We are reminded of the man who complained that his

character had been grossly defamed and threatened instant legal action if a full retractation and apology were not published. When, however, the offender retorted that what he had said was perfectly true, and that he would gladly appear in the Law Courts and repeat every word, the would-be plaintiff replied, " Well, lend me £10 for a month and I will say no more about it." The statement of Mr. Lloyd George's inten- tions was made by Mr. Chamberlain in the House of Commons on Tuesday.. The vote of confidence will be taken on April 3rd. Incidentally, we may remark that we have not heard before

of a Prime Minister asking for a vote of confidence on his foreign policy before he brings that policy into operation.
