AT TORYISM
Omitted Press Leased wire.)


LONDON, Dec. 26.-Labor's ex-
pected demands from the govern
ment when leaders meet Premier
Lloyd George, Minister of Nation
al Service A. c. Geddes and others
on Friday. was the biggest ques-
ton before Britain today.
The government has indicated
its intention to ask further con-
cessions from British unionism,
permitting heavy new drafts from
its members to supply man power
to the army.
The laborites have intimated
they will accede to such a request,
but it was not anticipated today
they would abandon their safe
guards against drafting without
a counter bargain.
Strong sentiment was noted that
the opportunity would be utilized
to obtain the governments adher-
ence to the principal points in Ia
boris announced war aims-in-
Guiding not only the idea of a
league of nations and no economic
war-after-the-war, but frank and
complete remuneration OF any sup
port by Great Britain. Of imperial

There was growing belief today
that labor might urge also Fl. G..
Wells suggestion that unionism
demand Sir Edward Carson's ex-
pulsion from the ministry as one
who had gone over under pres
sure of British toryism.
