A NATIONAL PARTY
NEW MOVEMENT IN BRITAIN ITS AIMS OUTLINED By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright (Rec. December 2, 10.50" p.m.) London, December 2. The "Daily News" states that Lord Beresford presided at a meeting of Unionists, held with the object of founding a National Party, under Sir Edward Carson's leadership. A number of members of both sides of the House of Comons have been approached. The newspaper hints that Sir Henry Dalziel and Sir A. B. Markliam approve the movement. The "Morning Post," which has been advocating a National Party, publishes Sir A. B. Markliam's letter in favour of such a party, whose policy includes closer political union, a. Zollverein embracing the Empire and the Allies, and a vigorous social reform policy. He declares that Britain cannot revert to the old fiscal feuds in the face of the wonderful faith of the Australians, New Zealandors, and Canadians in the land of their forefathers, and their heroism in the battlefields.
