Lulu to hear Dwight ask casually:

BRITISH PARLIAMENTARY Forms

Inc statement is made in the press dispatches
that it Premier Lloyd George of Great Britain re-
signs his act will be followed by the RESIGNATION Of
something like twenty other cabinet officers and
minor ministers, and that this would precin;tate a
small general election, which, it appears, is desired
by none of the factions now contendine for s,,nre,,,-
acy. ~ up"
Inns brings to notice one Of the many features
IN which the methods of popular government in
Ireat Britain differ from the methods With which
we IN TINS country are familiar. The British es-
ecutlve department consists Of the cabinet, with a
number OF department heads Of lust a little less than
cabinet rank. All these men must be members Of
parliament, with the house representation predom-
mating. A premier's position depends entirely on
tne support which he can command in the House of
commons. When that support fails he must retire,
'or ne can no longer obtain the legislation which he
deslres. When a premier resigns for any reason,
the King calls on the man who is supposed to be
assured OF the SUPPORT Of the majority to take
charge, and the new premier then names the Other
ministers. 1t ministers are reappointed they con-
tinue to serve as before, But a new minister, al.
though he is already a member Of parliament, must
again be elected by his constituency, not as a plain
member OF the cabinet, but as a member of the adj
ninistrative body.
1t, IN the present case, twenty ministers should
resign, twenty others must be appointed, and these
twenty must go back to their constituencies 70 have
their appointment ratified. With a score Of local
elections going on at the same time in as MANY dis.
tr1cts scattered throughout the kingdom, the situa-
ton would bear a very strong resemblance to a gen
ready. - ~

Intelligent efforts to lessen professional gam

destructive practice, injurious to public morals. But,
