llbu. l". l. Cardin is expected to take a dc- fiuite stand against the Liovernutctifs policy of co-otieratioti with the rest of the nation, but it is believed that he hopes to do this by capturing at least some of the Liberal Party machine, and not by an open break with his Party. A divis- ion of opinion results among Liberal Members from Quebec at Ottawa. EXClllCling those who ltavc broken openly with the Party, one-third are said to be in favour of open support of the War. and to be willing even to accept coit- erription for overseas service; one-third are de- termiuctl tn remain in the Liberal caucus as long as possible. and still hope to do so, without taking too many risks with their own voters, and tine-third are fatalistically assuming that they :iud the Liberal Partv are finished in Quebec. (fompctcut French-Canadian observers, free front too-acute Partv bias, insist that, if he is hold enough in his sttpport of the \Var, Premier fiodbout can safely depend on a maiority in the urxt Legislature-but oulv if Mr. King undoes the llllSlRhC over bccr.
