This Information was given by Lord
and Lady Amor when the famous Vir
ginia beauty received him In her mag
nificent home here.
- "We are after the premier to come to
Plymouth and make an electioneering
speech In my interests," said the vis
countess. "He's a very busy man, and
I don't know whether we'll succeed, but
I'm hoping to beat the band. It would
be a wonderful climax. I am having a
delightful time."
Her ladyship has adopted typical
American methods of electioneering.

HAS IRISH SOLtTTIOIf
"What is your idea on Ireland?" I
"I am in favor of the devolution on
Ireland and the British empire. That
is the only solution I can see that will
solve the Ulster question. It is the only
question. It would be wonderful if a
solution for the unhappy country could
be found.
"Free trade is needed as much as the
League of Nations. It would be great
if the whole world would adopt both.
But my particular job is to place the
woman's viewpoint before the com
mons. That has never been done.
"Tdon't care if I am upsetting a hide
bound custom. It'll do them good to
have the sound views that I want to
put forward."
FOE THE PEOPLE
Asked what the voters thought of an
American woman sitting in the house of
commons. Lady Astor flashed back:
"Well, what belter person could they
want? I am a native of Virginia and
have lived in Devonshire, and I can
fight my battles with all the spirit of
the Pilgrim fathers. I have been here
10 years and have worked hard for the
people, for schools and maternity homes
and all sorts of things like that. The
people know me and believe In me. and
I am for them.
"The-people here are for the navy. I
am a Unionist, for that's the party that
Is the best friend of the British navy,
which safeguards the world and civiliza
tion." Her ladyship refused, however, to
discuss prohibition further than she has
already done. She is showing her teeth
to those trying to make an Issue of
"local option" the same as in the United
States.
' My solution," said she, "is not prohi
bMior. but temperance. Let the people
all have their way."
Lady Astor is extremely bitter
against the war profiteers.
"Nothing is more repulsive to me than
profiteering," she declared, "but who Is
going to decide what war profits are?
I would have them all forfeited If pos
sible, but I am not an economist that
Is, outside my province."
DEEP RELIGIOUS SENSE
Under her humorous lively outward
demeanor, there is a deep religious sense
and earnestness of conviction. She dis
cussed with me the spiritual necessity In
politics.
"We need the women's spiritual help
to run the government." she said.
The viscountess Is extremely confident
that sha will win. She Is already plan
ning the details of her program and
looking into the question of selecting liv
ing quarters in London. Her confidence
is based partly upon her knowledge that
she is very popular with the people of
Plymouth. Even her opponent, Isaac
Foote. a liberal, calls her "Nancy" and
aamits that she is a very capable
woman." She returns the compliment by
saying she likes him.
GOOD IfATTJRED FIGHT
mere is absolutely no bitterness in
the campaign, but a thoroughly good
naturea fight. Here's the way she
summed up her own fellings:
"Although I am the most serious'
minded woman in Britain. I have the
mirth of the British Tommy going over
the top with a smile. I have the welfare
of my people at heart. I know their
needs and am going to get them what
tney want.
I know Mr. Lloyd George well. I
spent a holiday with him in Brittany.
His heart Is as sound as a dollar and
he has courage and has the welfare of
the country at heart. Believe me, I am
for reforming the house of lords. Isn't
it ridiculous that my husband should be
denied the right of sitting in the com
mons while I am allowed to take a
seat there If I am elected.
"My husband," she continued. "Is go
ing to renounce his title if possible to
get back to the commons, where he can
do something. The lords are backwash
and you can't stir backwash."
