Former Premier Asquith in the House
OF Commons moved an amendment cx-
PRESSING regret that the extravaganza
or the Government had imposed on the
country a pressing burden OF taxation
and that II had been unable to make a
definite promise that taxation would be
reduced in order to stimulate trade and
decrease unemployment. The Geddes
report on possible Government econo-
mics. he said. had justified the charge
contained In his amendment.
referring to the criticism OF tho esti-
mates OF the fghting services Mr.. AS
quith compared the prewar expenditure
OF the army and navy--fS0. .000. .000--to
this years estimates of fl70. 900. 900. and
remarked that the only thing that
unhappily marred the qualification at
the most remarkable gathering in WASH
ington," was that the question OF land
armamcnts was excluded from consid-
Grafton and that the conference did not
feel able to deal--as he was glad to
think the British representatives had
pressed II strongly TO deal with the ques-
tion OF submarines.

fcated, 24l to %.

LONDON FEARS GRAVE
IRISH TROUBLE AHEAD
'EUening Standard Believes
Civil War Impending.

LONDON, Feb. 13 (Associated Press).
The Irish situation since the raids over
the Ulster border has steadily become
worse, and no secret is made of the
grave alarm with which it is viewed in
Official circles in London. Winston
Spencer Churchill Secretary for the
Colonies, declared in the House of Com
mons this afternoon that the shooting Of
the Ulster special constables at Clones
had greatly aggravated the situation.
The Epe,ting Standard asserts that
Ireland Is on the brink of civil war
and quotes member of the Government
as saying that while the Government
hesitates to do anything which the Sim
Foiners could interpret as provocative.
swift military preparatio..s have already
been made to prevent an armed invasion
of Fermanagh and Tyrone.
In the light of the developments of the
last few days. much Significance IS at
tached to the suspension to-day of the
evacuation of British troops from south
ern Irish ports. The Irish Office cx-
plains that the suspension was ordered
pending decision regarding the extent
of the reinforcements to be sent to
Ulster. Sir James Craig. Ulster Premier,
announced tonight that the Ulster gar
rson Of British troops was to be in
creased from ten battalons. the previous
number to fourteen.
Sir James telegraphed the British
Government tonight asking what action,
"other than dispatching messages to
Dublin" the Government was taking or
had taken to secure the return of the
kidnapped loyalists.
In conformity with the decision to re-
lease Irish political prisoners in Eng
land the Government liberated seventeen
this afternoon. The release OF the
others Is expected to follow shortly
Hilarious scenes were witnessed at the
Peterhead railway station when those
released to-day boarded the train. They
had been serving terms varying from
three to ten years penal servitude. most
of them having been found in posses
sion OF arms In Scotland. They sang
THE Soldiers Song as the train de-
Parted.
Disorders in southern Ireland also
continue. Two daring bank robberies oc-
CURED to-day at Sligo. Eight men drove
up in an automobile to the Bank of
Ireland. held up the employees and got
away with about 1900. About the same
time the Provincial Bank was raidcd
and robbed OF 60, 900.
