Mr. Asquith, speaking at Tayport, stated that what was wanted in connection with the Vete Conference was patience and confidence, which it would be found had not been misplaced.
Mr. Austin Chamberlain, speaking at Truro, said no member of the Conference desired to prolong its sittings a moment longer than would bo useful, but "time, and ample time, must be allowed for consideration of the great problom submitted. Mr. Arthur Henderson (Labour member), in a speech at Nottingham, stated that if an agreement was impossible, and yet the Conference continued with closed doors until after the Coronation, when an appeal to the country was still inevitable, that would be an unparalleled betrayal of the democracy. The "Chronicle" says if the members of the existing Conference suggest an enlarged. Conference, Liberal opinion will require a satisfactory statement on account. HOME RULE ALL ROUND!
