 Although Austen Chamberlain de- clared yesterday in his Oxford address that the cabinet still is solidly behind Lloyd George. 1t had little effect on the situation, which now threatens to bring about the resignation of the prime minister This Is the opinion of majority of the leading political writers today, all of whom concede that the crisis is acute. Even the coz servative journals which are most anxious to preserve the coalition gov ernment now admit the seriousness of the Premier's position. with the power erful Ulsterites banded against him.
 In the meanwhile, throughout the ex- citing scenes of the campaign. Lloyd George remains calm and is contin- nally on the aggressive. His leader ship is unquestioned, but the new CO., alition of leaders leagued against him now threatens his downfall.
 This dramatic situation comes as result of the opposition of the power full Conservatives, who assert that the Unionists betrayed their followers and whose one desire now is to sec the death of the coalition.
