that £40,000 have already

The Conservative Party yester- day issued a leaflet stating that Mr. Baldwin had declared his in- tention to work for Empire free trade, but responsible statesmen could not ignore the difficulties in the way of its immediate adoption, owing firstly to the unwillingness of the Dominions to accept, secondly to the fact that the Colonies' main source of revenue was customs duties, thirdly to the existence of treaties and conven- tions for the regulation of colonial trade which would have to be scrapped, fourthly, the terms of mandates of Mandated Territories would prevent their entering into the scheme, The leaflet adds that the only result of the action of Lords Beaverbrook and Rother- mere in forming the new Party would be to split the Conservative Party and help the cause of the Liberals and Labourites...

CHILDREN'S TREAT..

Must Watch Its Step.

Tokyo, Feb. 23,

The Government's overwhelming victory is generally attributed to the unpopularity of the former Seiyukai administration, rather than to its own popularity. At the same time, it is admitted that its success in the economic field since it came into power last July has given the people con- fidence in the Ministry's ability and sincerity.

It

is generally considered, however, that the Government must how modify its financial and economic policies, if it wishes to retain its popularity, as the drastic rampaign of economy and retrenchment has already, result-
