Christiania, Sept. 7. The
newspaper Tidens Tegn, in an edi
torial article on the political sit
uation published August 4, ex
plains the alliance between the
Norwegian cabinet and the So
cialist party as follows:
"The Cabinet, whose party
had been reduced to 37 of the
150 members of the Storthing,
or parliament, asked for and
4 received the support of the So
cialists and the youg Communis
Itic party, whose parliamentary
entrance was marked by the
failure of the general strike.
This party, therefore,' was, in
need of an arbitration law so as
not to overtax its promises to the
laborers, and it was on this plat
form that the " Communists and
the special cabinet party came to
gether. They cooperated satis
factorily from the beginning on
questions of finance and taxa
tion. The strongest connecting
link was the prohibition policy."
