IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT
STERN REALITIES TO DISCUSS London, February 2. The "Times," in a leader referring to the reassembling of Parliament, says: '"The business to be transacted will be of the most momentous character known in the history of the country, and tho supervision should be correspondingly strict. The House of Commons will have the sternest of realities to discuss, and it is expected to discuss them with judgment and discretion, without fear or favour or partiality."— ("Times" aud Sydney "Sun," Services.)
NO CONTENTIOUS BUSINESS. London, February 2. The Prime Minister (Mr. Asquith) speaking in the House of Commons cordially welcomed the Opposition's criticisms and co-operation.

The Marquis of Crewe, in the House of Lords, said the- Government did not intend to produce contentious business, but would confine itself to the prosecution of the war.
