CABINET BARELY WINS POINT LONDON, March '1?. It was well past 1 o'clock this morning when tha House of Commons adjourned after n protracted debate, nominally on rmy estimate, but really covering a vide range of topics. There were many heated passages regarding the problem of calling out n arried men. Sir John A. Simon, cx-secretary for home affairs, among others, appeared as the champion of the married men, but his speech met with sharp criticism from other champions of the married men owing tt. his argument that there was dan ger of orer-recrultlng. It waa announced in the lobby of the House of Commons that a Conference win be held Raturdsy at the war office hetwren the hlsjher military authorities end the recruiting; commanders when the whole requirements of the army for man will be fully discussed and explained. It la stated that the widespread aaita tlon on the part of the married men has alresdy Interfered somewhat with the war office arrangements, but there la little dovrtit that thee ailing- up of fur ther groups of married men has been only briefly postponed. May Raise Age Umlt. Among the proposals now being con sidered Is that of extending the military nice of single men to 46 years. There Is also a widespread feeling that the com pulsion act should be extended to the married men. as a considerable part of the HI feeling among married men now being called Is due to the fsct that those who voluntarily enrolled under the Derby scheme must go Into the army, while married men, who declined the lnrttatlon to enroll, are allowed to continue In their civil occupations. The real seriousness of feeling through out the country on this matter was re flected In the House of Commons, where members showed the state of their minds on the vote for adjournment. The gov ernment demanded adjournment until Tuesday, but partisans of ths married men urged a continuation of the session until the question of the married men was properly settled. Cablaet Has Close Call. The government got Its wish, but only after a division which was carried by six votes. This is the most serious division the coalition government has yet faced. Special meetings of the liberal and un. innlat 'War committees," which will con stitute the backbone of any organised opposition to the present government, have been summoned for next Tuesdsy.
