Some of you may have read that the Prime Minister was tired, feeble, or rattled. You may take it he is often tired, be may have been feeble, but was never rattled. (Laughter. and cheers.)

You may take it from ene that what makes the Prime Minister tired when he thinks of it, is to see the results of last year's leadership of industrial labour, To see any prospect of improve- mens in the conditions of our co- ple being dissipated by the folly of the men's own leaders is by far the most depressing fact in politics at the present day.

That same kind of loyalty that was shown by the men in the war men to their leaders, but when was shown in labour struggles by you watch that kind of loyalty you feet it is worth the finest leadership the world can put forward, and they have not had it (Cheers) Many men have Baid Labour did not have a square deal from me. I think it is a far more serious thing it did not get a square deal from its own leaders (Choera)

Saskat chewan to Patagonia, but you. see the vibration go down the filaments of that web, perhaps causing struggles and perhaps bloodshed at some place ten thou- sand miles away.

And it is these unseen burdens which have constantly to be borne by those who are responsible for the Governments of the countries. of the world to-day. These are the burdens that nothing can lift, but they can be eased, and eased indeed they are in my case by the generosity and affection which you always give mek

Mr. Baldwin said the Government bad been thrown a little out of its stride by the events of last year.
