Churches, Trade Unions and Emplo^^ers' Federations, Professional organiza- tions [e. G. , of doctors or teachers), philanthropic or semi-philanthropic societies [e. G. , the Anti-Slavery and Aborigines Protection Society) — countless or- ganizations of every kind and size are always on the watch, ready to step in with a timely request or warning where their interests are likel}^ to be Parliament and People 55 affected. There is also the flood of dail}/ papers and other publications, recording a...nd criticising the actions of government from day to day, always eager to voice a complaint or proclaim a grievance.

At first perhaps they are able to affect only the details of legislation — though the line " between detail and principle is often hard to draw — but as the influence of the mandate weakens their power increases, and a government which has little policy or programme, or which has exhausted its programme, often seems to be doing nothing but laboriously attempt- ing to conciliate by small concessions the urgent importunities of conflicting interests.
