.<HE woman who has a budget

in detail-soon finds out where
the leaks are in the dixie walls of
her frugality. DR.. Alonzo Taylor
has recently said that cereals were
the only solution for the high cost
Of living. Not only are they cheap
and satisfying and wholesome in
themselves, but if we used them
more, and for q while did not buy
the more expensive foods, these

should rice, hominy and macaroni be
used as vegetables when potatoes are
between seasons" and are as high
as eight cents pound and poor at
that.
But when a food goes up it seems
to whet the average Americans ap-

folks are SO constituted that they
lose their desire for thing that

MILLION MINERS
PUBLIC BACKS THE BRITISH
CABINET IN CRUCIAL
BATTLE.
INDUSTRIES ARE AFFECTED
Railroad and Transport Workers
Hold sslance Of Power-WlnstOn
Churchill Sees 5o;shevlk
Action.

London.-A million miners went on
strike, cutting off the national fuel
supply and threatening the country
with industrial paralysis.
Speaking Tor the government, Pre-
mier Lloyd George immed ately &C.
copied the challenge through an Of.
fetal statement in which he placed all
responsibility upon the miners and
urged the pc ople to cooperate in de-
ftating the strike.
The strike began when the after
noon shift failed to report in Noting
hamshire ana Durham. TIE miners,
eager to initiate their test of strength
with the government started pouring
out of the pits like ants from hill.
Shortly after noon it was estimated
that practically every miner in the
United Kingdom had quit work.
Only the engineering and mainte-
nance STATS remailed. These were
to prevent flooding of miles or de-
terioraticp of the machinery.
The effect on industry was instan-
taneous. Despite the fact that there
was sufficient fuel in reserve to last
few days, iron and steel mills in
the Yorkshire district closed volun-
tarily. 1t was estimated that in the
Tee-Side district more than ten thou
sand metal workers were idle.
An embargo on coal exports was in
effect. This also applies to bunker
coal for foreign vessels and only
coastwise vessels were receiving their
quota. 1t was planned to have trans
Atlantic steamers carry sufficient fuel
for one-way trip, reeoaling on the
other side.
Individuals and corporations began
practicing economy, in accordance
with plans outlined by the govern
ment. Shipment of non-essential
freight was banned. Passenger traf-
fic was not expected to be seriously
affected for a few days.
In his statement Lloyd George re.
cited the progress of negotiations be-
tween the miners and owners with the
part played by the government His
statement was supplemented by a
speech in Dundee by Winston Church.
HI. who severely arraigned the miners
for insisting on a flat wage increase
of so cents a day, instead of scale
based on increased production, as pro.
posed by the government.
The railway men and transport
workers, with which the miners form
the triple alliance, are bound by a
treaty" to aid each other in just
such circumstances as have now
arisen.
They form THAT is probably the
most powerful organized labor body
In the I'D. If the should decide
to actin concert they could halt prac.
tically every industrial wheen in Great
Britain.
The government holds to the belief
that the triple alliance will act only
as last resort, as the leaders real
lie the seriousness of such strike.
