Fowl lice and mites reduce egg pro-

the quality of flesh Of all classes of
poultry. Mites are particularly bad
among farm fowl, as these blood-suck-
ing insects often gain a firm foothold
in the flock before the farmer is aware

irritable and decline in egg production
and healthy condition as a result OF
losing blood to the mites. In heavily
infested coops it is not unusual for
the chickens to become droopy and
weak, with pale combs and wattles.
The mites feed almost entirely at
night, except that they attack hens on

LONDON, Dec. 26-The industrial
atmosphere is highly uncongenial for
Christmas jollity. The unemployment
that is already so severe is certain to
spread as current contracts are full
MED, and the temper of the working
class is not likely to submit to idle
ress as patiently as before the war.
The subject of unemployment was
debated Tuesday in the House of Com
! mons, when. the government brought
forth measures to provide relief. in
cluding road and house building and
other steps to be taken by munich
palitles to provide a means of liveli-
hood for those out of work The labor
leaders criticized the governments pro-
posals as mere palliatives which would
give nothing more than temporary re-
lief.
They demanded an organization to
prevent unemployment, rather than
makeshift measures TO reduce it. They
insisted on the necessity of establish
ine peace in Europe, opening trade with
Russia and granting credits to impov-
erished countries
World Trade Disordered
Lloyd George tried to comfort the
House with the statement that unem-
ployment in Great Britain was not
nearly as bad as it was before the war
and that conditions were much worse
in other countries. He admitted the
need Of peace, but he said that it was
c<ming gradually. He indicated that
credit schemes were being considered
by the Board of Trade in consultation
with business experts.
The sale Of British wool stocks to the
former enemy countries also is being
considered.
1t is therefore increasingly sdmitted
that the whole worlds economic ma
chincry was disarranged by the wars
New-York tribune., 1920-12-27

"lght nave very farreaching effect.
1he coal output is still good and the
local strike that is in effect in Wales
probably will be settled soon. So far
the governments compromise arrange
ment' whereby the miners wages vary
with the amount of coal they dig, has
had an excellent effect.
big engineering contract for the
repair of the Rumanian state RAILWAYS
has just been concluded by French and
British firms. This is an obviously
good line for the Improvement of con-
dltlons in Europe and the lessening
of unemployment.
The Anglo Russian trade agreement
IS still unsettled and great difFicu ties
are presented by court decision given
asst week This decision shows that
the present Russian government. mas
much as it has not been recognized BY
the British government, has no title
under English law to goods that it
takes and sells if the former owner
wants to claim them
The failure of the Farrow bank t.
unfortunate at this time, but its COL
lapse had no connection with recent
events. In fact, that failure was the
result of a long standing weakness in
the banks affairs and these are now
being made the subject of a legal in
vestigation.
Liquidation of commodities and Sc
curlties continues, but the true stock
market is slightly better and it is re-
ported that more weak spots have
been cleaned up. Optimists think that
the worst has been seen, but the pres
ent depression is too acute to be cured
quickly and the industrial situation
is very difficult because Of the high
cost of production and slack demand
Commodities, even, are at low prices.
Altogether, the outlook is gloomy
but we are beginning to see what is
amiss. When we see we generally
manage to get things right.

Economic Disorder of Entire World

Activity as Producers and Consumers

| destruction and that a real return to
full prosperity is possible only through
the restoration of the vanquished ma
ticns and their stimulation into activ-
ity IS producers and consumers
The problem Of granting credits is
very difficult, owing to the fear of fur
tier imitation. The best way of doing
1t is through an appeal to investors to
put real savings at the disposal of
credit corporations, as prosposed on
your side Of the ocean, but investors
here are very shy, because of the
threats Of a levy on capital and because
of the uncompromising attitude of
labor.
This attitude, however, has been con-
slderably modified of late, and unem-
psoyment is teaching the lesson that
labor should not press its claims too
far when the economic situation is diff
6cult
The government is negotiating with
the building trades unions to permit the
employment Of ex-service men in con-
struction. 1t is expected that the ne
gotiations will be successful, as public
opinion is naturally strong in favor
of the men unemployed because many
of them were the soldiers who fought
the countrys battles in France.
Sounder Basis Needed
The whole question of unemployment
wants putting on q sounder basis. 1t is
recognized that 1t Is unfair for men
who want to work and have no resources
behind them to suffer severe hardship
owing to trade fluctuations that are be-
yond their control A big employer of
labor suggested Tuesday in the House
Of Commons that employers should or
ganize a system in each industry to take
care Of its own unemployed, thus en-
abling the workers to put their full
efforts on their job without fear of
discharge and destitution when hard
times come.
