IFS" AND ANDS AND BUTS. MR. CHAMBERLAINS DEFENCR By a Student of Politics. WESTMINSTER WEDNESDAY. To-day WM.

a greet histories occasion. Our financial situation is more serious than it has ver been in oui history and the awakening the country to the. facts has happily coincided with. great revival in too vigour and independence of Parliament. Would Parliament rise to the height of the opportunity Would it vindicate its primary duty of guarding sound finance as the secret of democratic liberty 1 Born to greatness from the humble parentage of finance.

would it make the present financial Lf troubles the occasion of a re-birth into its old influence and prestige Raving overthrown the old enemies to popular liberties. was it equal to wing Demos from being tyrannized over by his servants I To-day left the answer doubtful. With the best of will this House of Commons is not strong in debating power and it is particularly susceptible to. the arts of the old Parliamentary hand. The result was debate from which the Government to be frank undoubtedly carried off a very handsome bouquet.

But finance is not a rhetorical contest end big bills like bad smells cannot be settled by argument. The House of Commons is learning by experience and one of the lessons of to-day is that as yet it is no math for the Government in tin big field' menauvres of rhetoric. It would be well advisee for the present to adopt the tactics of light mounted infantry. MR. CHAMBERLAINS IFS.

Mr. Chamberlains faults as a speaker served him in good stead. When a man looks melancholy and talks cheerfully ordinary men become almost. hilariously light-hearted. It was a well-arranged and artful Speech and it was delivered with' the air of a plain.

blunt man. He is no orator like Brutus and so the Corn- mrns abandoned itself unsuspecting to the arts. But after all what does the speech boil down to That if we overlook the deficit in the current year of 500 millions and if we neglect the floating debt of bout 1500 millions. and if we forget the new world' that we are creating including the houses for heroes end the scores of schemes that will all cost money and the Government which is out. by nearly 250 millions in trying to see sue months ahead in the current year able to see two years ahead the arrival of the normal" year then in times of profound peace we may be able' to balance expenditure and income on i IV- hi the basis of the taxation levied during the last year of the hardest struggle For existence that we ever known.

The Lobbies are said to have ed enthusiasm at the prospect but it would soon evaporate in the cold air. Some peoples consolations are worse than up nurses. Ms CHAMBERLAIN had some good points PS that the yield of the present taxes is resilient Lord mners point in the Lords that the condominium at the Treasury has been resolved i the discovery of a new genius that a Finance Committee of the' Cabinet has been formed. that' many. economies have been effected already.

and so on. He is against a general levy on capital and a special levy on capital accumulated out of. by reason of. oz' during the war would he feared. produce as little sgthe new taxes in the Budget of 1910 Mr.

Lloyd George was there. and seemed to nod approval owing to the tenderhearted- ness of the Government when a hard tale is poured into its ear. He is therefore. against a fresh Budget this year. He doesn't mind a committee on war profits levy but if there were a general levy he would resign a threat that caused a shudder to pass through the House.

BO wound up were its feelings. Ap. parently there is to' be snore borrowing until we reach the normal year of 800 millions on either side of the account. Oh. Mr.

Chamberlain Sea-DONALD MICLEA. a little embarrassed by the prospect of our reaching this year. i next' year sometime soon normal years without additional taxation as though interest on loans were not also taxation took refuge in generalities not ill-expressed MB. Anasoi as usual talked some good sense. which however.

conies out too Slowly. like the fan. of Lodore in Scotch treacle SIR ARTts Lr- pave the devil his duo and said that the impulse to economy had come from without and MR. Rnrn.L was as he always is clever ane held the- House. He almost persuaded the Hou to-day that his excess of 118 millions on the estimate represented an actual saving.

It was odd that so able a man end so good a debater should snake the mistake of raising the odium ftobthr MfJf1t. The only point rrw n1 inning Bolshevism at all was to show that it had nothing to do with his increased esti. mat and he would have been wiser to he left it lit that. His great fault as a Parlia. mc is that he sharpens his pencils until he breaks the point.

THE. TWO BROAD ISSUES. Two broad issues have emerged from the debate so far as it has. gone. Fir is the deficit of 500 millions end the Floating Debt to be met by borrowing.

whi-h i apparently the Idea. or by fresh taxation of me ora i oeconcuy is uie House content to take a Budget of fOO millions four times our war Budget and twice even if we allow for the diminished value of money. the normal for the future Tim second question. is even more important than the rst as reduction of expenditure is more important than the upkeep of the present rate of living. If the House is so content it is surely very lacking in ambition.

Unless the Commons can reduce the expendi. ture to something like the war level it will have failed in. the judgment of the country. MR. CBAMBERUHS" made the point that if all the Government staffs were reduced to their war level the saving would still be only matter of 20 millions and members seemed to be impressed.

They forgot two things. It is not so much what the bureaucracy costs in salaries that counts as the expenditure of money that their employment represents. It is not merely superfluity of numbers. but the bad example that work at pressure sets all round. This attack on overgrown official staffs and the multiplication of Government Departments.

may not raise the biggest financial issue. but here is the strategic point. in the fight against the new vested interests of bureaucracy. If the economists can carry that they can carry the rest and happily these are not wantingsigns that their ka have done good service. But every one recognizes that the big economies can only be brought about by changes of policy.

Overthrow the official vested interest in expenditure a such. reduce staffs to' a reasonable size. and then put it to Che Depart. ments that they must reduce their expenditure to within the limits fixed by a consideration of whatire can aord and the results win be astonishing. But the outworks of waste and of war indifference to public economy must be carried first and good progress is being made.

AJUCMf tuvl gMW MW A 3av fcP III mmn It is for the House of Commons to take up the attack and carry it through to those broad isBaea of national policy on which the huge ig that ire necessary must depend FORTUNES Mr. Vhmbar11n speech in the Hause of Commonsyesterday Un national finance was throughout its tenor curiously aloof front the resolution lie was proposing which had seemed to imply that the Government was prepared to make" proposals however' drastic for the reduction of expenditure I the diminution of debt. ring' to the position disclosed in the White Papers. he admitted that it was a grave one but he deprecated any panic or hysteria about the figures. He insisted that the position now was distinctly better than he feared it would be in August.

The" revenue was coming in extraordinarily well. Even the 20 millions. drop in the Estimate for Excess Profits Duty was not money lost it would add to the receipts next year. Customs and Excise would bring in 38 minions more than the Budget Estimate. 15 millions of this being accounted for by the' increased barrelage of seer.

Tea would yield four millions extra end tobacco an additional 1 minions. These items showed the good trade renditions. Stamp duties would be up by four millions. He described the coming deficit as less than he ex. ected in August.

and it increase on the Budget Estimate as due to determent of appropriations in id rather than to' expansion in expendi. The most striking part of Mr. Chamberlains speech followed. He announced that he no onger thought as he did in August that now taxation would be needed next year to balance incomings sad outgoings. He gave no actual figures.

however in elucidation of this statement. The actual increase of expenditure this ear over the Budget estimate was 133000000. ut of this war pensions war bonuses extra police grants and strike expenses accounted or 44000000 loans to. Allies. 32000000 and higher pay for Army and Navy 21500000 97500000 in all.

Which of these figures id his critics challenge As to the remain- rig 38000000 he asked the House to consider the strain placed on us by the postponement of peace. and especially the delay in a settlement over Turkey. For years the Treasury had been under. staffed for any proper exercise of control over expenditure. It had now been reorganized and its hands were strengthened.

AX EXD TOSraSIDIES As regards the subsidies now being paid. that on coal was practically at an end in the case of the railways it would end with the coming revision of rates the work donation would cease on November 21 and the Government looked forward to terminating the bread' subsidy as soon as possible. The Army and the NY were rapidly being reduced in numbers he feared that the next criticism would be that they had been reduced too rapidly. As to the Debt. he had already reduced the total floating debt by 126000000 and the Ways and Means advances alone by 212000000.

But unless a new loan were issued he would have to expect an increase in Treasury bills during this financial year. Our external indebtedness. meanwhile. WM being reduced so that only that to the rated States would remain approximately" unchanged at the end of March. Arrangements had been completed for repaying the HI millions sterling due to Japan on December 15.

There was no need for a second Budget now nor for immediate imposition' of addi. tional taxation. He was still opposed to the idea of a general capital levy. But a special levy on wealth accumulated by reason of or out of or during the war was another matter and he would not dispute its equity. The Inland Revenue Department had already been instructed to report on it and he proposed that it should be inquired into by a Select Committee.

In conclusion. Mr. Chamberlain declared that our future safety must lie in greater production. But on the position as now disclosed no additional taxation would be required to balance future Budgets. and no fresh borrowing would be required on revenue account after this year.

SILVER AT 66JD. PER OUNCE. EFFECT ON THE COINAGE. The price of bar silver rose yesterday further to 66 Jo. per ounce in the London market.

on continued purchases for China. It has thus reached the point at which our silver coins are worth their. face value as metal the first time this' has been known in history. At 66 per ounce for. the metal it is no longer possible for' the Mint to produce the' coins of our silver currency and circulate them at a profit.

The resulting situation is discussed in our City Notes. where it is stated that an Order in Council is expected prohibiting the melting down of our silver currency. LARKIN REFUSED PASSPORTS. THREATENED GENERAL STRIKE IN IRELAND.

The Prime Minister will speak before dinner. and Mr. Bonsi Law will probably wind up the debate for the Government. An important speech is expected ram Lord Robert Cecil. AN ELECTIONEERING SPEECH.

Mr. Chamberlains speech acted like a drug upon a great part of the House of Commons. Its effects were beginning to wear off towards the end of the evening. but for a time the Lobby was seeing everything through rose spectacles. The first phase of the reaction from this unnatural exhilaration was a feeling of bewilderment the second a period of questioning the third a mood of incredulity.

The less experienced members of the Coalition forces began to take heed of the warnings of the more pram- tired hands. Those who had some acquaintance with polite. cal strategy had early come to the conclusion that it was an electioneering speech. The impression has been steadily gaining ground that the present Parliament will not outlive next year. A Government which is never tired of threatening its followers with a General Election would naturally wish' it to be fought on the issue and in the atmosphere or its choosing.

Still the precedent of Mr. Gladstone's Dissolu tion in' 1874 is not a happy one for an appeal to the pocket of the taxpayer. Mr. Gladstone offered if he was returned to power to abolish the tax which then stood at 3d. in the pound.

The electors of half a century ago chose to judge his claims on larger considerations of national interest and Mr. Gladstone had to give way to Mr. Disraeli and a permanent income- tax. How different in kind is the new appeal It is for a renewal of support for the Government on the promise that. an tax of 6s.

shall not be increased. But as Unionists of the old school pointed out what the reuntry expects and has i invariably Obtained hitherto after a war has' been a reduction of taxation. The Parliamentary demand for a sweeping reduction of expenditure' is based on the desire for a balancing of the national finances now and a progressive diminution of the burden on the community in the years 0 come. AN AMAZING CHANGE. Mr.

Chamberlain was criticized as much for his astonishing change of tone as for his complete failure to provide the House with material by which to test his conclusions. It was en amazing experience to be told that what had been black Id weeks ago was now white as snow. Vhat chiefly troubled the House was that no Chancellor of the Exchequer in our history had ever been so unfortunate with his Estimates as Mr. Chamberlain. Yet here he was submitting a new Estimate shorn of all detail which went beyond the wildest dreams of his most sanguine supporters.

Solemn warnings of impending bankruptcy. Estimates which were proved in six months to be out by hundreds of millions. White Papers showing a rapidly mounting deficit a staggering accumulation of debt and a paper currency larger than at any time in our history all these official guides to the financial position seemed to have lost their meaning. It was no wonder that the student of Disraeli the novelist not the states- man echoed the remark' or one of his char. teters No debt no credit.

For that waa the sort of foundation on which the new financial fabrli was built. TO-DAY'S DIVISION. To-day's debate may give us a clearer view of the position. Yesterday the Government took I full advantage of the unexampled position which they secured at the General Election. Mr.

Chamberlain was supported on either hand by Mr. Lloyd George and Mr. Bonar Law both ol whom have served the office of Chancellor ol the Exchequer. But outside the ranks of the Government there was nobody with any experi- coos of the Treasury to cheek Mr. Chamberlains occasional figures and more frequent generalizations.

There was no ex-Chancellor of the Exchequerand not even an Financial Seer-a. tary to the Treasury to give the House of Corn- mons an expert opinion on the Governments change of front. This handicap rosy have been to some extent made good by the time for the resumption of the debate to-day. But it seems probable that' the Government are in little danger of a bad division. If the Coalition is sceptical of the Chancellor of the Exchequers optimism its opportunism will not have been appealed to in vain.

NZ MIXERS' DEMANDS. EFFECT ON SHIPPING. rxoac OCR OWN COHBESPOSDENT. WELLINGTON NZ OCT. 29.

The waterside workers here have' declined to discharge two steamers loaded with 6000 tons of Newcastle NW coal. The employers of waterside labour have therefore resolved to refrain from engaging labour for other cargo till the Union arranges to handle the coal. The wharves are idle and some steamers are already delayed. All coastal traffic is expected soon to be affecfed. The Union officials declare themselves unable to state the cause of the men's refusal to dis.

charge the coal. It is understood that too reason is that they fear lest the mineowzjer should use Australian coal to defeat the miners' demands. THE TYPHUS DANGER. A telegram from London to the League of Red Cross Societies at Geneva announces the sailing of a ship filled with medical relief stores for Poland for use in the fight against the typhus epidemic. The League recently sent a medical commission to Poland which investi.

The ship was due to arrive at Danzig yester. day. It carries medical and general supplies contributed to the League by the Australian and American Red Cross.

Jr GENERAL SEELYS ADMISSIONS.

AN AERONAUTICAL The serious ilnona made by General Seely In the House of Commons on Tuesday in answer to a question by Sir W. Hicks relating to the lives and machines lost in the air route to Egyp' serve also to illustrate the extravagance which Is still practised by the Air Ministry. Owiersl Scelr said that owing to urgent necessity 41 Handler Page machines had loft England by alt foe Egypt. Out of those It had arrived In Egypt 1 er on later stages of the route and II hadbeett totally creaked and Written oft. He.

gave as the reasons for sanding the machines by air the urgent need in Egypt for tn machines and the fact that us Ifandisy Page had yet been packed and tent by tea. As a matter of bet there were at the time and re tin some hundreds of machine in Egypt tot which no use can be found and it Js hard to understand the necessity for Bending out more. Again the statement that Handley Pages have nonr been packed and sent by sea I incorrect Messrs. Ilandley Page having packed sad dispatched machines by sea to India. China and South America.

The attempt to Send these a I Handley Page machines by air to Egypt without efficient ground organization and without a sufficient number of skilled pilots and mechanics has cart the nation the UVes of eight young officers serious Injury to four otiiers and a urn of over 200000 at a sunder-ate estimate. The of pndine the mm hfnMi by sea would not more than 750 per machine a total of 37250 Hut in addition to this tag of money the valuable lives of the pilots would not haw been lest and at the machines would have reached their destination ready for service. The time occupied on the sea voyage allowing days for erection would have been about a month. and it La evident that even In the event of alt the machines making successful trips by air that time could not have been greatly reduced as each aplane would have had to undergo a complete overhaul at the end of its journey. The success of the daily commercial air services to and from the Continent shows that with efficient organization such a flight as that to Egypt can be accomplished without mishap and emphasizes the inefficiency of Air Ministry methods which have led to the loss of IS fine aeroplanse to say nothing of valuable lives.

ARMY UNIFORM. REPORT OF SIR A. MURRAY'S. COMMITTEE We are informed that the. report of Sir Archibald Murray's Committee on the future clothing of the Army has not yet been considered by the War Council.

The Committee completed its report some weeks ego and it is understood that. although no minority report was put forward there was considerable diversity of opinion as to the retention of the war red blue. and green tunics. While members were strongly in favour of retaining en attractive full-dress uniform as desirable for recruiting and the maintenance of etpril de corps and discipline. others strongly urged the retention of khaki for practically all arms it being the oolour of sacrifice crowned by victory.

It was pointed out that all the cherished badges and other regimental distinctions could be worn equally well on a khaki tunic as on the war uniforms. The committee generally were of opinion that the kilt of the Scottish regiments must remain and that the head dresses and other distinctive features of the footguards and Household Cavalry might be preserved for full-dress purposes. It. was generally agreed however that a reduction was very desirable in the number of uniforms which officers were i expected to provide in war tines. CONTROL OF BIG HOTELS.

CHARGES AGAINST CHICAGO MEAT PACKERS. race. om coiaasramasn. NEW YORK OCT. 29.

Letters produced in evidence before the Interstate Commerce Commission at Chicago have established that the Big Five meat packers extended the ramifications of their operations to several of the large New York hotels in which they have acquired interests in order to obtain the exclusive right of supply to them not only of meat but of other foodstuffs in which they deal extensively.

The left flank the army had advanced and captured 300 pri. Boners. A later report states that General Yunitchs Army is attacking successfully west or Knanw Slo.

It has advanced about three miles nearer 14. Kr snoe-Selo and has captured 1500 Com. munits with a Commipsar. An Esthonian report says fierce fiehtini is going on between Tsarskoe Selo and Gatchnu. Vudenitclis Army has captured a Red battalion of 600 I learrj that Trotsky's personal stuff was up- turret by the Russian advance guard during the first burst of the offensive.

The stall consisted of two officers of high rank and four. Jewish commissars. Trotsky himself barely escaped fleeing under fire in a motor-car. The Russian officer in command offered the St. Georges Cross to whoever brought down Trotsky but the teen over-excited.

missed their aim. The Tank Corps continues to win a golden reputation indeed it appears to be considered impossible to take a step without their aid. Reliance is placed to such au extent on the Tanks that the crews find it difficult to obtain the necessary rest. A remarkable feat reflecting credit upon Colonel Carson and his men was performed in crossing the River Lug. which was considered impracticable.

Colonel Carson has received the Order of St. Anne. REDS DEFENCE PLANS. Direct news from Petrograd is to the ett that the Bolshevists have arranged to systems of internal fortification the inner based on central points of the city. such as the Marine Cadet Schoolthe BoursethePeter andPauliortreesthfl Grand Duke Nicholas's Palace and the Academy of Medicine for which purpose 6400 men 22 Held guns and 82 machine-guns have been assigned.

The outer system comprises stations on the principal suburban roads where- tear anti-aircraft batteries also 4in. naval guns are placed and extensive entanglements erected. Pontoon bridges have been constructed across the Sega. The Reds propose in case of necessity to retreat eastward towards Schlusselbnrg Noyaya and Ladoga blowing up the bridzes. which are mined and strongly guarded.

The streets of Petrograd are empty the people fearing to be seized and set to trench work. The streets are brilliantly lit and trarpwaycars are running day and night for- military purposes. This is possible owing to the coal recently received from the Urals. it is reported to the amount of 125000 tons. Civilians are starving bread is 250 roubles a pound butter 1000 sod apples 200 apiece.

There is reason to believe that German trade representatives are making active arrange3 to collar the Chamber of Commerce authorized by General Yudenitch according to the scheme of Viborg Russian business men. I am informed that preliminary sittings of German agents have already been held with the object named at Moscow and Petrograd. ENTERTAINMENTS INDEX. for detail. see THEATRES.
