WOMEN MAY DECIDE
PARLIAMENT'S MAKEUP
To Vote First Time in a British
General Election.

LONDON, Oct. 16 (Associated Press) -
In the event of general election the
women of Great Britain will have their
first opportunity to vote for members OF
Parliament, and may decide the politi-
cal drift. i'm the House of Commons.
There have been only bye-elections since
British women were granted the right

Already the politicians are perturbed
over this new force of about 5000. 900
women voters, or about 40 per cent. of
the total electoratc. II is said that this
Is one thing which is deterrlng Mr.
Lloyd George from announcing his posi-

The suffrage leaders now demand that

LLOYD GEORGE STARTS
GENERAL ELECTION PLANS

the strongest political organization in
the country. is TO be bound or free. IL
deprecates what 1t calls the desperation
of the Conservative leaders and believes
the time has come for closing the ranks
that principles may stand for more than
personalities.
The Daily Mail fears a split in the
conservative ranks Thursday, wtsh
Lloyd George taking a big slice of the
party. and warns the Unionlsts to stand
by their traditions rather than give way
to electioneering considerations.
The Daily Netcs hopes that an election
will give us a Government which real
ly stands for something In place of a
chance collection OF ambitious politicians
who represent nothing but their own
aims and theories"
The Chronicle points out that all the
ministerial leaders wish to continue the
coalition, and it is glad the Unionists
have called an early meeting to deter
mine whether they shall be with or
against those leaders. 1t doubts the
possibility of any purely Unionist ma
jority. THE nation is still deeply dem
ocratic." the paper says. land though
for stability's sake it will support the
Unionists inside a coalition with trained
democrats at the head, 1t would vote
very differently II they stood alone as
a reactionary party"
The Westminster Gazette, bitterly
against Lloyd George. is convince1
that Thursdays decision is bound to be
against him. The Telegraph declares
that a breakup of the coalition would
be a political disaster, and says:
The prospect of a new Commons
composed OF half a dozen mutually hos
tile factions is not agreeable to dwell
,,pop Soma sort of coru hina tion ia Drac-
t,cally certain; and II it is to be a COM
bination of those who stand for progress
on the same constitutional lines what
can it be but a renewed partnership of
those elements which It is now proposed
to divorce?" The paper favors the
coalition in preference to giving an op-
portunity to Socialist Labor.

Replying to Henry Cabot Lodges sug
gestion that France put up securities to
cover her debt to the United States,
Maurice Casenave, former French Com
missioner in New York, says in an
article in the Republique Francaise that
tha only security possible is "Germany's
debt to France. Let them take that.
So far as France is concerned she has
no other to offer save the sacrifices she
has suffered and the courage she has
shown in her labor. and her honesty.

continues, will make him understand
that 1t is impossible to admit the shadow
of doubt in our desire to pay our
debts. Since the war we have honored
all our maturing obligations. we are
paying annually $40,0o0.0o0 interest, we
are paying England and Spain and after
the loss of 10000 of our sons we have
spent $4,000, 900. 900 francs of our own
money in order to effect our restoration

NJ. Casenave recalls that in the au-
tumn of 1915, when France was seeking
loans in the United States. the first con-
dition made by American bankers to
participate in such an operation con-
sisted of collateral security. only the
Morgan bank and a few financiers in
New York understood the inconvenience
ard uselessness Of demanding subsidi-
ary guarantees to the signature Of two
of the greatest financial powers In the
world" he says. ut was only in the
face of flat refusal by British and
French negotiators to accept any
operation under these conditions that
the demand for collateral was with
drawn.
