RUMOURS OF A CONFLICT IN THE CABINET OVER THE POLICY TO BE ADOPTED REGARD. ING THE DECEMBER WAR DEBT INSTALMENT, MENTIONED IN THE "TELEGRAPH" YESTER- DAY, APPEAR ONLY TOO WELL FOUNDED.

Mr. Ramsay MacDonald, Mr. Stanley Baldwin and Mr. J. H. Thomas are said to be ranged on one side, in favour of payment, and Mr. Neville Chamberlain and Sir John Simon are on the other, prepared to go ever! to the length of default.

Mr. Montagu Norman, the Governor of the Bank of England, who was called into conference yesterday, is reported to have informed Mr. Chamberlain that de- fault would be disastrous to British credit.

THE CABINET IS NOW FIGHTING OUT ITS DIF- FERENCES. THE MATTER HAS GONE BEYOND THE QUESTION OF THE TEXT OF THE SECOND NOTE TO BE SENT TO THE UNITED STATES. THE WHOLE WAR DEBTS POLICY IS NOW THE SUBJECT OF REVIEW AND THERE IS GRAVE DANGER OF A CABINET BREACH ON THE ISSUES.

Striking fentures are * light waterproof hat of the deer stalk- ed pattern, which can be folded into the pocket, an open necked tunic and shirt, dull bronze but- tons and, badges.

The purpose of the new uniform In to reduce weight, incrcuse com-i fort, and generally to be more hygienic.

LIGHTER EQUIPMENT. The new guipment which is about seven pounds lighter than the old, discards the waterbottle and the haveraack, reduces the size of the bayonet; has a new pattern entrenching tool, and contains an easily detachable pouch which has already been issued to two bat- talions as an experiment.—British Wireless.

Shanghai, Nov. 29. Yet another message has gone to Geneva from China demanding speedy settlement of the Man- churian dispute and the restora- tion of the territory to China.

The Mohammedan National Federation committee are the Authors of the latest message which states:

"We fifty million Chinese Mohammedans request the League to settle speedily and impartially the Manchurian problem in order to maintain world peace,

"We insist upon the return to Ching of the Three Eastern Pro- vinces, which have been invaded, by Japan.

In places the gule reached a force of over eighty Tuesday when the debate on the miles an hour. Townships on the Northern Ireland coast, the North Wales coast, both sides of Scotland, and the English East coast, had a week-end of wild wet weather which caused a considerable amount of minor damage.

In the Orkneys, the storm was the worst for over forty years, the tremendous seas sweeping in from the Atlantic with awe-inspiring regularity, pounded away relentlessly at the new pier extension at Kirkwall until it was entirely demolished.

Seas of seventy feet high dashed against the build- ings, leaving the new pier a hopeless wreek.

The full force of the gale was felt in the North Sea from the Thames Estuary to the extreme north of Scotland. Huge seas swept the East coast towns. Wind velocities of from sixty to eighty miles an hour were recorded. All steamer traffic in the North Sea bad extremely hazardous passages, the Continental steamers being hours behind schedule, while most of the cargo shipping raced for shelter.
