THE Although it has been apparent for some time that a General Election on an appeal by the National Government was inevitable, the various political Parties have not yet had an opportunity of adjusting themselves to tho changed circumstances.

A rapid survey of the situation in Scotland reveals the uncertainty prevailing in most constituencies. A BOMBSHELL IN GLASGOW. championed the cause af Scottish Nationalism. The Labour Party have I.L.P. AND Mr.

not yet decided on a candidate. S. CLARKE. ABOUR'S position is rather vague as result of the decision of the Labour Party at Scarborough to deinand orthodosy from I.L.P. and other candidates.

Logically the Labour Party ought to candidates like Mr. Maxoppose and half a dozen others in Glasgow who put the I.L.P. before the Parliamentary Labour Party. Tue coming week will reveal what is to happen. A bombshell has been flung into Labour circles in the Maryhill Division of Glasgow by the decision of the Maryhill 1.1.P.

not to renominate Mr. John S. Clarke. A similar decision has been taken by Queen's Cross I.L.P. Branch, and it is doubtful if the Possilpark Branch, the only other I.L.P.

Branch in the constituency, will take action in his support. Maryhill and Queen's Cross, I.L.P. Branches have been at loggerheads with Mr. Clarke for a considerable time because of his attitude in associating himself with and voting with the official Labour Party against official policy of the I.L.P., and the position was aggravated by his action in voting in favour of the Unemployment Insurance Anomalies Act. The three I.L.P.

Branches in the Division are meeting to-night to consider the position. The I.L.P. will have a demonstration in the City Hall, Glasgow, on Sunday evening, primarily for pose of dealing with the rent situation, but the meeting will probably part and parcel of the general political campaign. GREENOCK'S THREE. In all probability three candidates will take the field in Greenock.

Sir Godfrey Collins. the sitting member, who for the past twenty years has been returned as a Liberal, will go forward as a supporter of the National Government, and will be opposed by Bailie T. Irwin, Dumbarton, the Labour nominee. and a Communist, who is likely to be Mr. Aitken Ferguson, The Unionist Party are without a candidate.

and it is not anticipated in view of Sir Godfrey's support of the National Government. that they will offer any opposition to hinr. In Paisley. Mr. James Welsh, the sitting member, is assured of opposition from Mr.

CLAIM FOR ACCESS TO CHIEF POSITIONS, In an address delivered at the Scottish Women's Club in Edinburgh yesterday, Miss Margaret Kidd, advocate, said was tremendously important for to be educated to think of some definite work in life and not to be allowed to grow up with the idea that the ultimate end in life was marriage, In the next 20 or 30 years women would become increasingly important, and it was going to matter tremendously not only what they were doing but they were thinking. Women education very, largely had charge of the young people, but very few women were at the top among the educational positions.

The time had come when these positions should be open to women, and they must get people to stop thinking! about what was a man's job or a woman's job; and to think about ability for the particular object of the particular person.

Co-partnership of organisation and activities, projected on a modest scale by Glasgow Presbytery of the Church of Scotland, is likely to result in a considerable saving of labour, money, and time, and to increased efficiency. Six ministers in one district, said the Rev. J. Nelson Macdonald, when reporting last night on Home Missions, each desired an assistant to help with home mission problems. The ministers had agreed to accept the appointment of three assistants in place of the six sought, and each assistant, when appointed, would serve two This is a novel proposal," added Mr, adjacent congregations.

His Majesty empowers me to announce that he has consented." It was by this short and plain statement of the Prime Minister that the House of Commons was officially apprised of the impending close of this Parliament and the imminence of the General Election, news which had been, of course, common knowledge since the midnight Cabinet decision.

The explanation was that after the political whirligig of the last fortnight, culminating in the Government decision of which all M.P.'s were aware long before they reached the House, the actual event smacked of anti-climax. Socialists sat moody and silent, all the fighting spirit, even ail the wit, seemed to have departed with the main hody to the Scarborough Conference. There was not even a bantering shout issued from the small headquarter force which Mr.

V. Alexander commanded in the absence, also at Scarborough, of Sir Henderson and the other chiefs. The stillness and the many empty benches in the House robbing the occasion of any sort of drama, also stressed the logic of what was happening. Alexander pointed that would be a great convenience to all parties" if the Prime Minister could announce the date of the election and also that of dissolution. The Prime Minister replied that that would depend on when they could get the business through, which he hoped would be to-day.

In that case, the election date would be Tuesday, October 27. REMAINING BUSINESS. Mr. McDonald also stated that the House would meet at its usual time today to conclude its remaining business. There would be a Royal Commission giving the royal assent to the Acts passed both Houses, and the present session would then be prorogued, The three measures with which both Houses have to today are Foodstuffs Bill for the prevention of Steering during the period of suspension of the gold standard, the Sunday Per.

There will be piquancy in the fight in West Renfrew, where Dr. Forgan M.V.. who, recently left the La bout Party to join the New Party, is seeking re-election.

Already the Labourists have adopted Mrs. Jean Mann, of Glas gow, while the Unionists have Mr. J. 8. Wedderburn in the field.

In addition, Mr. R. E. Muirhead, who contested the the last election as Scottish Nationalist, is also spoken of ay 40 aspirant for the seat. EDINBURGH POSITION.

PIQUANT PROSPECT. EDINBURGH POSITION. Edinburgh, including Leith, is repre sented at present by three Socialists two Unionists and one Liberal, all whom are standing for re-election. Mr. Jobn Cameron, Advocate Depute, had" been adopted prospective Socialist opponent to Sir Samuel Chap man, but when the National Government was formed, he followed the ample of his chief, the Lord Advocate, and decided to carry on his legal duties.

with the result that he has been thrown over by the Socialists. A candidate to takohis place has not been found. ee-cornered fight is promised in the st Division, where the position of Dr. Drummond Shiels (Socialist) challenged by Mr. John Carmont, K.C (Unionist) and the Rev.

T. T. Alexander (Scottish National Party). The North and West Divisions hare also three candidates each, but in this case it would appear as if some weeding out may yet be done. Mr.

Wm. Graham, President of the Board of Trade in the Socialist Government, had also Liberal and Unionist opponents in 1929, but this time be will have a straight fight with Mr. James C. M. Guy (Unionist).

Mr. Ernest Brown (Liberal) will again have a straight fight with Socialism in Leith, his opponent being Mr. Arthur Woodburn. DUNDEE PROSPECTS. section of the Liberals in Dundee strongly in favour of running but so far their search for 1 champion has not been successful.

The Conservative candidate will be Mist Florence Horsbrugh, an Edinburg lady, the who has been addressing meeting in constituency for a considerable time.

TAXATION TROUBLES CAUSE INDIGESTION That the present epidemic of indigo tion and stomach trouble is due in large measure to taxation worries is actual fact on which the doctors all agree.

Many people are suffering from indigestion for the first time in the lives. The reason is that the nerd which controls the digestive system directly affected by worry and, as the normal process by which the acids are regulated is arrested Excess stomach acid accumulates 004 the pain and discomfort of indigestion assuredly follow. Sleep is disturbed that the nervous system does not get the rest it needs, and a vicious circle is con tinued which can be remedied only neutralising the excess stomach acidity TH thus ensuring undisturbed sleep. simplest and best method of counteract ing the excess acid is to take little Bisurated Magnesia after eating whenever pain is felt.
