But Labor comes back without a leader of any moment except Ben Tll Jett, and all the Parliamentary experi ence, as well as the bis battalions, are with Premier Lloyd George's coalition. But ITemler Lloyd George himself is the bond slave of the great Tory block behind him. and he is far less master In his own house now than in the last Parliament. Every one of his coalition supporters owe their seats not to him. but to the Tory votes which he secured for them by his pact with Bonar Law and Carson. Lloyd George and his Liberal follow ers do not represent Liberalism In any sense they represent so much as the Tones were prepared to throw them for the sake of camouflaging the new Government as a coalition, whereas in truth it represents the essence of Tory ism, and will be run by the Tories, jingoes, imperialists and militarists and every influence to which Lloyd George is supposed to be hostile. Weaaea Fare Badly. The women have fared badly, partly because they represented the militant suffragettes, but mainly because there had been no time to organize the wom en's vote and get the proper women candidates. Various electoral Influences were at work in securing this overwhelming majority nominally for Lloyd George. First of all, was the leeling that he did more than any other British Min ister to win the war: secondly, that former Premier Asquith had taken the matter entirely too easily: even did not attempt to put any fire into his party campaign, and in fact was a deaden ing influence throughout; thirdly, be cause the Labor Party was suspected of leanings toward .the pacifists (every one of the pacif ist-Laborites and kadicaia have been defeated): fourthly, the fear of Bolshevism if labor sot the upper hand; fifthly, the Tory confidence that In voting for Lloyd George and the Liberals they were strengthening and not weakening their own position.

Lloyd George is the man of the hour in Great Britain. with a clear majority of 250 In the new Parliament, which many prognosti- cators believe will be short lived and will have a stormy existence and will be amenable to the Premier only under the big stick. He is faced with aome of the gravest problems, domestic as well as foreign, that ever have faced a British Premier. It should bo demonstrated how far many of his reactionary associates mean to go In the matter of a League of Nations policy, which now seems un doubtedly the chief link in the conver sations between l'resident Wilson and the tPremler. It also should be demon- Isfactory Rnd having engendered high hope of harmonious action at the peace conference. The elections had dis tracted attention of the British from the prospective conference and had naturally raised to undue prominence certain popular and personal issues, such as the punishment of the ex-Kaiser, for instance. That question has now been submerged and there is general rec ognition of the duty of the govern ment to settle down in the Paris meet ings to the adjustment of really vital peace problems. Whether or not the report may be accurate, that a basis of agreement In pcaco matters has been reached be twecn the President and the British Government, it is certainly believed in authoritative quarters here that nub stantial progress toward agreement has been made, and that the air has been cleared of certain misconceptions re garding the American and British points of view. Keeping of Pledges Sworn. It may be said that Premier Lloyd George is under no misapprehension respecting the magnitude of the task he has undertaken or the difficulties he must overcome. In his determina tion to secure a lasting peace, these dif ficulties will not present themselves merely In the peace conference, but they alBO are inherent in the constitu tion of -his parliamentary authority. His outspoken avowal to his constitu ents of Carnarvon that unless the gov ernment shall try its best to fulfill Its promises "I pledge myself not to re main at the head of the government. tion policies which the Premier has espoused, and which the Sinn Feiners' sweep of Ireland shows how immed late is the necessity of solving the Irish situation. The Sinn Fein will be the .third party In strength in the House, if they change their minds and go to West minster, which, however, they say they will not do. although the Countess Marktewicz might do so to create sensation, sne being the only woman elected. In his handling of the problems af fecting labor Lloyd George has the support of ten Labor Coalitionists, characterised by Labor as "Kepreeen tattves. There is a rumor that "Winston Spencer Churchill may go to Paris as a peace delegate, but his recent elec tion f ulminations. favoring a big Brit ish fleet to guarantee the peace rather! tion was to ginger up the government other mandate,' leant. Power to dissolve Parliament and to compel another appeal to the people. which resides in him as Premier, is the most potent weapon he possesses with which to counter the reactionary ten dencies which will surely develop in the high Tory majority of the coalition. He is under no Illusion in that matter and his career shows, whatever may be said of his political actions, that he he has indomitable courage. His declaration may have been prompted by the efforts of certain ex treme Tories to set up a sort of Tory vigilance committee to guard against his "kicking over the traces.

' (Copyright. 1!)1S. by the New York World. Published by arrangement. VIENNA, Dec. 29. (Special cable.) The. Department .of Health has just issued a sensational report regarding the suffering of the Viennese since the beginning of the war. Though people require from 2500 to 5G00 food calories daily, Vienna's war rations, still in force and not always obtain able at that, yielded only 748 calories a day. The result has been that a large number of persons have lost upward of 38 pounds in the last four years, liven the wealthy lost an average of 25 pounds. Deaths rose appallingly, the city of Vienna alone registering 46,131 last year, against 33.268 in 1914. Kvery fourth death within the city boundaries is now dqe to tuberculosis, which has assumed proportions that cause doctors the gravest alarm. Al though it is impossible to tell the num ber of deaths due to starvation, the re port states that from 7 to 11 per cent I of the deaths this year have been due I to underfeeding, but official reports of post mortem examinations say the percentage is much higher, ranging be tween 24 and 30 per cent. The health of the children is Caus ing great anxiety, for out of 56,800 examined during the year by the medi cal authorities only 4637 were found in a healthy condition. Their loss in weight is considerable, especially in children between 10 and 16 years of age. whose average weight is only 77 pounds, whereas the normal average hould be 95 pounds. Moreover, these hildren have not grown a-f all since the outbreak of the war, with the result that the generation of future mothers and fathers consists largely of stunted adolescents with premature ly old faces, pallid and hollow-eyed. - than a League of Nations, puts him out of the running; so well-Informed per sons say. Ha may, however, be in the new Cabinet formation, which is also an immediate problem, although little new blood is expected to be infused. is reported that Mr. Churchill will suc ceed Lord Milner at the War Office. The selection of a new Ambassador to Washington is said to be occupying the attention cf the Premier, for It is gen erally believed that Lord Reading may not return. Lord Robert Cecil's name Is prominently mentioned ir. this in the prosecution of the war. The Liberal war committee now represents a large proportion of Lloyd George s Liberal-Coalition Parliament following. The movement now afoot in Tory luarters is to extend the scope of work of the Tory war committee, with the view of watching over the interests of British imperialism in connection with peace negotiations. The Premier may well resent this scheme of supervision. considering the overwhelming vote of combined Toryism and Liberalism which has re-established him in power.

As a sign of the disposition of the Tory majority to leave no doubt of their resolve to dominate Parliament, this extension of the functions of the Tory war committee, if made effective. is highly important. Although there is onal provision in England ament the rights possessed by the American Senate in respect to treaties, that function could be just as effectually exercised in Parliament by defeating the government, if the peace conditions should prove- unacceptable to the majority of the House; and that majority happens, in this case, to be Tory.

J.ONDON, Jan. 3. An article written by a member f the allied naval com mission in German waters on the sub ject of food conditions lit North Ger many is published by the Times today. The writer is careful to point out that he deals only with what various mem bers of the commission saw with their own eyes in a very considerable area and that he ignores hearsay evidence regarding other parts of Germany. "If food conditions In the rest of Germany," he says, "are not very much worse than in Oldenburg, Mecklenburg and Schleswlg-Holstein, there is cer tainly no need for haste on the part of the allies in going to their re lief.

He may have any office he will choose in the new government, but per haps the condition of his health and his unwillingness to sacrifice again his great legal practice, as well as his ambition to be the next Tory Premier, may decide him to remain outside. But he may be reckoned with, in or out of power, and particularly if he accepts the office of chairman of the new Tory war committee. Lloyd George's desire to have repre sentative labor members in the Cabinet is shared by his Tory colleagues, but he Is unlikely to find labor members will ing to serve unless he shall choose them from the ranks of the Coalition Laborltc, who are disowned by the la bor party, and who owe their return to Parliament largely to Tory votes. Irish Question Grave. Aside from the Premier's other diffi culties there is the eternal L-ish ques tion, which, at this moment has as sumed "a most sinister aspect, the gravest known in the relations of the two countries. According to Lloyd George's own pa per, this condition has been developed from the extinction of the Constitu tional Nationalist party and the en thronement of the ltepublican-Intran-igeant Sinn Fein. Ministers who fancied it clever pon tics to assist the Sinn Feiners, in order to get the upper hand of the National ists, are face to face with a real revo lution in Ireland, as the immediate con sequence of their manipulations. With so many puzzling and dangerous prob lems te worry him, Lloyd George will need all his resources to carry him through the Jungle of obstacles that confront him at the proudest moment of his career.
