there is a strike"


"The cotton trade is shaken" he says, "and re-
ports from the woolen districts suggest that things
there may be even worse. Shipbuilding and en-
gineering are faced with gloomy outlook and the
prevailing uncertainty is reacting on most kinds of
business, down to that of the humblest retailer"
Making all due allowance for the desire of the
Times to warn the miners that this is not the
time to strike, the fact remains that the reports
of workers and of other agencies correspond with
the Times story.
British Capitalism came out of the war in pretty
good shape, but there must be reduction of prices
before the machinery can be got into it's old form
Wages must go down first the ruling class insists,
and there is the rub. How can the worker get on
with less while prices remain so high?
For the moment, the worker is taking the brunt
of the difficulty in the form of unemployment. 1t
remains to be seen how long he will be willing or
able to shoulder the load. 1t begins to look as
though the British Ship of State was anchored
with old cables close to some menacing rocks.

Just how serious the economic crisis is in
Great Britain, no one seems to know. That it is
of considerable proportions, and that the leaders
of public opinion regard it as grave matter seems
to be quite generally taken for granted.
Furthermore, this economic trouble at home
comes at an ill time for the imperialists, with the
unrest in Egypt South Africa and the Near East;
the open hostility to the Government manifested
in India, and the revolt in Ireland.
There has been since the war tendency for the
British workers and manufacturers alike to limit
production. The workers did it because they be-
lieved that was one way to stave off unemplOy-
ment The employers did it because they saw it
as the only likely means for the maintaining of
prices.
The consequence has been low scale of product
ivity in many of the leading industries, such as
mining and cotton and engineering Then, too, the
large umber of the strikers and the trade disputes
have had tendency to interfere with production,
even in the trades not directly effected.
Then came the spectre of unemployment, first
in the shipping centres, and later in the textile
centres-a spectre for the worker because it
leaves him to starve along with the meagre un-
employment allowance which everyone realizes is
insufficient; spectre for the Government, be-
cause great wave Of unemployment at home in
the critical juncture Of British imperial policy,
may wreck the whole elaborate ship of state.
Unemployment Increasing
AS the winter draws on, unemployment is in
reasng Men come together in little knots and tell
one another about it, or else they speak of it to
outsiders with very grave faces and in sober tones
with prices where they are, it will be near
impossible to get by, said one longshoreman,
work has been getting harder to find every day
for weeks past, and am beginning to wonder
what the missus and the two kddies are to do"

the title "Slackening Trade Uncertainty in the
Big Industries" Their correspondent, writing from

TUESDAYS GAME.

Rain probably saved the Southern
Shops from an even worse defeat
than they sustained Tuesday after
noon when the Chero Colas won over
them in a FIVE and half inning game
Tuesday afternoon, score to /.
Rain began falling in the last half
Of the sixth and the game was called.
Englebert was on the mound for
the Shoppers and pitched fairly good
ball until the fifth inning when he
blew up and teammates took the as
cension route with him. Blame for
the drubbing in this inning should
be about evenly divided between the
pitcher and the other members of the
team.
Englebert allowed four safeties, and
on two occasions it seemed that the
entire infield suffered from brain
storm, punching to handle bunts with
the result that they were not handled
at all, and meanwhile runners were
crossing the plate. Up to the fifth
inning Englebert had allowed only
two safeties and the game was going
good with the score | to 0 in favor of
the Chero Colas.
William Burris did the twirling for
the Chero Colas and was hit rather
freely, but managed to keep his OPP
ponents from punching safcties with
the result that only one tally was
made against him.
Battle Bell, the regular pitcher for
the Shops was unable to work on ac-
count of an injured finger. He was
in the lineup, however, playing left
field.
An old timer, Joe Wofford, who
used to play amateur ball here years
ago appeared in the Chero Cola line
up at short. He played with the
same pep and ginger that made him a
star in the old days. His first time at
bat he laidp down a beautiful bunt
down the third base line, sacrificing
man to second

DON'T GET EXCITED
FOR WE ARE ALL HERE

Under the caption, "Artesia Town
Now Moving to West Point which
appeared in The Columbus Dispatch,
the 23rd. instant, as clipping from
the West Point Daily Times-H Herald,
is set forth false and groundless re-
ports The article goes on to say,
ut is happening every day. The real
estate agents put in about half their
time these days hunting houses for
people to move here from Artesia."
The statement is not only untrue but
there is absolutely no grounds for
making such declaration. To West
Point who has designing and covetous
eyes on Artesia's railroad business is
hurled the challenge, "There has not
gone from Artesia one family to make
its home in West Point"
The Daily Times-H Herald goes into
ecstacies over a former Artesia yard
master who has come to sojourn
there, and in whose coming is seen
the town of Artesia moving thither
like a caravan across the plains. But
the fact is this, the new conner at
West Point is from Okolona who on
coming to Artesia a few days ago to
locate found every house occupied,
and, as last resort, took one of the
many vacant ones in West Point. So
The Times-H Herald is in error in say
ing that Artesia has come to West
Point; it is Oklona that has bundled
up and moved thither.
There is not an unoccupied house
in the town of Artesia. This is true
of the business section as well as Of
the residential The town is filled to
overlooking with prosperous an. con-
tented people. Not a man is unem-
ployed, while every merchant is doing
a most fourishing business. Artesia
is on the map in big black letters.

game, striking out nine batsmen.
With the score tied in the sixth
frame Brewster brought in the win
ming run for his team. Felts singled
and went to second on a passed ball
and scored when Brewster laced out
a single. The seventh inning gave
the spectators an exhibition of air
tight baseball, and the game finished
with touch of real honest-to- good
ness playing.

drive to right, but Hood was on the
ground and made a pretty catch, end
ing the game.

playing in left, a brick manufacturer
in the box, and a marblehead in one
