Tho con- scription crisis that threatens a Cabi- net upheaval at the same time is welding together many discordant groups in Parliament in support of the Asquith ministry. Some of the most bitter opponents of conscription are using their influence to stem the talk of a general election, believing it might have a serious effect upon England's fortunes in the war, On the other hand, several leading supporters of the Government declare they would welcome a general elec- tion. They believe the people would indors conscription by overwheiming majorities and return the Asquith ministry to power armed with a vote of confidence that would stifle tne opposition for the balance of the war. Another source of gratification to the Government's supporters was the fact that opponents of conscription rallied only 105 votes on the first reading of the bill to 403 for the Government. The resignation from the Ministry ef Arthur Henderson, labor member, and of two other labor officers, an Under Secretary and Lord Commis- sioner of the Treasury, revived) Fumors that other Cabinet members Would quit, though the reports were Rot generally credited. Admittedly one of the most serious factors in the whole situation was the thinly veiled hint dropped by President Bellamy of the railway men’s union that a railway strike might follow an attempt to enforce ption. Bellamy declared at the Labor Congress that compulsion Was @ direct blow ai ‘ganized labor and said it might arouse passions “that sy Shee King’s Government it F BACK HURTS TAKE SALTS 10 FLUSH KIDNEYS Says Backache is sure sign you have been eating too much meat.

And she did so. ROOSEVELT DREAMS OF PLUNG- ING COUNTRY INTO WAR. “Mr, Roosevelt is war mad,” Miss Keller told me. “He {ts the moat bloodthirsty man In the United States, When he ts not dreaming about plunging this country into war and shedding the blood of men he is writ. ing books about his own prowess in shedding the blood of animals.” “And who is the most bloodthiraty man in Europe?” I inquired. “The Czar,” replied Helen Keller promptly, and she smiled the sweet, quick smile that is so charged with life, so warm with womanliness. “I know you expected me to say the aiser,” she added, “but the Kaiser has never turned cannon upon his own people as the Czar has done. ‘Thy Kaiser has never massacred the Jows.” “Have men a monopoly of war madness?” I inquired. “If the rulers] and statesmen of Europe were women, instead of men, would they have found a way to avert war?” “No, Miss Keller answered, “Wom- en are as war mad as men, They fos- ter and encourage the idea of blood- shed by giving thelr admiration to| ; the heroes of the battleficld. I will believe that all women are genuine pacifists when I hear that they are bringing up theif children to abhor the heroes of war and to honor the heroes of peace.” “Who are the heroes of peace?” I asked. “How shall we know them?” Again Miss Keller's face was ir- radiated by her wonderful smile. Helen Keller thinks visibly and before she answers you sometimes she has a quiet smile, sometimes even a Little laugh, at what she {s about to say. “The hero of peace,” she said, “is the man who develops a new potato or the man who makes two onions grow in the place of one, Surely he is a better citizen than he who makes one man live where two lived before. The heroines of peace," sho adde “are women like Mme, Montessori, who developed a wonderful new free system of education In the face of op. position from church and state. And every woman Who bears a child is heroine of peace,” said Helen Keller. “We have heard talk of a ‘birth strike’ by women as a protest against war," she continued gently, “but sure- ly the losses on the battlefield are slight when compared with those in the industrial war, the war between capital and labor which goes on all the time. FODDER FOR CANNON AND FOD- DER FOR FACTORIES, “Ig there a choice between produc- Ing cannon fodder and factory fod- der?
