THURSDAY BEBE DANIELS in "THE EXCITERS" Sketch of Life '.'Andrew Bonar Law, for more than 30 years exerted a powerful Influence In British politics. vAs chancellor of the exchequer and one of the five members of the Lloyd George coali tion government during the war, the house of commons on two occasions voted him budgets of I3.S00.S00.0U0 and S3. 2(0.000.00. the largest in the financial history of England. - A statesman with few political en emies. Bonar Law's career was singu lar. He did not enter politics until he was 42 years old. A successful Glas gow Iron merchant who had been born and educated in Canada, his rise to eminence in the British parliament began with his election in 1900 as a unionist from th Blackfrlars division of Glasgow. Strong for tariff reform he became noted for his clear reason ing on that subject and was soon made parliamentary secretary of the board of trade. Later he successively became leader of the unionist or op position party in the house of com mohs. secretary of state for the col onies, a member of the Lloyd George coalition war cabinet! chancellor of the exchequer; and, finally, lord of the privy seal. - A Business Man Primarily a business man, he em ployed the tactics of business rather than the strategy of politics in deal ing with national problems. Leader of the unionist opposition in the house of commons In 1911 to 1915, it was Bonar Law who. at the outset of war proclaimed a party truce. Military reverses in the field and domestic difficulties at home led to the retire ment of the Asquith ministry In 1916 and It was at this time that King George called upon the former Glas gow iron monger to form a cabinet. Wljen he declined, the honor fell to David Lloyd George, the liule Welsh man who had within a few months aa minister of munitions turned . tho British Isles Into one great arms and ammunition factory. Bonar Law was David Lloyd George's Jonathan. As a. member of the premier's war cabinet, as chan cellor of the exchequer and as the coalition government's leader in the house of commons, he enjoyed the fullest confidence of his famous chief It was Bonar Law who for more than four years ot great national peril "interpreted" administration mea sures, parried thrusts against the gov ernment and answered interpellations from the floor. It was his persistency that brought about the evacuation of Galllpoll. of ill-starred Dardanelles campaign fame and the removal of more than 100,000 surviving British soldiers from an untenable position. His statements were generally lucid and convincing, for as the govern ment's mouthpiece a serious mistake In debate might have meant the downfall of the ministry. His services as government leader in the house of commons, a more difficult and thankless position than that of the leader of the opposition, placed Bonar Law high among his illustrious predecessors, Disraeli. Gladstone, Campbell-Bannerman and A. J. Balfour. Health Breaks Down News of his retirements due to ill health In the spring of 1921, came as a shock to his colleagues and tributes to his work were paid even by former bitterest opponents. Former Premier Asquith said: "I have for many years been engaged In giving and taking blows from Mr. Bonar Law but they never left any rancor behind them." Lloyd George, In reading the retiring chancellor's letter of resignation, re peatedly choked back sobs and ex pressed the hope that his friend might return to his duties after a pro longed rest. Finally the premier who had been so courageous and powerful In the conduct of the war, sank back into his seat with a gesture indicating his Inability to continue. Bonar Law's breakdown dated from shortly before the Paris peace conference of 1919 which he attended as one of the British delegates. The disposition of Bonar Law to take the most positive stand on grave public questions caused him some em barrassment toward the end of his career. Ho was an uncompromising foe to the Irish republican movement and when Lord Mayor MacSwiney of Cork, lay dying, a hunger striker in Brixton prison, James Henry Thomas, president of the Trades Union con gress, representing 6, &00, 000 British workers, in session at Portsmouth, Eng., blamed Bonar Law as "the one man more than any other who has justified In Ulster and In parliament the spirit of rebellion." In a speech in Edinburgh the chancellor prophe sied that the government would fail ui.Iess It was "firm" In dealing with Sinn Fein. The desire of Lloyd George and Bonar Law to resume trade relations with Russia through the soviet gov renment also met with " determined resistance from Earl Curzon. the for eign secretary, Winston Churchill, then secretary for war and AuBttn Chamberlain, chancellor of the ex chequer. The difficulty of the situa tion was made greater by the attltuda of France and America where there was opposition to the British plan. The Irish and the Russian problems, coming on the heels of the great war. were believed to have overtaxed Bonar Law's strength, and to have led to his return to private life. Born In Canada P.onar Law was born in New Bruns wick. Canada, on Sept. 1. 1858, tho son of the Rev. James Law, M.A.. of New Brunswick. In early youth he was taken to Glasgow where he at tended high school and finally be came bookkeeper for an Iron firm. Later he was made a member of the . concern and when he retired from business to enter politics was one of tho biggest Iron merchants of Scot land. Golf and chess were his favor ite recreations. Nine years before his election to parliament he married Miss Annie Pltcalrn Roblcy of Glasgow who died in 1909. Six children were born tc them, four sons and two daughters. One daughter, Isabelle. became tho bride of Sir Genoral Frederick Sykes in London In 1920. Two sons werq lost In the war.
