"What answer could be made "No one in his senses imagines the Conservative Party could or should make any advances," says the Sunday Times. "The majority of the candtâ€" dates on both sides are alroady chosen; few of them would be willing to retire. They aro already busy vilifying one another‘s policies in the constituencies; are they at a glven signal to desist, withdraw their acâ€" cusations, and shake hands as though they hmd always been in agreement? The clectorate would be very quick, paipable ‘a fra1d." "The revived â€"strength of the Libâ€" eral Party ensures the country against a Socialist majority in Parliament based upon a minority in the country; Just as it ensures the country against a continuance of minority governâ€" ment by the Conservatives, who were in a minority of votes even in 1924. In short, the Liberal Party is the main safeguard against minority governâ€" ment." "Some Conservratives seem to fear that the alectoral gamble may give a Parliamentary majority to the Soctalâ€" Ists, who are certainly in a minority In the country. They could have made this impossible by a reasonâ€" able measure of electoral retorm, while they had the power. They threw away this opportunity. . Perhaps they will be wiser next time.

The Liberal Party would commit suicide if it contemplated any such arrangement, as certatal, as if it were to make a similar arrangeâ€" ment with the Labor Party,. _ Exen it the party leaders were to agree (and there is no suggestion that any of them would do so), the rank and file them would do so), the rank would not follow them. "Bravado and despair alike forget that, although the Liberal leaders may, with some difficulty, agree upon a distinct Liberal policy, 1t is by no means certain that its appeal will inâ€" duce the mass of Liberal voters to vote for Liberal candidates. It is still conceivable, at all events, that the experience of the last election, when large numbers of Lberals reâ€" fused to waste their votes on forâ€" lorn chances, will be repeated; and it is at least premature to ask the Conâ€" servative Party to settle its strategy hefore the publication of the full deâ€" tails of its program. ‘ "The mistaken assumption of the advocates of truculence is that the Liberal vote is not worth considering; | but at least equally mistaken is the assumption of the advocates of comâ€" pron.ise that all Liberals are mbre horrified at Secialism than at Conserâ€" vatism. The truth is that the Liberat Part is very sharply divided into a Right and Loft wing, and that, alâ€" though the former is lable to swoop towards â€" Conservatism, the latter. 14 "Yet both these extreme counsels seem to be based on very questionâ€" able assumptions. It is really not necessary for them to accept as inâ€" evitable either complete victory or utâ€" ter defeat; nor to ask the Liberal Party, because it has upset the tradiâ€" tlonal twoâ€"party system, either to comâ€" mit sutcide or to become the dictator of national policy. "One school of thought urges them to be uncompromisingly truculent; the other beseeches them to seek alâ€" e# @imost at any cost.
