Be Averted Over Enlistment
of Married Men

time since the beginning of the war
political enemies of Premier Asquith are
trying to overthrow the Cabinet Taking
advantage of the critical situation brought
about by the movement to compel the en-.
llstment of married men. the political foes
of the Premier are making attacks against
him
All the newspapers today commented at
length upon the political outlook, some of
them going so far as to predict that a
crisis cannot be averted.
Lord Derby and David Lloyd.George,
Minister of Munitions, are among the fore.
most leaders of the movement to extend
conscription to married men, but the
scheme has been consistently opposed by
the Premier.
The Morning Post openly demands the
resignation Of the Premier If Mr.. Asquith
refuses TO resign, says the Morning Post,
he should be forced out of office for the
national good.
The Times also delivered severe at
tack against the Prime Minister,

PLEASURE BEACH.

The bill on at the open air theatre for the last half of the week promises to be one of the hits Of the season. All three acts have appeared before in this city and were received so well by Bridgeport audiences that the Park management thought it advisa- ble to book them for a return en- gagement Clark q Lewis in songs and dance, '"The Youngsters'' in beau- tiful poses, and Him ManteIl, the great whistling mimic. are bound to hold the crowd. both afternoon and evening.
 Everything is in readiness for Police Day, Saturday, and one of the greatest crowds ever seen at an amusement park Is expected. The baseball rivalry between the two ball teams is very keen. and big league ball Is promised. As the Masked Marvel,' catcher for Captain O'Leary's team is coming to the park by night, the back entrance to the ball field will be well patrolled by the men from the East Side to prevent his threatened abduction.
 The police have expended $500 for an exhibit of fireworks, so a wonder full treat is in store for the visitors along that line. The popular concert Sunday afternoon and evening will be held as usual.
