of the two millions which Sir Charles; has now agreed to accept.About one million collars, it ls stated, have heen reaiized hy the Government on the male of rifles, ma-; chinery, raw materiale, ete, taken] over and a fully equipped plant now;

Asquith'a return to the House of Commons would find a welcome amongst well nigh every section, particularly by those Liberals who are still persuaded that the expediences of the moment require the maintenance of the Coalition Government.Considering his eminence it is remarkable that Mr.Asquith has had to remain so long outside.When Ralfour, for instance, was defeated at Manchester, a perfectly safe seat was found him almost at once in the That such a course was not adopted in Mr.Asquith's case can only be ascribed to independent Liberalism possessing just now so few seats deemed absolutely secure, Mr.Asquith's selection last night for Paisley, however, only became the unanimous choice of the local caucus after some hesitation.caucus had also before them the name of J.C.Watson, advocate, of The Edinburgh, and a native of Paisley, Asquith secured a majority of 18 on the first vote and the second vote gave him an unanimous adoption.As already cabled, Mr.Asquith will not be officially opposed by Coalition Headquarters in London, bul focal unionists are suspected of being strongly eager to bring out a candidate, J.M.Biggar, Co-operative and Labor candidate, has already opened his campaign, placing in the forefront of his programme a levy on capital.Although some Bocialists vppose his candidature, he is certain of an almost wolld labor vote.Paisley has great Liberal tradl-

charges that had been made against Jules Bteeg, the Minister of the Interior, by Deputy Leon Daudet in the course of the discussion.They argued that it would be better to vote on (he question of

Followed Long and Rapid Bolshevik Offensive REORGANIZATION EASIER Is Nearer Their Base and Resources Than the Advancing Enemy London, January 22\u2014(By The Associated Press).\u2014 The position of General Denikine, anti-Bolshevist leader in Southern Russia, to all ap- bearances, is somewhat better, according to the War Office summary of the situation.The inevitable pause has occurred which must follow any long and rapid oftensive such as has been conducted by the Bolsheviki in Scuth Russia.The further course of the operations will probably favor the side able to make the best use of the time at its disposal for reorganizafion.This naturally will be easter for General Denikine, who is nearer his buse and resources thun the Boisheviki who have gune deep into enemy country and depend for sup- piles and equipment on partially de- stroycd railways.Much depends upon the support afforded Denikine sy the population in the rear.Latest reports seem to indicate that he still commands their full confidence and loyalty, However, his losses of material in the recent retreat are bound to have a grave effect on future operations Meanwhile the River Don is so swollen by heavy rains as to render lt difficult of passage and the Don and Caucasus armies have thus sained a valuable respite, which will be used fully In reforming and raising further reinforcements that should shortly be available to replace the casualties of.retreat.Moreover the imminent danger to their country has caused both the Don and Kuban Cossacks to rally » holeheartedly around the Governnt and afford full support © Denikine.The Bolshevik advance in Siberia appears to have slowed down.The Allled High Commissioner has received a message from aamiral Kolchak at Nijni-Udinsk, stating that he is remaining there with the Ministers of his suite, whose fate he intends to share.In West Russia, the Letts, since the opening of their offensive on January tn, have retaken a stretch of thelr own country about forty miles in depth and captured 13,000 prisoners and considerable material.Bixty miles of Lettish territory still remains In the Bolsheviki hands.The Houlshevikl have concentrated strong forces of troops sor the defence of the important junction of Lieishites and are also cuunter-at- tacking the Lettish left along the Pdkov railway, where they have been repuleed with heavy losses.The lteds have not succeeded in checking the Lettish advance in the centre.\u2018The tension between the Poles and Lithuanians continues, but only small armed encounters between partisan bodies have occurred.In the Caucasus the Bolshevik! advance down the western shore of the Cas: pian appears to threaten Petrovek, the Lise of the volunteer fleet.In Trans-Caspian the Lolshevikl have nut yet captured

Press)\u2014Hon.N.W.Roweti speaking tonight before the McGill University Club, gave an emphatic reply to the objections of certain United States Senators to representation of Canada and other British Dominions on the League of Nations.He pointed out that Canada had won & position as practically an independent nation although still part of the commonwealth of nations that made up the British Empire.Hence Canada was as free as any other nation to voice its views at the Council of the League of Nations and would even disagree with Great Britain if such a course ssemed proper to her.Mr.Rowell concluded his address by saying: \u201cNo nation wiil finally put itself on record as denying to Canada the right to & voice in the preservation of the peace which her soldiers did so much to win while such nation claims a vote for other nations of much less intrinsic importance which may have done little or Mr.Rowell was accompanied by Dean Moyse of McGill.AMERICAN AND RUSSIAN
