GUARANTEES OF LOYALTY
EEBUKE TO SIR GEORGE
YOUNGER.
LONDON, 6th March
The Daily Express says a definite scheme has been agreed to by the Conservative leaders for patching up the Coalition, and at the same time giving the Prime Minister the guarantees of loyalty demanded from the Conservative Party. Mr. Chamberlain will -write a letter to Sir George Younger, instructing him to conform in future to the policy of his own chiefs, and see that the Conservative Party machine does not move independently of the Front Bench, and therefore of Cabinet as a whole. In order that there may be nothing invidious in selecting the'Tory manager for this veiled rebuke, a similar letter has been addressed to Mr. C. A. M'Curdy (chief 'Coalition Liberal Whip) by Mr. X.loyd George. The speech by Sir Arthur Balfour to-day will be directed towards reinforcing this, decision. _ The Premier expressed himself as satisfied with these steps, and has withdrawn his resignation.
