INDEPENDENT LABOR PARTY,
POLITICAL APPLE OF BRITISH
WORKERS. EYE, CRUMBLING
BY EVELYN PRESTON.
Federated Press Staff Corresponds

Feoerated FreSS stan correspondent.
YORK, England-A general agree
ment not to embarrass the British La
Dor government marked the annual
spring conference of the Independent
Labor party at York. Prime Minister
Ramsay Macdonald and five other
cabinet members belong to the /. l..
p, as do over half of the Labor mem
bers of parliament.
An instance of this desire not to
embarrass was the decision to aban-
don the historic practice of preceding
conferences of instructing the party
members in parliament to vote
against army and navy appropriations.
This time they were left to vote as
they please, while the party confined
its anti-militaristic action to urging
the government to start disarma-
ment conference.
Another instance was the federation
extended to Macdonald when he casu-
ally referred to Socialism as a book
ish term" Only few Scottish mem
bers expressed a hushed dismay.
The proceedings as a whole were
marked by expert knowledge and con-
else talks rather than by vague repe-
tition of formulas. Education from
kindergarten to college. agriculture,
health and finance were the chief
topics.
Premier Macdonald claimed as
achievements of the Labor govern.
ment the recognition of Russia, with
the conference over trade and credits
now going on in London between
representatives of two great Labor
governments of Europe" the aban-
donment of the Singapore naval base
which would have been a menace to
other powers in the far east, better
relations with the powers of western
Europe and first steps in meeting the
housing problem in Great Britain.
Clifford Allen, chairman of the par
ty, struck the keynote with his asser-
ton that the business of the delegates
was to confer on how to construct
Socialism rather than destroy capital
ism.
The 1. L. P. was organized SO years
ago by Keir Hardie as an organiza-
ton for spreading Socialist ideas. II
was then a small courageous group OF
pioneers. Today it numbers 10000
members and As the driving core of
the heterogeneous British Labor
party.

whenever the 'exigencies of his office
permit he indulges in his equestrian
hobby. Last summer he enjoyed a
three-day ninety-mile saddle trip
from Washington to Warrenton, Va,
and thence to Front Royal remount
station. During the fall Gen. Per-
shing spent several days in hunting
wild turkeys and ducks among the
lakes and canebrakes of Louisiana.

Pershing returning from an invigo-
rating canter on one of his favorite

gress for the kings and queens of the
equine world
Since the War Department has adopt
ed the policy of holding occasional pub
lie reviews of different branches of the
service on the Washington Monument
lot, Gen. Mitchell and Maj. Gen. w. A.
