What Government
of British Labor
Party May Mean
tBy The Federated Press,

LONDON.-The Labor Party gov
ems the British empire. Ramsay
Mac onald, rnciiist socialist leader
Of the British Labor Party, is pre-
mier. On Jan. 2, the recently cleo
ted house Of commons voted no con-
tidence in the Baldwin Tory govern
ment by 1928 to 256, and the king
for the first time in the history of
the empire had to hand over the
reins of government to working class
representatives.
Labor assumes power at critical
time after Liberal-Tory coalition
and a Tory government have failed
to solve the menacing problems of
unemployment in Eng!arnl, European
chaos resulting from the robbers
peace Of Versailles. and colonial UNI
rest in the British empire. But since
the Labor Party is still a minority
and governs only on sufferance OF
Liberal votes, no basic reforms are
expected to result from the Mac
Donald ministry.
The chief domestic policies, cap
ital levy and naturalization Of public
utilities and national resources. upon
which Labor fought the election, can
not be put into effect because of the
Liberal veto. 1t is expected, how
ever, that the Liberals will support
Macdonald in a pacific foreign policy
entailing recognition of Russia, open
support of Germany against France
for evacuation of the Ruhr, reduc-
ton of PREPARATIONS, and rewriting the
disastrous peace treaty, reform of
the capitalist league of nations, and
more independence for the British
colonies and mandates.

Capitulates and

Forced by the determined attitude
Of the Milk Producers Association
to withdraw their ultimatum speci-
flying years contract and a stated
quantity Of milk that farmers must
supply or be boycotted by them, the
Bowman Dairy Company has again
made peace with the members Of
the Milk Producers Association.
The capitulation Of the company
removes the threat Of a renewal Of
the recent strike and officials of the
milk producers organization state
that unless the distributors issue
further arbitrary ultimatuhs COM
plete peace will be restored.
The present agreement between
producers and distributors. expires
April l, at which time difficulty may
arise during the negotiations for
renewal Of the agreement.

Labor Circles Are

Vicious propaganda methods the

sticks of dynamite in the basement
of a building on Harrison street,
where several local unions have Of

A Greek restaurant and other BUSH

the Daily News, which says with
the utmost cocksureness that zone
Of the many unions which have head
quarters" there ''had stocked UP with
a supply Of explosives in preparation
of union warfare"
Not a shred Of evidence is offered
by the reporter to sustain this libel
Gus statement.
Interviewed by the DAILY WORK
Err, officials of the unions In the
building denounced the whole affair
as a plot to discredit labor unions

Smith to Probe
Corrupt Control
ofN. Y.LawBody
tBr The FEDERATED Pres,

NEW YORK.-Political interest
here is conferred upon the impending
investigation of the State Labor De-
partment, to be conducted by Gov
ernor Smith this week. The inquiry
results from charges brought against
the labor department by the Asso-
ciated Industries. Il
In all probability, the Associated
Industries, a reactionary group of
factory owners and merchants, will
rue the day they demanded an inves-
tigation. Governor Smith has sub
poenaed thirty-six officers and direc-
tors Of the Associated IndusfKs s,
Inc, to appear before him when the
inquiry opens. In all likelihood, the
investigation viii be directed against
the Associated Industries them
selves, and will shed much light upon
the lobby thru which that organiza-
ton has been opposing social legis-
lation for many years.
The captains Of industry, as they
like to call themselves, will be put
on the stand. As a result, it is pos
sible that the governor will ask GER
tain legislators to explain why they
have been influenced by the political
intrigues Of this manufacturers ois.
ganization.
Unless the Associated Industries
decide to scurry from the ship they
overhastily chartered, significant
facts as to the functions Of a politi-
cal lobby may emerge from the in
vestigation.

dissipated with the arrival here Of a
recent issue of the Mexican daily,
"Revista de Yucatan," describing in
detail the manner in which Carrillo,
his three brothers and nine other
labor men met death at the hands
Of firing squa2d.
Previous rumors, taken from the
reactionary paper, Excelsior" by
the Mexico City correspondent of
The Federated Press, suggested that
implicit belief in the report of Car
rillo's execution is unwarranted.
What is regarded as an authentic
description of the tragic events of
January and states that the thir-
teen Mexican revolutionists, includ-
ing the four Carrillo brothers, were
taken into custody on the charge of
disturbing the public peace" Held
incommunicado, they were rushed
thru farcical, brutal court martial
procedure. The military prosecutor
was scarcely obliged to produce evil
dence, with the verdict a foregone
conclusion. Sentence Of death was
passed upon the thirteen labor pris-
oners unceremoniously. Asked If he
wished to make a final statement,
Felipe Carrillo remained silent. He
was shot at 4:30 on the morning
Of January 8. His comrades were
"put up against the wall" in quick
succession.
It is now believed that rumors
of CarliIlo's survival were circulated
by the reactionary authorities in or
der to quell the indignation aroused
by news Of the executions.

District No. 2, Illinois, has been
appointed chairman Of the scale COM
mittee, which will meet the opera
tors committee in the wage nego-
tiations arising out of the contract
expiration March 81.
Other important committee chair
men are: Lonnie Jackson, Kentucky,
constitution committee; Lee Hall,
Ohio, officers reports; John Hessler,
Indiana, appeals and grievances be-
fore whom will come the Howat case
and those of other districts whose
charters Lewis has revoked or sus-
pended; Thomas Kennedy, Pennsyl-
vania, resolutions. If Harrington, as
is rumored, has patched up his diff
ferences with Lewis, all committee
chairmen are solid administration
men.
The reports Of international audi
tors and the committee on old age
pensions have had their reports ac-
cepted without debate.
A telegram from Samuel Gompers
contained no suggestions for solu-
ton Of the seGious problems that the
convention faces but instead advised
the miners to look forward to the
day when electric power would be
generated at the mouth Of the mines.
Just how this would better the con-
dition Of the miners or reduce the
number of their unemployed the tele-
gram did not explain.
