ENGLISH POOR DESPERATE

Enormous Crowds March to Munich
pal Offices, Where Premier. Balfour
Makes a Speech Of Despair" to
Deputation Of 30-Starting Of In
dustries at National Expense De-
precated by Premier.
London, BY Cable-The desperate
condition Of the poor Of London was
brought to the notice of Premier Bal
four by a remarkable deputation of
the wives and other women relatives
Of the unemployed who did not hesi-
tate to tell the Premier that unless
something is speedily done to lessen
their sufferings there would be blood
shed.
''Don t forget that hungry men are
desperate men, said one of the
speakers, who al! had the same tale
to tell Of husbands out OF work and
starving wives and children. Enor-
nous crowds Of women from all parts
Of London marched through the
streets headed by dcputation which
Mr.. Balfour received at the Office of
the local government board. Only
thirty of the women were admitted to
the presentce of Mr.. Balfour. The
Premier was very sympathetic He
acknowledged that the evil was very
real, but he had little to suggest in
the way Of alienation except an ex-
preston Of hope that public charity
would come to the aid Of the unem-
ployed. He deprecated the socialistic
suggestion that industries should be
started at the national expense for
the benefit Of the unemployed as
calculated to destroy the springs Of
enterprise and energy of the nation.
At the close of Mr.. Balfour's
"speech of despair as the delegates
described it, Mrs. Crooks, wife of
Williams Crooks, Labor party men,
ber Of the House of Commons, and
several other women excitedly unvit-
ed Mr.. Balfour to come and live
among them for a few months. The
Premier remarked that he was quite
aware that nothing he had said could
be other than disappointing. They
had his genuine sympathy and he felt
most acutely the magnitude Of the
evil frcm which they were suffer
ing.
A mass meeting Of the women was
held lates to hear the report oil the
delegation. Mr.. Crooks, M. T., SAID
that Mr.. Ealfour's reply to the dele
cation was unworthy cf the Premier
Of great country. The mention Oh
Mr.. Balfour's name was greeted with
a storm Of Kisses.
