MR CHURCHILL'S SPEECH
UNIONIST PRESS COMPIAINTS. (Received March 16th, 10.30 p.m.) LONDON, March 16. Unionist newspapers complain that Mr Churchill's peremptory tone is calculated to increase the difficulties. The challenge to take or leave the offer as stated is not justified until Mr x\squith discloses far more about it than heretofore. Meanwhile to-day's statement is eagerly awaited. It is understood that Mr Asquith does not intend to make any further offer, or to -withdraw the existing one, at present. The "Daily Chronicle" attributes the Unionist objection to the Ulster time limit to the belief that two general ejections will not displace the present Government. It adds: "The Ministry offer the olive branch, being anxious to conciliate, but they will not bo blackmailed."
