Crisis This Week
1t looked last night as if crisis

speech delivered nowadays is an ell.
ection manifesto, and Premier Mac.
Donald himself, contrary to custom
is giving to the press interviews in
which he accuses the liberal leaders
of forcing an election on the country
on unjustifiable grounds.
Apparently convinced that the
liberals are determined to force the
situation, the ministers are disposed
to meet the challenge Immediately
without waiting for defeat on Che
Russian treaty at the end of the
month.
To Meet Issue Now
A cabinet council discussed the
situation yesterday and according to
the chief labor whip, Ben Spoor, the
ministers have decided to offer the
strongest resistance both to the con-
sentative motion for q vote of CEN
sure and the amendment to the mo-
ton to be moved by Sir John Simon
liberal, that instead of censurirg
the government select committee
shall be appointed to investigate the
circumstances leading to the with
drawal Of the prosecution OF the
editor of the workers weekly on a
charge Of sedition.
Premier Macdonald will deliver :
long speech at the Labor party con
gress today and should he confirm
. this decision it can hardly near
more than defeat of the govern
ment next Wednesday with con
sequent dissolution of parliament
and elections during the second
week of November.
