ary service, when Premier Asquith
submitted to the house of commons a
bill drafting eligible unmarried men to
military duty, and championed the
measure in tt stirring speech on tho
necessity of this trip to mcct the grow-
ing exigencics of the war.
The scene within the house of com-
mons was one of the most notable in
the history of that body, with the
benchw packed with members, all the
ministerial seats occupied, and the
galleries overflowing.

between the prime minister and his
former colleague, Sir John A. Simon.

caused the late home socrctury's re
