England's Greatest Problem.ąt. In lungungo pregnant with thought and characteristic of our distinguished Prime Ministor, Mr." | Asquith says that the recurrence. of great strikes makes it in cumbent upon the Government and the business community to solve the problem." This state- wont was made in the Houso of Commons on the 8th inst. On the same occasion, Mr. Lloyd: George, laying aside for the moncolianttacks, in "Limehouse " manner, on the Dukes and the mazo he has created in his In- surance Bill, says: "A searching inquiry by the Government might bo necessary." On the evening of the same date, Mr. Asquith,. addressing a large and influential. ussemblage of London bankers again reverted to the greatest of Englund's problems by asking British bankers "to contributorja: to the solution of the pro- blem of industrial unrest by suggestion and wise and fruitful oxperiment' No matter what may be the cause of the frequent recurrence of the trouble, it is: certain that a grant effort is to be mado to prevent the terrible havoo which the ill-guiled workers have used by having too readily followed the load of the bellicose agitatora.
