British Plan
Transatlantic
Flight i'm May
General Brancker, Retiring
Air Chief, Predicts Sue
cess of Trip Across Ocean

LONDON, Jan. 13.-General Brancker
who is giving up his post as master
general of personnel in the Air Min
istry to devote his time to commercial
aviation, in an interview in "The
Daily Express" to-day asserted that a
flight across the Atlantic probably
would be accomplished in May.
He added that the trip was feasible
at the, present moment as there were
three or four types Of airplanes avail
able which are capable OF making the
flight
General Brancker said the time was
not far distant when airplanes would
be owned and driven as automobiles
are to-day. He said it probably would
be necessary to establish an aerial po-
lice force, the duty of which would
be to watch over air routes and
frontiers.
British Building Airships
"The Evening News" to-day says that
it has been officially informed that the
British Admiralty is embarkng on a
big programme Of airship construction.
Airships are being built with gas
capacity Of 100000 cubic feet The
aircraft will have a large lifting ca
pacity and viii be able to make be-
tween sixty and seventy miles an hour.
They will carry crews of twenty-hve
men.
Still larger arships are projected,
and flights with passengers are pre-
dicted for the near future. Several
airships which viii be equal in size and
capacity to the largest Zeppelin, and
which are of a similar rigid type, are
being built.
Primarily they are being constructs /
for sea work and general observation
duty for the navy. These airships, it
is said, will be capable of remaining in
the air for a week.
The newspaper says regular air
ship mail service between England and
the United States during the summer
of 1920, is regarded as certain by air
ship builders.

Workers in hotels, cafes, dairies
bakeries gas houses. water-works
artificial limb works, picture and
theatre operators. policemen, fire

Canada has sent the following mes.
sages to Premier Borden:
I'VE wish to bring to your notice
that at the Peace Conference, which
you attended, it was decided that la
Dor must be recognized, also collec-
tive bargaining. Iniasmuch as this
is fact, why is common labor forced
to obtain what we understand was
internationally recognized?
The government, on the other hand
has adopted a policy in relation to
the strike which insists on the main
tenance of law and order and the
protection of life and property, and
that employees in the civil service
shall not join in strikes. St also is
part of the Governments policy to
use its best efforts to establish
boards of Cancellation wherever pos
sible.
1t is considered possible that the
strike may spread to Ottawa and
Montreal. In Vancouver the Trades

and Labor Council has formulated
seven demands to be presented to
the Government at Ottawa and, il
these demands are not yielded to, the
Council says, the Government will
have to resign and force a general
election. The seven points include
the demands of the Winnipeg strik-
ers, an additional demand that SOL
diers get minimum grant of $1,000
for overseas service, insistence on
the national control of food short
age, and demand for a six hour day.
Since Vancouver takes the lead in
labor propaganda in Canada it is
thought that these seven points may
be adopted as the uniform pro-
gramme for the strikers all over
Canada.
The present general unrest in Cam
ada may be traced to a dissatisfac-
ton with the Government on the
part of labor circles. During the
war repressive measures were rigid
ly enforced, measures far more strin-

Watching and aitins

Watchfully we all are wait
ing; how will things come out
at last? Will the Germans quit
their hating and live down their
ugly past? Will they see that
hates an error, will they fully
realize that to rule the world
by terror isn't possible or wise?
Will the German love his neigh
Dor in the golden days of peace,
or be anxious to belabor t'other
fellow with a creese? Oh, I do
not trust the German, though he
act like Sunny Jim, though he
hand me out sermon or put up
pious hymn he is great at
talking virtue, he has morals by
the stack; but he'll take a club
and hurt you if you chance to
turn your back. I'm afraid the
Germans hating with more pas
sion than before; while he
cringes he is waiting for another
whirl of gore. Now he is of
humble seeming, speaking in re-
morseful tones; but l fear he's
always dreaming of more
corpses and more bones. He is
ready with his pledges, he will
spring them with will but the
German always hedges when he
comes to pay the bill. "Iu be
true and good" he belches, "I1l
be pure, already yet" but the
German always welches when
it's time to pay bet. Oh, l

virtue won't grow faint; but |

was demonstrated last night at a
meeting of the Brightwood Citizens
Association. Resolutions were unani-
mously adopted protesting against
such increase in fares.
The resolutions set forth that under
the plan proposed by the company it
would be possible to collect eleven
cents. including one cent for trans
fer from Brightwood to 11th and
streets northwest, the proposed hub
of the wheel. The protests are also
founded on the fact that the resi-
dents in that vicinity have purchased
their homes, buying them in good
faith. relying on the contract OF the
company which had been made with
the people to charge J-cent fare
with free transfer privilege The ad-
ditional zone fare, the resolutions
