LONDON, January 19. The x ßight Hon.- A. J. Balfour, at a "great Unionist demonstration: at Glasgow, , admitted -the,- difficulty of the problems ahead, but said the dangers of fiscal reform L were" far less" than' those associated with social -reform. - R>th reforms were difficult, ; j but necessary.
