There is in England fight for
control more important and bitter
than the fight between junkers and
Social Democrats in Germany.
England's workingmen, allied with
the Socialist party, are fighting for
control against the rest of the ma
tion, middle class and upper class.
Winston Churchill, descendant Of
an American stockbroker and of
Marlborough, the English fighter,
calls the Socialist party "the most
dark, formidable menace with
which British civilization is con-
fronted." What he says is not i'm
portant. He was brought up to ex-
aggerate the value of his ideas.
But even Lloyd George, who has
handled every problem from the
British Tory TO the German Kai-
ser, now finds British labor in poll
tics too much for him and advises
coalition Of Liberals and Unionists
against labor radicalism. 1t is a
fight as important as the clash be-
tween privilege and misery in the
French Revolution. II is more
peaceful at present, but may not
remain so.

ms and Revell is being tried under a.
