Lloyd George Not Likely to Be
Able TO Halt Disaster

CRISIS GROWING NEARER
Premier May Appeal for Coali-
ZIONIST Votes, Promising
Stable Peace.
Special Wireless Despatch to TIE sur.

Copyright, 1919; oil rights reserved
LONDON. April 12.-During the alb
seDce Of Premier Lloyd George In Paris
the coalition government Is drifting
rapidly toward the rocks. according to
expert opinion hero. When the Prime
Minister returns next week he will make
probably an eloquent appeal to the
House Of Commons showing the neces-
sity of presenting a united front during
this critical period and thereby may
stave of a general election, It Is said
here, but the postponement, 1t Is pre-
dicted. will not be for long. as all signs
point toward a Governmental crisis
Lack of faith in the Governments
ability to make good It's prediction
pledges. it is pointed out, combined with
the peoples ire when the forthcoming
budget figures are made public, will
create an exceedingly precarious situa-
ton for the followers Of Lloyd George.
In a by-election, Thursday in Hull.
TO fill a vacancy due to the death OF Sir
Mark Sykes. the Liberal candidate.
Lieut. Commander Kenworthy, gained
5000 votes over the Liberal showing in
December. His opponent. Lord Eus-
tace Percy, had been picked as the
winner but lost by margin that Is
regarded as showing a pronounced lack
of support for coalition, and Is the
second serious setback It has had this
year..
The 500 members of Parliament who
have been sending kilograms to Paris
have not the strength to face the Prime
Minister when he returns with the threat
of a general election. The Premier will
argue that he has stated repeatedly
hat oh al he
could and that he has pressed the claims
of Great Britain against the Germans up
to the limit and even beyond the limit
of what the financial experts think the
Germans can pay.
II he should be hard pressed the Pre-
mier could appeal to the country for
the ratification OF the peace terms, in
which the indemnity would be only a
minor point The great body OF the
people want only peace and he would
tell them that by voting against the coal
ition Government they would endanger
peace, divide the Allies and play into the
hands OF the Bolsheviki.
The indemnity party Is not eager to
face such an election. Its members
might complain that they had been de-
ceived. but the voters might take the
view that II would be better not to return
to power a party which had proved so
gullible. Such methods. used by the
Premier, easily might whip the Liberals
into shape and smooth the situation for
the time being, but it is agreed that the
quarrel between Lloyd George and the
Tory party on the indemnity question
has brought the coalition to the verge Of
ruin.
1t will continue on the way for some
time, but there Is bad weather ahead.
Some political prophets give It six
months; others two years. The Tories
are inclined TO avoid trouble until after
they have passed tariff REFORM the
budget and the land acquisition bill
which gives a large bonus to landlords
who allow some OF their land to be used
for soldiers settlements,

Magnificent Ferns.

The giant tree ferns Of the Bontoc
'egion Of the Philippine islands are
he tallest and most graceful tree
'erns In the world, not excepting the
south American tree ferns which
row to a majestic size. Most tree
Ierns have short trunks, but the Phil
ppine ferns resemble palms, the older
rees growing up into tall, straight
runks. They grow along the edge Of
he forest and quickly spring up In
hearings, soon overlapping thlckets Of
)ambo0 and other smaller gr0wths.
rhe seeds are minute and die almost
instantly after they fall unless they
ind favorable soil. II Is also practl-
ally impossible tc transplant the
ioung ferns. Various attempts have
)een made to transplant small plants

lens in the United States, but thus

cheering feats of modern times. leads
over IA shoulder of this mountain (Slm-

Land & Cattle Co. for a considers
tion of $32, 1000, it being an 800 acre
tract, six miles north Of Clovis and

then purchased $40 acres between
Clovis and Texico, turning it for a
satisfactory price a few days later,
