CHALLENGE TO LABOUR.

CONDEMNED AS MISTAKE. TTnit'd Service. LONDON, Oct. 15.

Whether Labour sha'l or shall not be allowed to fovern seems likely to be the fcasiF, of the Government's appeal, both to Coalition members of Parliament, and to the conn try at the elections, judging from Mr. Austen Chamberlain's Bpeech on Saturday.

Mr. Chamberlain's attack on Labour was »o surprise. Mr. J. H. Thomas, vicecl.airman of the Parliamentary Labour Party, says "It is evident that the Coalition's battle-cry will be, ' A wicked Labour Government.' We accept the challenge. I feel happy respecting tha oatcT/ne."

Mr. .J. R. Clynes, chairman of the Parliamentary Labour Party, declares that the Government is trying to shield itself by shouting, " Beware of Labour." The Times, in a leader, pronounces Mr. Chamberlain's speech as a failure, and Mrs that it was an unwise, unfair, misleading, and deliberate attempt to conjure Labour Party as a terrible menace. It betrayed an attitude of mind which demonstrated ihat the Government waa no longer fitted to control tho destinies of a natioD.
