OUCH! RHEUMATISM )i . , r Premier Says Lawful Demand of Civil Power Must Be Un reservedly Obeyed. REFERENDUM . IS REFUSED Definite Declaration Made Home Rule AVill Xot Be Submitted to x Country Federation of Brit ish Isles Referred. LAIYBAIK, Scotland, April 4. Pre. tnier Asquith opened his election cam paign today in .the Masonic Hall of this little village. The hall is a diminu tive building with a holding capacity of 300. Under these circumstances, the speech of the Prime Minister was made to the 60 reporters, present, rather than to the delegates of the Scottish Liberal Associations who filled the rest of the hall. The elaborate telegraphic arrange ments for the circulation ofthe Pre mier's address in the United Kingdom testified to the importance attached to the speech 'a political circles. Premier Asquith quickly approached the subject of the army crisis. He said he had felt it to be his duty in the higher interests of both the army and state to assume his new office "because a grave situation had been created both in regard to the discipline ot the army and in connection with its i elation to the civil power." Armr Barred From Politics. Paying a. tribute to the army, Pre mier Asquith declared: "The British army can be counted oh, from the highest to the lowest rank, without qualification or reserve, to undertake all the duties its obliga tions require it to discharge. The army is not, and I pray may never be come, a political machine. The army has no place and no voice in the making of our policy or the moulding of our laws. The army will hear nothing of politics from me and in re turn I expect to hear nothing of poli tics from the army." Turning to exceptional circumstances in which the army might be called on to assist the civil power, Premier Asquith said: "In such emergencies, it is the duty of the soldier and the duty of the civilian to comply with the lawful de mand of the civil power. The doctrine promulgated lately by the leaders of the Troy party struck at the very root rot only of army discipline, but of democratic government." duration Not to Be Submitted. Mr. Asquith definitely refused the Unionist demand that the question of home rule should be submitted to the electors. He said: "We believe it to be a wise and Just measure. We have disclaimed and will continue to disclaim any submission of it to the country. None the less, we are earnestly anxious, if it is possible, to work out an agreed settlement. "The local option proposed is not only fair, but generous. For myself I repeat that I am anxious for peace. I close no door to a settlement, but peace and I say this for both sides must be peace with honor and in any settle ment reached we must secure the put ting of a home rule bill for Ireland on the statute books. We hope that this is not incompatible with care ful provision for meeting the con victions of the minority and I firmly believe that in time and with ex perience there will be a converging of forces in the direction of complete Irish unity." Plea Made for Labor Support. Before closing Mc. Asquith made a bid for labor support by enumerating the reforms projected. He remarked: "With one exception, recent bye elections have been lost by the gov ernment through a split in the progres sive vote. It is time that state of things came to an end. We must not allow ourselves to be troubled by trivial differences. When united we are Irresistible." The Premier received a great ovation from crowds of excursionists who thronged the village from all parts of Scotland. In the course of his speech, the Premier referred to the proposed fed eral scheme for the British Isles. Such a reconstruction of the constitutional organization, he said, would lead to greater efficiency in the conduct of both local and imperial interests "and the quickened patriotism of every part would stimulate the larger patriotism of the whole."

" Better Babies ' will be one of the subjects discussed at the conference of the American Library Association here May 2o and 30. because of the educa tional campaign conducted by Samuel If.

Senators See Nothing to Be Gained by Holding Bill In Committee and Favor Early Conclusion. WASHINGTON. April 4. Ti ere was every prospect today that the bill to repeal the tolls exemption of the pres ent law would be reported in some form from the Senate committee on inter oceanic canals within a week. Leaders on both sides of the question asserted there would be no unnecessary delay in passing on the House repeal bill In committee. Several Senators who oppose the re peal asserted they would oppose delay in committee, agreeing that nothing could be gained by delay. In view of this attitude, the feeling is growing that the House bill flatly repealing toll exemption for American ships will be reported from the committee without recommendation. Some of the many proposed com promise measures may also be reported in the same manner, leaving It to the Senate to determine the whole controversy.
