MR ASQUITH': REBUKE TO THE "BACKBITERS:"

Loxnos, July 29, - ถ : The point in air Asquith's speech to which prominence is given in the papers is the rebuke Backbiters who depress the Allies and encourage the 3710 energy. There was an immense demonstration at the word backbiters" and an echoing cheer when Mr Asquith thanked the Press for its patriotism with one or two melancholy and notorious exceptions."

The Morning Post" says there has been nothing in Westminster compar able to the ignominious collapse of the agitation nominally directed against the 9udjournment but really an intrigue against one or two of the leading members of the Cabinet. Pressure of all kinds had been exerted on the members and no effort spared to make it appear that strong public opisica was behind the con spiratore.

The result was that only two voices were heard in favour of the amendment." The Government issued a three line whip, in response to which 302 mom- bars, many in khaki, were present. The number included ranny who had not been seen in the House since the beginning of the war..

The Daily News" says that not six members would have supported Sir H. Dalziel and Sir A. Markham against the Government. Members fiercely endorsed Afr. Lloyd George's warning against the plotters.

The Daily Mail" says that Mr Asquith has the House of Commons under his thumb so that they had no difficulty in getting it to agree to adjourn for a holiday at this critical time.
