LONDON, Nov. 3.-Winston Church
Ills transfer from the post of home
secretary to that Il the first lord Of
the admiralty is technically a step
backward, but is not to be so re-
gaEded.
The former office. it is true, is con-
sidered next in Importance to the
premiership and has a salary of $500
against only s22,5o0 at the admiralty.
But 1t has always been C~hurchilps am
bition to get control of a great spend
ing department. and he goes to the
admiralty determined to curb its ex-
travagance without reducing the eff
1ciency of the navy. But he has also
a much loftier purpose in view.
Churchill believes hat when Ger
many's new naval program is being
discussed an opportunity will arise for
coming to an agreement on the limita-
ton of navies and so ending this In
sane contest between the powers for
supremacy on the seas. He Is at once
bold n resourceful. and intensely
ambitious to do something big toward
promoting international peace.

5000 TAXI DRIVERS IN
LONDON QUIT MACHINES.

LONDON, Nov. 3.-London was prac-
tically without a taxicab service yester-
day, 5000 ~chauffeurs having quit work
to attend a meeting called for the pur-
pose of determining whether a strike
should be called.
The immediate cause of the break
between the cab companies and their
employees was the deduction by an
owner of six cents from the wages Of
a driver. Trouble, however, has been
brewing for some time over the ques-
ton of extra charges alle sed to have
been collected by the men and not
turned in to the companies.
The cab companies claim that the
chauffeurs have robbed them of
81, 500, 900 annually through a failure to
register extras collected for adj
ditional passengers and baggage.
The chauffeurs decided not to return
to work until they had been ordered to
do so by the executive of their union.
