doubt, there is a distinctly CROWNS
opinion In the most influential politicai
circles that only one thing can Improve
the situation at the present time anu
that Is that the Government shoulu 'ahe
the House OF Commons and the country
into It's confidence regarding the present
position of the war.
n one. OF course. Is stupid enough
to suggest hat the Government shouiu
give any Information that might De OF
assistance to the neiny but there uh-
doubtedly Is n strong feeling of IRRITATION
In all quarters of the House at the CON
tinual and persistent evasions or the
Ministers in regard to important facts
which they have In their possession ana
which they deliberately refuse to make
public.
The situation demands that the Prime
Minister should aithout delay make i
