Blame for Strike Placed
On British Prime Minister
Especial Cable to The washinEtOn Herald

BY JOHN STEELE.

LONDON. April l0.-"The biggest
fgame-up in the history OF British
politics" was the description applied
to the coal crisis this afternoon by
one of the best informed politicians
in England. who declares the whole
crisis was foreseen and managed by
Premier Lloyd George. who is plan
ming to dissolve Parliament in June
and take a chance on general
election securing him a triumph as
saving the country from anarchy.
This man alleges Lloyd Georges
private sources of information told
him there would be a coal strike
about the beginning of April. This
was the cause OF his attacking the
Labor party in a speech a month
ago. He then definitely put labor in
wrong in the eyes Of the cnnserVa-
tive Englishman.

At the same time he prepared
military measures for show OF de-

get most Of what they wanted with

moved lust as he had planned. Rad
icals threatened the destruction OF
the mines by the withdrawal OF the
bumpers, justifying his mobiliza-
tion of troops.
The saner laborites, alarmed at
the situation. threw all their weight
in favor Of a compromise, securing
the premier's help. II a settlement
arrives the next day or two. as now
seems certain. Lloyd George will be
able to take the credit Of saving the
country once again. This will com
mend him to. the Tory party of
xhich he now plans to take the deh-
mite leadership. abandoning LIBERAL
ism, which is politically dead.
Tories Lead Nation.
The Tories are the strongest
single party in England today. and

the next election. 1t is also a fact
that an election soon will be neces-
