"DESPERATELY WEAK"
CONSERVATIVE’S PLIGHT. MR BALDWIN’S TASK. Australian and N.Z. Cable Association. (Received October 29, 12.45 a.m.) LONDON, October 28. The “Sunday Times” says that the condition© of commerce are so topsyturvy that the strictest free-trader can hardly maintain that matters should be left to work out their own salvation. It may be necessary to make the fiscal system more flexible than at present, but Mr Baldwin and his party have a long row to hoe if they seek to persuade the country that protection would suit better than free trade. The “Sunday Express’’ says that the announcement that Mr Winston Churchill would speak at Manchester on November 23rd, shows which wav the wind is blowing. The joint wings of the Liberal Party are able to supply a formidable list of speakers, while the Conservatives are desperately weak.
