July. . 578.55 In September 1925, Mr. King was granted dissolution by His Excellency Lord Bynig, on the representation that he must be given a chance to secéure a clear working majority. He stated at Richmond Hill that if such a majorîty was not forthcorning, he would not attempt to carry on. 2 In the old Parliament thus dissolved there had been 234 members, 0f whom 117 were Liberals, 66 were Progressives or Independents and 51 were Con- servatives. 3In the new Parliament, elected in October, 1925, Mr. Meighen had by far the largest group-almost haif the total membership of the House. Out of 245 seats the Conservatives had 116, the Liberals 101, the Progressives 24, Labour 2, and Independents 2. 4 Instead of immediately resigning, as he should have donc in view of the ground upon which he had been granted dissolution, Mr. King asked for and was granted leave to carry on, on the assurance that he would leave the fate of his administration to Parliament itself. 5On Fr iday, june 25th, three separate motions by so- called independents, in support of which Mr. King's Government marshalled its last ounce of strength, were decisively defeated and the original motion of censure, to which the foregoing had been moved in amendment, was stili awaiting decision in Parlian-ent wvrien .vir. King asked His Excellency for dissolution on Monday, june 28th. 6 To have granted Mr. King a dissolution under such circumstances would have been a direct denial of the right 0f Parliament to pass upon the vote of censure then pending. 7 Following Mr. King's resignation, Parliament by a majority of 10 did actually adopt a direct vote of censure on the King Government, and declared it unworthy of confidence or office. 8 It was Mr. King's refusai to follow British precedent in co-operating with the incoming administration to pass supplies and complete the sessional programme that left Mr. Meighen no alternative but to ask for dissolution. 9 Mr. Meighen followed the same course as that adopted by Sir Wilfrid Laurier inf 1911, when he saw that it was impossible to carry on and abruptly dissolved Parliament. i0 If Ris Excellency had recalled Mr. King to office, he would have donc so in the very face of Parliament's vote of censure. Under Mr. King's interpretation of the constitution a Premier need neyer resign, but could demand dis- solution after dissolution, despite the verdict of Parliament or the electorate, and the Governor General must perforce accept his advice. This is the story. It calis for no comnment-it speaks for itself!1 The Conservative Party stands solid as a rock for sound British constitutional practice, the maintenance of the British connection, and the right of Canada to enjoy the blessings of stable Government.
