(By the Asso ciated Press) The British people ap parently must await until the next cabinet meeting before learning how Prime Minister Baldwin proposes to act in the present political crisis. Humors that he has already decided to resign are branded as untrue in conservative quarters." His supporters In the press advise him not to resign. Ills opponents as strongly say It is as Impossible that he remain as prime minister. The Dally Mail says that at a week end conference three of the cabinet urged the premier to resign imme diately and advise the king to Invite Kamsay McDonald, labor leader, to form a cabinet, a course to which Mr. Baldwin agreed. The other ministers emphatically dissented. 1 This group, tho newspaper adds, has proposed Austin Chamberlin as premier.

'In staring that a reduction In tax ation carries with It an obligation not to embark upon an extraordinary ex penditure program, I am not unmind ful of the demand for adjusted com pensation for soldiers of the World war. which would Include among its beneficiaries the able-bodied veterans as well as tho disabled. I question if there is any sound reason for such a measure. The country Is prosperous and remunerative employment Is available for the able-bodied voterani as well as for other citizens. "For the disabled eteran of the war and the dependents of those who fell the country can not do too much. It has already spent nearly two Bil lions of dollars and now is npending nearly half a billion dollars in their behalf. That obligation It must and will continue to fulfil in utmost mea sure. And it Is one of the most im portant of the duties and privileges of the chief executive to minister to the wants and needs of these wards and creditors of the nation. "Hut tho fit and able-bodied are offered the opportunity open to every other citizen. The government has no money to distribute to any class of its citizens that it docs not take from the pockets of the people and the pay ment of a bonus to millions of our former soldiers could only be accom plished at a cost to the whole com munity, including the veterans them selves, far outweighing the benefits intended to be. conferred. If I felt that a soldiers bonns represented a great need nnd a proper obligation which should be fulfilled by this na tion, I certainly would not make a recommendation which would be ad verse thereto. "We have now reached a point In our financial program --where we can lighten the tax burden of tho people, which is an added reason for taking a firm stand against any and all pro grams of spending that would tend to absorb the expected margin between receipts nnd expenditures."
