Leon Trotzky and other Russian

the move simply was in keeping with
new tactics having a stheir purpose
flank attack on capitalism instead
of the old open battle for an imme-

Some opponents, however, consider
that this step would mean the ulti-

the left wing of a united body.

COUNTRY VERY ANXIOUS

London, March 6-Within twenty
four or at most 48 hours, the world
will know definitely whether Prime
Minister Lloyd-George has decided to
resign or continue as chief of the
coalition government. This is the
only substantial conviction emerging
from tangle Of contradictory ru-
mors in the crisis which engrossed po-
litical observers over Saturday and
Sunday.
Experts today were diametrically
opposed in their opinion as to haw
the crisis stood as result Of week.
end conferences, some declaring that
the outlook for continuance Of the
coalition was improved and encour-
aged belief that the prime minister
would not resign. Others declared all
signs pointed to his retirement and
that Liberal colleagues in his minis
try would go with him. Some were
content to refrain from committing
themselves to any opinion whether the
result would be a smash-up or a
patch-up. Even if the prime minis
ter stays, nobody believes that the
coalition can last much longer though
it may be prolonged until Irish legis-
lation and the Genoa conference are
out of the way. 1t is generally cred
tied in certain quarters that nothing
will be definitely announced until the
speech of Sir Arthur Balfour on Tues
day. 1t is declared that the preem-
inent interest in Sir Artur's utteranc-
es will be a positive declaration as
to the prime mnster's decision.
Balfour Will Not Have 1t.
= If this expression is for resignation
of Mr.. Lloyd George, Sir Arthur will
not in any event assume the premier
ship, according to repeated state
ments made today, but will be willing
to take office under Austen Chamber
lain as prime minister. (Mr Cham
berlain is government leader in the
house of commons).
Friends of Lloyd George assert he
is exceedingly tired and will gladly
quit responsibilities of his office. If
he holds on, will only be because of
recognition that chaos is likely to fol-
low his retirement in present peculiar
circumstances. Whether he goes or
stays, he has decided to take an inn
holiday which he will proba-
bly, enjoy at his country home in Cric-
cieth, small watering place in Wales
situated in the county of Carnarvon on
Cardigan Bay. If he does not resign
this vacation will practically fill the
entire period until the Genoa. confer

Taylor had had an affair, only to
"scorn" her later. Then the husband
and wife planned and executed the

signed to the Confession" but the
police stated they were certain that
the man had not guilty knowledge of
the crime.
They said, however, that despite
the fact tha ia name they believed

felt inclined to believe the "confes-
sor" had "some definite connection"

GOVERNMENT PLANNING
TO PRESERVE GAME AS
STATES FAIL TO Do It
(By Associated Press)

Washington, March 6-Action pro-
badly will be taken during the next
week by the house agriculture COM
mittee on the public shooting ground
game refuge bill introduced by Rep
resentative Anthony, Republican,
Kansas, committee members said to-
day. A similar measure has been
introduced by Senator New, Repub-
lacan, Indiana.
At hearings held recently by the
house committee, it was brought out
that the bill, if enacted into law,
would afford protection to migratory
game birds, at the same time increas-
ing the shooting opportunities of
sportsmen of the country. Passage
of the bill was advocated by repre-
senthtiwes lbf the American Game
Protective and Propagation Associa-
tion and by number of state game
commissioners who appeared before
the committee.
The measure provides that hunters
of migratory birds shall pay a federal
license fee of one dollar. Funds thus
received by the government would be
used to purchase and improve land
and water areas throughput the coun-
try, many of which would be desig-
mated as public shooting grounds with
certain parts set aside as refugees on
which no shooting would be permitted
Some of the areas would serve as pub
lie shooting grounds during the open
season, functioning as a refuge dur
ing the closed period, while on others
no shooting would be permitted at
any time. The bill provides that no
land may be acquired without the ap-
proval of the legislature of the state
in which the property lies.

Gainesville Loses
Suit to Make A. G.
L. Pay for Paving
CBy Associated Press)

Tallahassee, March 1.-THE su-
preme court has declared unconsti-
tutional provisions of charter
granted by the legislature to the city
of Gainesville which in effect per-
mitted the city to assess the Allan
tic Coast Line railroad for a proper
tionate share of the entire expense
of paving streets traversed by the
railroad.
In reaching its decision the high
er court reversed the action of the
circuit court for Alachua county in
rendering judgment against the car
rer for $4,000 for the paving of a
portion of Main street.
The carriers tracks extend longi-
tudinally along the street. The rail-
road voluntarily paid the expense of
paving between its tracks and for
two feet on each side, but the city,
under the provisions of its charter,
sought to have it pay share of the
expense for paving the entire width
of the street.
The supreme court declared these
provisions to be wholly unwarrant-
ed" and an "unwarranted exercise"
of legislative power.

JAX PARTY IS COMING

One of the most important9meet-
ings of the Chamber of Commerce
since its organization will be held to-
night at 7:30, the early hour being
set in order that all who may so de-
sire can attend the annual election
of the Elks, which will take place at
$3.50.
At the meeting tonight the report
of the special roads committee, which
has been working for the last three
months on plan for. the construc-
tion of a system of good roads in the
county, which includes bridge
across the river at Palatka, will be
made. This report is not yet COM
plete, as the construction of bridge
is a matter which cannot be deter
mined until the. committee has re-
ceived further information as to
whether or not it is possible to Sc
cure a financing corporation to build
it independent of any bond issue in
the county.
1t is understood that the report
calls for an expenditure of approx
imately 100000 to complete the
system of roads and bridges as
mappe dout. The estimates were
made on a basis of prices several
months ago, and it is pointed out that
these might be considerably less
when the bonds are issued, if they
are issued.
Jacksonville Wants to Come.
At tonight's meeting plans will be
made for entertaining the party of
Jacksonville business men who will
tour the state in an effort to get
closer together. They will reach Pa
latka at o'clock in the afternoon
and remain here until midnight, so it
is probable that a banquet will be
arranged, if it meets with the ap-
proval of the chamber.
Reports on the recent campaign
for school warrants, for the school
fund and other matters will be made,
and Secretary Hart has volume of
