Inc shadow of Inc lxailows

His Grace of Buckingham had mol
 accompanied the Court in Is flight to ! Salisbury. His duties, indeed. re. called him to his lord .liontenancy in | York. But he was as deaf 10 the voice of duty as 10 that of caution He was held fast in London, in the thraldom Of his passion for Mia rarquhsrson, and enEascd because that passion rrospered not st all. IL was his obsession on the score of Miss Farduharson that was respon. eible for his neglost of tho letter that
 Iolies had written to him. That sp- peal had reached him at a moment when he was plunged into dismay by the news that Sir John Lawrence's orders had gone forth that all thea ters and other places of assembly should close upon the following Sat. urdsy. es a very necessary measure in the Lord Mayors campaign against the plague Now the closing of the thsaters mean; the withdrawal of tho players from Town. and with that the end of his rrsce's opportunities Either he must acknowledge defeat, or else act promptly.

SEX SLAVERY ON
PLANTATIONS UP
TO BRITISH LABOR
Compulsory Prostitution
On Islands Continue
BIZ w. FRANcIs AHERN.

MELBOURNE, Australia, May &c.
Will the British Labor government
tolerate the manner in which native
labor is exploited by the French au-
thorities in the New Hebrides islands
(South Pacific ocean, and women are
handed over by the French for COM
mon use of the male workers?
Independent Investigations show
that the position of women on French
plantations in the islands in intoler-
able. The women are illegally taken,
and illegally kept beyond their time
They are used by the planters to de-
coy men. They are married or d.
vorced at the will OF the planter, and
are given over to the promiscuous use
of men. In other words. enforced
prostitution seems to be the order Of
the day.
The British government. which with
the French government exercises Joint
control Of the islands, has acknowl-
edged that these conditions exist, but
protests its inability to put a stop to
the practices.
From what The Federated Press is
able to gather from traders and mis-
sionaries joint control Of the islands
has failed to protect the natives or
to settle a single land dispute.
Now that labor government is in
control in Great Britain, II is urged
that steps be taken to secure complete
control of the islands by the elimina-
ton OF the French, whose ideas Of
In the New Hebrides are
not in line with civilized standards.

Should Hanihara quit the two coun-

now gets from six days, profits on
this years basis would be swelled to
approximately s112,O0O,O0O on the in
vested capital totaling S435.000,000.
Workers Made It All.
If the workers are asked to sacri-
flee one-sixth of their wages, about
$12 per car, to make up this satisfac-
tory return the question whether this
enormous investment is not in reality
the investment of the employees during
20 years becomes pertinent. The or
iginal capital from which this huge
concern developed was $4,000. Sur
plus profits provided the rest.
Surplus profits at the end of the
year had accumulated to S442,041 ,0S1
or $3.50 per share of stock. This was
produced by the most scientific ex-
ploitation OF workers yet devised.
This result OF the workers increased
productivity exists as an excuse for
larger profits rather than as a basis
for shorter hours without reducing
pay showing how small is the work
er's stake in industrial progress so
long as it is dominated by private in
terests.

by the Bankers Association, the

permitting the hiring Of men thru

nor made no direct reply, but said
that he had tried to see that the "hir-

men for government ships; he could
not say whether the anti.union rule
still prevailed on government ships
or not.
