Government Appears Sure
of Passing Man
Power Bill
Labor May Join
Asquith Adherents
Nationalist Urge Publica-
ton of Irish Conven-
ton Report
By Arthur S. Draper
(Tribune Cable Service),


LONDON, April 11.-Although the
criticism of the governments man.
power measure increases as the debate
proceeds and the opposition hardens,
there is no reason to modify the state
mcnt made in these dispatches yes
terday that the government will carry
it through. The Nationalists will
press their fight to the end, but their
threats Of armed resistance to any
enforcement Of CONSUMPTION are hardly
likely to alter the position the gov
crnmcnt has taken.
In some quarters the governments
attitude is branded as suicidal, but
the general view is that compromise
will be made eventually. Many Of the
Liberal followers of Asquith consider
the Irish provision in the bill great
mistake, but whether they will join the
Nationalsts when it comes up for de-
bate is another matter Whatever lead
Asuuith gives will be followed by
majority of the Liberals and probably
the Labor members as we'll.
The seriousness of the political
situation was illustrated when Bonar
Law introduced the so-called guillo
IlUC ICSOlullOll lOL tlc lIOt lliaC oiA\V
the outbreak of the war.
The Nationalists protested against
the delay in the publication of the re-
port on the Irish Convention, but
Bonar Law explained that it was be-
ing printed in Dublin. Both Joseph
Devln and John Dillon asked why the
government issued the order forbid
ding press comment on the report, but
Bonar Law replied that he was un-
aware that any such order had been
issued.
The pacfists profess to see poll
teal crisis and the unseating of Lloyd
George ahead but although there is
hard opposition to the Premier, ma
Jority of the members consider this a
poor time to make change. Moth
ing counts but the war, and the coun-
try is looking ahead and not behind,
although it is exceedingly bitter about
many things. clubbing over minor
questions goes against the grain of
the majority.

Washington. Continuance of government control of railroads for five years, or until January l, 1924, was recommended by Director Gen eral McAdoo in letter to the cnaIr- man of the Senate and House Inter- state Commerce Committees.

 This recommendation is not made in support Of any theories concerning the best ultimate policy of running the railroads. Mr MeAdoo explain ed. but only to give the nation time to form It's ideas carefully.

People outside of Washington do not care very much what happens In regard to the organization of committees ill congress-. and so to them the Norris resolution is not important This res olution Is intended to defeat the pow CT which now exists In coterle of old senators because they are Ut the top of and control most of the important committees of the senate. It Is rather surprising that new senators, and those who have long served on com mittees of little or no importance. have allowed the good places to be monopo- lized by the older senators, but that Is one of the traditions ~ the senate. The Norris resolution, in proposing to distribute these good committee places In q more equitable manner, may be the germ of revolution.
