Five years ago Australia was para
lyzed by a general strike, which began
with grievance among the railway men
at Sydney. Naturally the government
determined to fight the strike. and called
for volunteers, with remarkable results
Schoolboys and students turned out to
run the street railways, while farmers
and clerks came forward to operate the
steam roads and work on the docks. So
efticacious were the methods of the
strike-breakers that work was resumed
by all concerned within five weeks.

Those who were expecting a sensa-
tional announcement from the retiring
premier were disappointed. There was
no suggestion of the formation of a
new party.
Mr.. Lloyd George declared the whole
bent of his mind was democratic and
progressive and he ardently defended
the coalition as an instrument by
which the country had done its part
in winning the war and through which
reconstruction had been effected.
Further along in his speech Lloyd
George said:

try that whatever the future may bring
forth l will do nothing mean or paltry
I will not play any part which is un-
worthy of the confidence that has beer
