LONDON, Nov. 19.---W With q Congery-
ntive government in full power for
the first time in sixteen years and La
horites replacing Liberals as the Official
opposition, the House of Commons will
assemble tomorrow for the swearing
in of members and the election Of
the Speaker in preparation for the state
opening of Parliament by the King on
Thursday.
Although the new session will be
brief, devoted wholly to the Irish treaty
bill, all sorts Of questions can be raised
IN the debate on the address replying
to the speech from the throne, and
while tranquility" still is the govern
ment's slogan, this weeks proceedings
are likely to reveal the new House as
ANYTHING but that.
Premier Bonar Law is expected to
reconstruct his ministry soon, and it is
generally believed he will seek to
stSengthen it by inviting Earl Balfour,
Austen Chamberlain and Sir Robert
Horne, three of the principal Conserva-
tive props of the Lloyd George coali-
tion, to take Office.
Labor Elects Chiefs Tomorrow
The Labor members will meet Tues
! day to elect officers. 1t is expected
john r. Clynes will be rechosen chair
man. with Ramsay Macdonald, one Of
the party's ahlest parliamentarians, as
chief whip. The Laborites are expect
| ed to push tie unemployment problem.
to the forefront in the house, and with
Ramsay Macdonald. Philip Snowden
and Sidney Webb reinforcing Clynes in
| the debate, they will have no difficulty
in making a formidable issue of it.
The situation is being emphasized
| now by the presence of several thou
sand jobless from the provinces, who
have threatened TO besiege Downing
| Street until Bonar Law comedies them
| an interview. Joined by many thou
sands of London's unemployed, they
demonstrated this afternoon in Trafal-
gar Square. They are planning another
monster demonstration for Wednesday
night. on the eve OF the state opening
of Parliament, and they intend to send
| their delegation to the Prime Minis
ter's residence following that
1t is the governments present inten.
tion to deal with unemployment admin
istratively rather than by rev laws
but the Labor party delegation, which
| includes large contingent of radicals
is likely to raise loud protest unless
a legislative program is presented.
Light on Liberals Stand
Some light may be thrown in the
debate this week on the extent to which
the Liberals of both wings will cooper
ate with Che Laborites in the opposi
tion. This is bound to be affected, S,
far as the Georgians are concerned, b,
the fact many sof the ex-Premier,
staunchest lieutenants owe their seat
: to Conservative votes, and some o
them are pledged to give general sup
port to the Bonar Law government.
This rather loose alliance also com
;. .splicates the movement looking TOWARD
7 reunion of the Asquithians and tn,
Georgians, rumors of which are muci
in the air. Lloyd George has not ye
shown his hand, and the anxiety will
