ST. CROlX STATION.
London, Aug. l2th.-The newspapers
this morning give much publicity to the
visit to London. of Mrs. Mary Ellen
Smith, a member of the provincial cabI.
net of British Columbia and a resident OF
Vancouver. Mrs. Smith says that she
is working for a uniform basis of social
legislation throughout the British Empire
so that British subjects can move freely
from one part to another with the cOntl-
dent knowledge that they will enjoy
equal security in all parts. Mrs. Smith
, said that in her opinion the W great
needs for social legislation today are a
minimum wage basis for women workers
and a universal mothers pension act.
Dublin, Aug. 12th.-It was officially
announced today that there will be no
immediate release of political prisoners.
Mr.. O'HiggiDs. Minister of Home Affairs
so informed a delegation of transport
workers who called for release OF the
prisoners and demanded freedom of
speech and of the press for the coming
elections. The minister said the govern
ment has evidence that the Republicans
are preparing to renew their onslaught
on the ECONOMIC life of. the country In
the circumstances, he added, it was not
proposed to release Immediately and in
discriminatory those who have challenged
the people. He did not feel such steps
would be conducive to freedom in the
elections.
