IJy the Associated Press
Millien, March 7. Sir Arthur Hal
four declared himself tedav a believer
In the benefits of the coalition.
"I am emphatically of the opinion
thet the country's interests were best
served by the coalition,-" he snld In
addressing the Carlten Club at its
lunrhcen in his honor. ,IIe would re re
mein a member of the Conservative and
Unionist Party, he added.
Tills was Sir Arthurs first public
appeal ance since the bestowal upon liinv
of the Order of the Garter. Sir Lam
ing Worthlngten-Evnns,, Secretary for
War, piesided.
Coincident with the speech of- Sir
Arthur it was stated tedav that Prime
Minister Llejd Geerge had deferred his
resignation without giving his colleagues
any pledge as te future action. The
declaration enme from the most reliable
sources of Information leaching the As
sociated Press today.
It is commonly .accepted that he will
retain leadership of the Government
until Irish legislation lias been com
pleted and pesslblv until nfter the
Genea conference. He Is credited with
an earnest desire te go te Genea nnd
will devote nil his tlme te preparations
for the trip during convalescence nt his
country home In Wales.
Nowhere has It been reliably sug
gested that his Illness is assumed for
diplcTiatic purposes nnd It is generally
agreed by his friends that he needs n
complete rest en account of nervous ex
haustion. Mr. Lloyd Geerge has held
cure -laden ministerial offices for sixteen
consecutive years, including the period
of his prime ministership.
He steed up during tlic most trying
years of the war nnd period of peace
settlement nnd his admirers declare
thnt any man of less hardy physique
would have collapsed long age. They
new hope thnt for n time, nt least, he
will he permitted te enjoy undisturbed

Governer llcidlemnn nnd State Treas
urer Snyder, both of whom hope te land
the Republican nomination.
"I am glad I nm net hampered bv

"I nm going te mnkc my fight along
clean, straight, constructive lines."
The Judge did net refer te Hcldlcmnn
or Snyder by name.
Judge Shull come te this city today
te confer with several Democratic lend
ers. He said he Is net perturbed ever
the Indersement by the Committee of

McSparran, of Lancnster County, for
the Democratic nomination for Gov Gov
ereor. "That meeting was cnlled' primarily
te boom Willlum II. Berry for Gover Gover
eor, but the proceedings get awnv from
these In chnrgc," he snld. "It was
what might he called n partisan gather
ing. The Indersement deesn.'t mean
nn thing seriously."
The Judge continued thnt he is neither
a Palmer man nor n Benniwcll man,
meaning that he Is neither n lieutenant
of A. Mitclull Palmer, formerly United
States Attorney General, nor of Judge
Benniwcll, of the Municipal Court.
"I am a Democrat and always went
nleng straight lines." he explnincd. "1
am n friend of Hennlwell nnd admire
him very much. I think Judge Bonni Benni
wcll hnB done mere te keep the party

Ills record in the campaign for Supreme
Court Justice shows he has n big fol
lowing." "As for Pennsylvania Republican
ism," the Judge went en, "thnt party
has nn old-time Democratic situation
en its hands."
"All sorts of new leaders have crop
ped up, but none of them Is able te
muster enough strength te dominate,"
he said. "I hear the candidates have
been told te go out nnd scratch for
themselves. But they must leek out or
their 'scratching' may cause sere sports
thnt won't heal In time for the big
event."
Judge Shull will nddress the League
