Strange Bedfellows.

London. November 21.

Mr. Baldwin, in a speech at Reading, said it was curious to End the Opposition complaining that they did not want an election. He was surprised that Mr. Asquith and Mr. Lloyd George had climbed, into the same bed; he preferred to wait till the morning to see which kicked the other out. Far from being a trick election, it was in- evitable. He was hopeful of establishing the sugar industry in Britain by remission of the excise duty. There was no reason why! there should not be half a million acres, instead of 15.000 ander sugar beet in England.

THE AMBASSADORS DECISIONS.

BRITAIN DESIRES A MODIFICATION.

Paris, November 21. The British Government's instructions to Lord Crewe, with regard to the proposed Allied Notes to Germany reached the British Embassy this morning. The British Government ask that certain! changes be made in the drafts approved at the Conference of Am- bassadors. The Ambassadors are now separately considering the British views.

Paris, November 21. Following an exchange of views regarding the provisional agree- ment of ry-terday, the Allied Governments have agreed on the terms of the Notes which are being forwarded to Germany.

The fire Note denies that military control has contributed to disorders and insists on the resumption of control. reserving the right to tak such measures as may seem proper in the event of the Commission of Control being.obstructed by the German authorities. sor citizens.

The second Note deals with the ex Crown Prince. It accepts the assurances of the German Note, cabled yesterday, but never- theless declares that the ex-Crown Prince's presence in German territory is likely to provoke serious complications for Germany at home and abroad. It holds the German Government responsible for any consequences which might compel the Allies to confer upon

measures necessary to deal with the situation.
