of our foreign policy in Europe is to bring about a good understanding between France and Germany, while giving France the assurance that she will not be left unaided if she were again the victim of an unpro Tokel aggression by Germany similar to- that which took place in Angust, 1914. We have how definitely made that offer to France. It is quite true it is a limited offer. It engages only to help to defend the soil of France if France is the victim of an unprovoked invasion by Germany. It is also quite true that, we have reduced our Army to such a point that we You will say to me: You are exaggera have really no army to send at the beginning of a war.

Is it not a very serious situation that there should be growing so rapidly is this country a gigantic party pledged in one form or another, some going farther than others no doubt, some wishing to proceed peacefully and others violently," but all pledged in allegiance to the Socialist "itical, all moving forward, consciously or uncons ciously, towards that absurd and perilous Utopia? Since the General Election there have been sixty-nine contested by elections. Siz haudred and ninety-thousand votes have been cast for the Coalition, and no fewer than 500,000 have been cast for Socialist candidates alone. Faced by that menace, Liberals and Conservatives have joined together and have decisisely defeated it. What they have done in the municipal sphere they will equally be forced do, whether they like it or not, in the Parliamentary sphere..
After pointing out that we must not forget the great potentialities of the Empire, which counmed an enormous proportion of British goods, Mr. Churchill continued: The very serious trade depression from which we are suffering a due mainly to world causes. We are trying to right those causes. Since I was last here, we have been labouring almost continuously to reduce the expenditure of the country. The cost of administering the country is epormous, and I am far from saying that we have yet reached the proper development of the economy which is necessary. At any rate, we have, as between one year and another, succeeded in reducing over £180,000,000 of expenditura sum al- most equal to the total Budget of the country before the "war-and, owing to the financial measures which have cea taken to improve British credit, we have saved another considerable auto in the interest and sinking funds which it is necessary for us to provide. But there is one subject upon which I mast make my position clear to you. I do not think THE we can contemplate reducing the British Navy below the level of the One-Power standard."(Loud chcers.)

THE POLITICAL SITUATION:
One supreme issue is, arising in our country which not only at the next election come when it may-but perhaps at many others that will follow in its train, will array the British people in two opposite camps.
