London, Jan. 9.--Ramsay MacDon- aids address in Albert Hall last night fin which he informed his lahorte coRpatriots and through them the ma tion at large. that if made premier his policy would be one of peace at home and abroad, is interpreted as indicat- ing that the labor party will proceed couserratively and slowly, with no in- cination 10 press the extreme articles of the labor platform.
 The meeting. while according Mir. Macdonald great reception in cele- bration of labor's victory al the polls and its prospective plac" a., the gov ernment. was in spirit serious af- fair. The audience loudly sang "The Red Flag" but failed to sing the na- tional anthem. The speakers, sensing the serious responsibilities that con- front the party. made q few remarks that could be hailed as radical and gave every evidence that the party for som" time considered as Great Brit aims revolutionary faction. did not in- tend to make dra stic changes. In fact, Mr. NacDonald's eununciation of de nocracy and socialism" as the funda- mental purposes of the labor move uient. contained the only mention Of the word conservative Britons dread.
 The tone of the labor leaders ad- dress was constructive. and he as sured his hearers that if he should take office he would try and settle the problems confronting the nation and the world.

BEWARE OF CIVIL SERVICE
SCHOOLS.

WASHINGTON, D. c., June 20
The United States Civil Service Com
mission and the National Vigilance
Committee of the Associated Adver'
Using Clubs of the World today
issued q joint warning against mis-
leading advertising of many so-called
civil service coaching schools. the
following points are emphasized:
Cd No school" Of this kind has
any connection whatever with the
Civil Service Commission or with
any other branch of the Government
CD No school can give advance
information regarding examination
questions.
(3) No school can furnish civil
service information of value which
cannot be obtained without cost from
the Civil Service Commission at
Washington or it's representative at
the post office or custom house in
any of approximately $500 cities.
(4) No school can guarantee"
appointment in the classified civil
service. Appointment can be secured
only through open competitive exam
ination under the civil service rules.
No school can cause competitor to
be certified for appointment out of
the regular order, as determined by
his examination rating.
The Civil Service Commission
states that large numbers Of aEpli-
cations for examination received at
it's office indicate that many civil
service schools accept as clients and
take money from practically litter
ate persons who could not possibly
pass any kind of examination.
E.. I. Mckinley, deputy labor com
missioner of Arkansas, it is said in
the joint warning, recently has in
vestigated correspondence schools of
this class and authorizes the state
ment that he has concluded that the
majority of them come as near being
fakes" as the postal laws permit.
The schools" that Mr.. Mckinley
condemns are the ones that offer to
qualify persons for civil service po'
sitions Or make a professional man
of a laborer in few weeks. Mr..
Mckinley says that schools which
prepare for civil service eXaminat
tions rank second to detective
schools" in number.

"WHO SHALL LEAD?" FLOYD j.
CALVIN QUERIES.
preston News ssrvics)

NEW YORK, July 3.-The versatile
and virile writer, Floyd J. Calvin,
who conducts special department in
the Pittsburgh Courier, says in the
issue of June 2Sth:
can echo from the Republican Nat
ional convention recently held in Cleye
land is to the effect that Henry Lin
coin Johnson of Georgia and Perry w.
Howard of Mississippi will be appoint
ed to lead Negroes of New York and
Chicago in the coming Republican cam
paign. If this rumor materializes il
will mean Blow to the party's chances
Of winning in November, which will
not be inconsiderable.
"Some people get expediency and
sound principles mixed. 1t is argued
that since Johnson and Howard are
elevated to the national committee,
the highest tribunal in the party, they
are the logical leaders of Negroes.
They are-in Georgia and Mississippi,
from whence they are elected.
"The only reason Henry Lincoln
johnson and Perry w. Howard are on
the national committee is because
northern Negroes forced their election
as need of recognition for the race
in a section where the Republican
party is the Negro and perforce the
Negro ought to have a voice in the
party councils because of that fact. II
this recognition were not granted,
then that would be an argument
against the Negro gaining rec
ognition elsewhere, for charity
',ogins at home. But to take these
same two southern politicians and put
them over northern Negroes is nothing
more than the old reconstruction prin
ciple of carpet-bag rule. Southern Ne
groes themselves could not resent be-
ing crushed in the South but northern
Negroes, as measure of self protec-
ton, could resent it for them. But it
Is not to be thought that what nortl-
ern Negroes do from personal motives
indicates any particular love for
southern Negro politicians. Northern
Negroes have their own political lead
ers and they believe in local self-gov-
ernment.
