shortage by instituting free traffic in

corn TO be retained by the govern

The result came as n thundcrbolt

100000 CHILD
SLAVES IN ENGLAND

LONDON, Nov. is.-The appalling
scandal OF childslavery in GresI
Britain, as unearthed by the National
News, which has continued it's inveF-
tigation, reveals that 1.soo. 900 British
children under sixteen years old are
employed in and exploited by indus-
try. Thousands of these child vic
Tins, who are stunted in body and
mind and whose future is hopelessly
handicapped. are but seven or eight
years old and work for fifty hours a
week for less than one dollar.
Employment of children is preva-
lent not only in the North OF England.
according to the National News. but is
general to the whole country. In Bir-
mingham, for instance. there are 1900
child wage victims: In Kont, where
the beer hops grow. there are several
thousands. During. 1917 there were
$4,000 children employed at night in
munitions shops.
The National News maintains that
the chfldren's work is Unnecessary.
that the monetary gain is far more
than Offset by the evil effects Of child
labor, and that the practice Of en-
ploying child labor in dangerous and
unnecessary tasks is widely preva-
lent and a national disgrace.
vention of Cruelty to Children points
out that the new education acts for
bid employment of any child under
twelve years old. the various local au-
thorities having power to set condi-
lions fixing employment of children
between twelve and fourteen years
Old.
e. As a striking commentary on the
situation IL should be pointed out that
Lcrd Rothermore, brother of Lord
Northcliffe and publisher Of the Sun
day Pictorial. with 5000, 900 circuls-
tion, has taken up the cry for repeal
OF the education act for financial res
sons. He thinks the nation cant
afford IL.
II lay the chief blame on the pa
rents of these child slaves" says Mu-
riel. Eiscountess Helmsley. The
state of affairs is scandalous. II Is
terrible that parents should be so
apathetic."

ALBERT'SCABINET
RESIGNS IN A BODY

BRUSSELS, Nov. 1S.-Belgium is
the latest nation to have cabinet
crisis. All members OF the ministry
have rendered their designations.
They will continue in office. however,
at the special request of King AL
bert, until the results OF Sundays
election are known.
Although definite results of the
parliamentary elections of Sunday
probably will not be known before
Wednesday, the Socialists claim a
gain of twenty-five seats, mostly from
the Catholic party, which, apparently,
is losing ground everywhere. The
Liberals are losing less than was eX-
pected.
1t is believed that the new Cham
ber OF Deputies, in which no party
Will have an absolute majority, will
consist OF from so to IS members of
the Catholic party, co TO 65 Socialists,
80 TO 40 Liberals, and : to 10 mem
bers elected from the smaller poIiti-
cal groups. The last chamber, elected
in 1898, consisted OF 1O1 Catholics,
3S Liberals, 80 Social Democrats and
Christian Socialists.
The greatest Socialist gains were
in the large cities. Antwerp account
Ing for nve seats and Liege and Char
leroi for two each.
The Socialists also made gains in
the hitherto impregnable Flemish
country districts.

URGE CONTINUANCE
OF PRICE FIXING

BERLIN. Nov. 1s.-Considerable
at this time as to continuance of
government rationing and compulsory
price-fixing on necessities.
The government takes the position
that this compulsory system must be
continued, partially at least, lest the
nation suffer under vastly increased
prices. And workmen are beginning
to realize that the government sys-
tenn Is probably the most advan-
tagsous that they could have for the
time being. -
The government removed the COM
pulsory price-fxing in some cases,
and found that prices promptly
mounted. In view of this fact, Eco
noriIc Minister Schmidt has taken a
stand against further relaxation of
the compulsion until such time as
conditions in the markets assure that
the populace will be able to buy more
cheaply than at present.
In some cases, quite independent OF
the lowered price made by the gov
ernment through its 1900 900, 900
marks appropriation for reducing Iiv-
ing costs. it has been found that the
necessities of life were at once
boosted by merchants wF"- the gov
eminent took its hands OF.
In view OF the labor situation, with
its constant demands for higher
wages or lower food prices. the gov
ernment now holds that it would be
fatal to remove all restrictions
Some Of the price increases conse-
quenl upon removal of restrictions
are quite eNplainable: others are the
result OF mOney-grabbing spirit In
the frst instance, the wholesaler cam
not buy in the foreign markets as
adNantageouesly as the government
since the latter gets low prices be-
cause of unusually large purchases.
And wherever foreign products come
into competition with the domestic
products the prices of the former
are necessarily higher because of the
extremely unfavorabIe position of the
German rate Of exchange.
An example of the effect OF re-
moval OF fixed prices is at hand in
the shoe market. Since the govern
ment stopped its rationing of shoes
at stable price. the increase has
been from 200 To 300 per cent.
While the government still mixes
INTO questions Of food prices. il has
just extended its paternalism to the
matter Of housing. With Berlin over
crowded. and an apartment or hotel
room scarcely to be had at any
price, the authorities decreed that
large dwellings capable Of housing
more than one family should imrne-
diately undertake to shelter other
families.
Hotel rooms used for business Of
noes were ordered abandoned. and a
general search was instituted for All
possible corners where one or more
persons could be housed.
The government maintains that
only through its CON pulsory meas.
ures as 10 food and quarters can II
avoid a serious crisis.

SOCIALISTS SWEEP

ROME, Nov. 1S.-Incomplete re-
turns last night showed the Socialists
leading in the elections for the Cham

Socialist victory in those cities.

that Deputy Turati had been re-
