the army officers should
render the Crown. He followed this
with declaration that he would con-
tinue to support the Premier and the
Government as a whole.
The Unionists attempted to precip-
itate a Parliamentary crisis as re-
suit Of Asquith's resignation. A. b.
mar Law made a protest that IT would
be impossible to take UP the second
reading of the home rule bill in the
| Premier's absence This was a
shrewd movement to turn Asquith's
retirement to advantage.
