LONDON, November 10.—The whole of England is agog with Prime Min- ister Baldwin's political sensation Wil he take an election before €hristmas or after Christmas, or will be turn tail and run away? Nobody knows, but the general impression here is that he has now }gone foo far to retreat. But why did he spring the mine? Why did he sacrifice shis %ig majority and four years in office’ for this fool- ish adventure? His own party is in confuston on the subject. The hot heads want protection dt all costs. The wiser heads are angry at the tdea of sacrificing offics and em- barking on a doubtful adventure at the polls. \ Business World Ajgry.
