MR. J. L. GARVIN'S WARNING

FORESEE'S ANOTHER CON- SERVATIVE DEBACLE.

Mr. J. L. Garvin, distussing the recent by-elections in the Observer under the beadings "Bosworth Field, a Turning Point in Politics," says the Government's easy dream

of a second term of office is over.

A debacle is as possible as that dream,

The results of five by-elections in popular constituencies, Mr. Garvin proceeds. shows a steady, severe, | and even sweeping reduction of the Conservative vote, contrasting with large increases of Opposition polls. How can the most fatuous of conventional partisans continue to affect blindness to the meaning of these things? The meaning is that already in the country the electoral basis of Mr. Baldwin's enormous but artificial majority in the House of Commons has dis appeared. On these lines disaster faces him and them."

On the forms of the last few months the reunited Liberal party has an excellent chance to win well over a hundred seats, and has every prospect of holding the balance of power in the next House of Com- mons. In that event, circumstances might compel the Conservatives to put Mr. Lloyd George inta office.
