The overwhelming majority given in favor of the Government's policy nl the Cnienlst Party conference In Liverpool yesterday is looked upon as creating n better atmosphere for continuance of the pence negotiations in some form, al though the possibility of the resignation of Premier Lloyd Geerge, or. Indeed, the entire coalition government, is net ignored. The morning newspapers, how ever, de net regard this contingency as cither imminent or Inevitable.
