ON VERGE OF FALL
Grave Crisis Develops Over Conscrip-
 ton Issue in British Cabinet.

London. April 19.--That grave cab met crisis exists is undeniable but, according to a statement tonight, no resignations have been tendered. It probably will be several days before the crisis is ended.
 The Marquis of Crew. lord presid- ent of the council. in his statement to the House of Lords today. the first of- 6cial admission of the gravity and complexity of the problems dividing the ministers, indicated the possibility that Premier Asquith might not be prepared even on Thursday to make his promised statement, in which case the house would sit on Monday.
 Both sides are marshaling all their available forces for the parliamentary struggle over Sir Edward Carson's motion for universal military service. Strong whips are out and all the snembers of the House of Commons serving at the front have been grant, ed leave to remain in London until 8 division is taken.
 Political gossip tonight centers mainly around Minister of Munitions David Lloyd George and Winston Spencer Churchill and the possibility of MT. Lloyd George. succeeding MT. Asquith as the head of the govern ment.
 While the conscriptionist attack on the ministry is undoubtedly powerful and threatening, there also are strong forces making for the retention of the present coalition ministry-Mr. As quith's, skill in surmounting political difficulties and holding his term to- gether, and the problem of finding and alternative government to present coalition and the repugnance felt in large sections of the country to a change in the government at such a k critical stage.

Mayors Proclamation.

r.. tie Citizens of AshdoWn:
 Whereas. it is the opinion of the City Council and all citizens, that the town should immediately proceed to May day, and it is strictly necessary for the general health of our town, TOW proclaim the week beginning with Monday, April 24th, and ending Saturday, April 18th, as a general clean up week.
 Burn what trash as will burn and pile that which will not burn near the street or alley. The city wagons Will remove same.
 During this week every citizen of Ashdown should make an effort to clean up his house and property so as to avoid fire risk, to clean up his front and back yard, to paint his pre- n.ses if necessary, to abolish all plac- es that might breed flies and mosqui- tos, t. eliminate dandelions and weeds and to help clean up vacant lots.
 Citizens should put their rubbish near the streets or alleys. If collec- ,ion is not immediately made, they should telephone the officials, and it will be moved immediately. If all refuse is placed in such a manner so that it can be easily loaded and cart ed away, Ashdown will be readily cleaned.
 This is an opportunity for every citizen not only to show his personal pride. but also his civic pride. No city is attractive if it is dirty and lit- tered up. All should be willing to CO., operate in cleaning up not only their own premises, but in helping to clean up the premises of others where help is necessary.
 Let us all work together to clean up and paint up Ashdown during this week set aside, and then keep is that way throughout the entire year and for many years to some. Let us plant grass and flowers. Let us make Ash down not only clean, but beautiful. The result will be cleaned, health fer, happier and more attractive city.
