Swat the Utilities Bill


The closer the pending utilities bill
is scanned the, more reasons appear
why it should be killed in the 1egis-
lature, and killed so dead that, like
Lucifer, it will never rise again.
Time was when a bill to regulate
utilities could be presented under the
livery of reform" and pushed by pro
gressives" with tears in their eyes for
the dear "peepur' whom they were pre-
tending to serve. But that time is
past. Everybody knows that there is
no popular demand for a utilities COM
mission in Florida. Experience has
shown that regulation invariably re-
suits in the corporations setting con-
troll of the regulative machinery and
running it in their own interest.
The utilities bill is sponsored by the
friends of the utilities. It's effect
would be to take every public service
corporation in the state out of the
control of the legislature, or. if a
local concern, out of the control of
the municipality, and place it under
autocratic authority of three men. No
wrong could be redressed, no evil corr
rected, no change of any sort made by
the people except through an appeal
to these men. And if the utilities con-
trolled the commissioners it is a
hundred to one they would-it would
be exactly equivalent to turning the
whole state over to them to deal with.

BRITAIN ON VERGE OF REVOLUTION.
Triple Alliance Takes Up Battle of Miners in Ultimatum
to Government to Accede to Naturalization.

Incipient revolution hovers over
the British Isles. What the outcome
will be within the next few days or
weeks no one can prophesy with any
assurance of certainty. The facts to-
day are: The Triple Alliance of
Miners, Transport Workers and Rail
road Workers are united solidly to-
gether in a great combination and
with one common aim against the
government Of the British Empire
to force it to nationalize the coal
mines. The government has appealed
to, the "public" to volunteer in a
defense force" for a period Of
ninety days to assist the police in
controlling the situation now beyond
the power of the government with
out armed assistan e. N
For the past two weeks the situa.
tion has gradually grown more un-
settled. Beginning in a strike of L.
100000 miners, the movement now
embraces the entire railway, and
other land transport systems, pro.
bably 100000 workers.
The direct causes are. The viola
tion Of the agreements between the
government and the miners for gov.
ernment control Of the mines until
August and the setting up Of a Wage
Board before March 81. Instead, the
government, has turned the mines
back to the private owners and
refused to inaugurate the Wage
Board, thus returning to- the condi
tions prevailing before the war. I

sion that I was in a Rest Home and

Captain Kirkpatrick was captured
during the Red drive against General
Wrangel. Interned with him in this
camp are numbers Of counter-revolu
tionists Of note. Some members Of
the Hungarian nobility such a!
Count Szechenyi, brother-in-law ol
Gladys Vanderbilt, have found lod
ging from their labors here.
According to the Rosta Agency
Captain Kirkpatrick feels very peev

ernment has not made decisive eff
forts to secure his release and ha!
requested political friends here tt
intercede in his behalf.
Should such an exchange Of pris
oners take place as is minated tt

miners, learning lessons from pre-
vious strikes, have ordered out the
pump men, thus flooding the mines
and entailing a loss to the owners
of millions Of pounds sterling. They
have refused to set the pump men
to work as a condition to meeting
in conference with the government
and owners concerning the adjust
ment Of their grievances. They are
using, every weapon against the gov,
eminent.
One reason for the solidity Of the
miners and transport workers in that
the same situation facing the miners
will also come before the railroad
workers in August when the roads
are scheduled to be returned by the
government control to the private
owners. The government is thru
with any experiments IN 'soclailza-
tion". and fears the naturalization
of the mines as an irrevocable step
toward ,socialization of basic indus

Gitlow and Larkin were convicted

their cases. Gitlow was recently
transferred to Sing Sing.
The ruling in the case has beer
