ENGLAND'S TORIES
 JARRED ID SPINE
DOnaldsOn's Appointment to Westminster Post Shocks Elm
BY Milton Bronner NEA Service Correspondent,

NEA Service Correspondent.
 London, Sept. 26.-All the die fards in England-political, social, financial and eccesiastical-have been jared to the spine by the news that the king, upon recommenda- ton of Premier Macdonald, has approved the appointment of Social ist Frederic Lewis Donaldson 10 be Canon of Westminster Abbey.
 What the accession of Macdonald 10 the premiership was, so Is the ac- cession of Donaldson to the Canon- ry It is nothing less than a sensa- ton.
 Donaldson owes his new place di- rectly to his friend the premier, who was backed up in it by the almost unanimous demand of the trades unions of the United Kingdom,
 AS a prominent churchman, Dr. Donaldson stands in class by him. self.
 A graduate of Oxford University, his first parishes were in various parts of London where he came in- to contact with the poor and the humble and became passlonately devoted to their cause. But if was when he became Vicar of st. Marks in the great industrial city of Lei cester that he made England sit up and take notice. He was one of the founders Of the Christian Social Union and Of the Church Socialist League.
 In 1905 when unemployment was rife all over England, he headed a march of the unemployed to Letces- ter to London. He took his flock to Lambeth Palace, rang the bell, and invited the archbishop to come out and speak 10 the men.
 When l asked the first Labor Canon of Westminster Abbey for q message, he said:
 All through my life as a clergy man I have affirmed and reaffirmed the iudelibe union between the deep spiritual truths of the Gospel and the great Labor Movement which agitates the world,
 "The latter, when analysed, ex- presses the peoples passion for new, fuller, and better human life. It is false to say this means simply the loaves and fishes. It means this, but it also means life intellectual and life spiritual.
 "All the great prophets of Labor have made this their cry and it is to this that the peoples response has been made. My prayer as Canon of Westminster will be what it was be- fore-that Labor shall use its power for the whole good of all classes, especially of the poorest and weak est. In this way only can the king dom of God come on earth"
