One session will be quite enough for all practical purpose. if handled with • view to prompt dispatch of business. Premien have gone to England be- fore and Po.liautents have Fot along fairly well without thew. There is no reason to helieve that Premier Bor- den's absence would be particularly felt, so long as he has capable lieuten- ants like Sir George Foster, Sir Thomas White and Hon. Robert Roger' to lead the House while be ie. overeeee. Sir George Foster has reached a mellowness of age and philo- sophy which make hint an ideal locum tenens. He nares not -if we are to judge by hisundertonee-foratnbition, for politica, for party, fur anything, in -fact. save his page in history. This wakes hint a safe substitute, safer than he was in Premier Howell's time. Of course, with Sir Thomas White or the Honorable Robot Rogers, It's different. With either of them tate House would probably see more action and less philosophy. Members of Parliament are recalling the fact that Premier Borden bas not always considered his presence • site qua neo when a crisis was simmering. In the course of it.. six years in office the Borden Government has seen a certain amount of crisising, but Pre- mier Borden has not always stood on the burning deck like Cusbi}nca or with similar r±sulta. On the contrary, the Premier bag had • babit of.letting the crisis, rage itself out and then •p peering on the scene when the trouble was aver. A bad cold has often been enough to keep Premier Borden away from a crisis. But his favorite ail- ment, in case of a crisis, is the one that afflicted Job. It was this pecu- liarity of Sir Robert's that led Fred Pardee to remark that "whenever Premier Borden got into hot water he came to a boil." Fred, as you will observe, is a muter of condensed criti- cise. Nobody expects Premier Borden to develop boils in order to get away to the Imperial Conference in London. He is at liberty W go when he pleases and he can leave the House in good bands with the full assurance that it will be there, if necessary, when he comes hack. It transpires, moreover, that the Imperial Conference is au open date and that, though February wag mentioned, it might be postponed. This leads the guessers to ask whore pleasure or what events the Iwpetial Conference is waiting on.

At. all events, k won't guarantee that Hughes job will be there when 'be conies back, and Premier Hughes doesn't seem disposed to go away and leave it hanging on the line. The Imperial Conference, it is under- stood, was rather building on Premier Hughes' pr•eeeoal. but it expected him to reappear ins ndon as the conquer- ing tero onquering'bero he wax last time. not as the busted phenomenon that Australia has made of him within the last few months. When Prettier Hughes was In London but he gave Downtng9rleet to understand that he swung Australia by the tail, and Downing Street is naturally surprised that he didn't do it. Why. Downing Street naturally arks, didn't Australia pass conscrip- tion wben the plebiscite gave her a chance ? And Australia more British than Great Britain? Premier Hughes must have muffed it saute way. It is worth noting that glome Premier Hughes, fell down on hie •conscription plans the.example of Australia ie not quoted nearly as much as it wee either here or in London. if the Imperial Conference 'is not waiting on Premier Hughes, whom' 1a it waiting on 7 G(Nwip suggests that it may be Prentice Horden.

The precedents are egainst bringing back menages, Mr. J. W. Elevens. heving failed recently to put one over regarding National Government, with himself as the Government, t.ecause sotnebody had been busy with the fire extingui•'her before he reached the apgt. This leads the good guessers to believe that Premier Borden will do whet he has to do before he goes to England. if he approaches the War Cabinet at all it. will be as one bringing gifts. According to sotne commentatore the Militia Act is cot definite enough. It mettles the Government of the day to cobscribe all dense from eighteen to sixty-five and to place them as it will, within or without the bounds of the country, "in defence of ()Amide." lint it does not say explicitly that they can he sent overseas. The chances are that the Militia Act didn't intend that Canadian soldiers he sent overseas, as it was drawn with the special view of protecting Canada, from Invasion by the United Rtates, hut the delete in ambiguous. All the Government need do to to emend the clans* or add another to make the Militia Act • complete, up-to-date cnn- ecription measure by which (;anadlans can ars sent anywhere in the world in defence of the British Empire. of which we are an integral part.
