LABOR PREMIER
UNDER fire FOR
MEXICAN CRISIS
British Governments
Foot In Oil
lspeeIaI o the paIIy Worker.l

\0pGOl0t " liz LAZY WOEkCTsl
LONDON, June 19.-Criticism Of
Premier Ramsay Macdonald and the
Labor government for their bootlick-
ing attentiveness to British oil inter
ests in Mexico has increased enor-
mously since the Mexican government
has again politely offered to let the
English agent provocateur, H. A. c.
Cummins, depart in peace-if he will
80 soon.
Macdonald has showed the whole
Mexican recognition issue aside since
he has headed the government and
shown no interest in behalf either Of
the workers Of England or of Mexico.
Bows to Bosses.
His action is being condemned as
one of the most glaring failures Of the
Labor government to safeguard the
people as opposed to the capitalist
imperialists, particularly the oil
barons of the Shell company.
President Obregon Of Mexico has
been rudely ignored by Macdonald
most of the Labor premier's critics
agree. The premier promised months
ago to settle the British-M Mexican sit
uation; but instead he allowed the
'archivist" Cummins to remain under
the protection of the British legation
in Mexico City, from where Cummins
sent out the most treacherously false
reports on Mexican conditions.
Lies SIavishIy.
- eo,,~-ffo,,r orJ ~.-hof1~v -,
oficial notes to the Mexican foreign
relations secretary have come to light
In the present crisis. brought primari-
ly by Cummins' lying reports on the
case of Mrs. Rosalie Evans, wealthy
hacienda owner, in which Mexico took
a determined stand to get the vicious
British agent to leave the country.
English readers have been amazed
that the British government, especial
ly under a Labor premier, could allow
such utilization by it's representative
to continue.
Mexico has made every proper move
to get England's diplomatic attention,
but the big business of British peers
has each time stepped on recognition,
according to the critics of the govern
ment. In the present instance Mex
leo has again been polite and given
the lying British agent another chance
to leave the country without being de-
ported, altho for more than two years
he has been a constant offense and
source of danger to the Obregon gov
eminent.

The Chilean mind ter's interven-
ton is held responsible for this last
condescension on the part of Mexico
in granting Cummins another chance.
MacDonalds appeal to the United
States secretary of state, thru Am
bassador Kellogg, did not win the La
Dor premier any respect. 1t was too
obviously a move of the British big
bosses to get their American col
leagues to stir up another rumpus in
a Mexico that is trying to stabilize
itself constitutionally, since it has
not yet reached the position of real
workers government.
1t is expected that Sir Thomas
Hohler will go to Mexico soon, as pre-
viously planned, to make an investi-
cation and report to Britain on the
ACCESSIBILITY of recognition. Cummins'
departure is anticipated, unless Mac
Donald allows himself to stoop even
lower in kissing the feet of the Brit
ish capitalists.

Mrsr. Grace Stanley, state super
intendent of elementary education.

The protest to Mrs, Stanley told
that the board of education of that
city has forbidden teachers in the
schools using cosmetics during
school hours.
On the grounds that their beau
ty is marred by the edict to y very
considerable extent, the teachers
asked for a verdict from Mrs. Stan
ley.
Banning the use of cosmetics by
teachers or even their pupils Mrs.
Stanley commented on the pro-
test, "creates far more serious
