the proposal of Lord Rothermere to
abolish unemployment insurance sc
that those who cannot find work il
Great Britain Twill be compelled tc
emigrate to the dominions." OF this
proposal The Herald says:
Il is difficult to know which is the
more shocking-the heartIessness Of
this, or its scarcely belIeVable folly.
Here is the chief proprietor Of
newspaper which has the largest cir
cuiation in the world so iII-acquaint-
ed with public affairs that he does
not know the dominions decline to
receive our industrial unemployed.
The only immigrants they want
are those who can make living on
the land, and of those we have none
to spare. Lord Rothmore's blether
about converting the shiftIess PEN
sioners Of our labor exchanges into
prosperous farmers and graziers" is
either criminaIIy ignorant or bru-
tally insinsere.
The idea behind such talk is
"Get them out of the country. Let
them starve somewhere else" That
is what Lord Rothmere proposes in
his gratitude to the workers for
making him, with their daily PEN
MES, a multi-milIionaire.
TN the columns Of The Daily Herald a
L discussion on the question Of
Shall the Workers ARM" is being
carried on and never has there been
such an outpouring of working class
opinion. The majority trend of this
opinion is not apparent at this time
but the tremendous meaning of such
discussion in parliamentary England
cannot be over-estimated.
As for the die-hards of the ruling
class they have already made up
their minds on the matter. Fascist
organizations have sprung up in
many centers, violence against the
workers is on the increase and the
British courts, those bulwarks of de-
mocracy, are aequitting regularly
those who are accused only of the
shooting and beating of strikers and
THE American capitalist press is
watching the British situation
closely and true to its class instincts
speaks approvingly of the prospect of
a fascist dictatorship in Great Brit
ain. Says The Chicago Tribune of

Revolutionary Troops Take Town.
As soon as news Of the betrayal
reached the faithful revolutionary
troops, they fell back to the vicinity
Of Canton and gradually formed an
iron ring around the usurpers and
after weeks skirmishing the
Yunnanese were completely routed
and their leaders, Yang Hsi-Min and
Liu Chen-Wan escaped to Shanghai
by way of Hongkon. According to cur
rent reports they were materially
aided in their escape by the British
consul. Thus the reactionary ele-
ments within the Kuomintang were
exterminated.
Three Groupings.
From the time Of the October coup
d'etat, the group in power has been
resolving itself into three factors:
First, Feng Yu-Hsiang; second,
Chang Tso-Lin; and third, Tuan Chi
Jui.
Feng Yu-Hsiang was the one who
carried out the technical part of the
coup. Chang Tso-Lin was the war
lord who being decidedly against WI
Pei-Fu necessarily became nominally
united to Feng Yu-Hsiang. Tuan
Chi-Jui is an old statesman whose
career has been checkered with faith
full service to whoever has hired him.
Revision Not Arbitration.

ChiJui was placed nominalIy at the

II would seem that Communism
has strong influence among large
numbers Of British workers, and the
critical question now Is whether the
comparatively moderate leaders like
Thomas, Macdonald, Henderson,
and the inteIIeetuaIs like snowden
and the Webbs have really lost con-
troll Of the rank and file, while still
able to manage the representative
machinery Of the labor party.
Great 5rltain's present acute eco
monte condition Is, Of course, favor
able to extreme radicaIism, and
there may be a serious effort to
paraIyze British transport and pro-
duetion and establish revolution
airy regime. But we doubt that the
British middle class will take it Iy-
ing down. Recent dispatches from
England indicate that something re-
sembIing a fascist movement may
be in train. It won't be replica of
Signor Mussolini's procedure, but it
is likely to be quite as decisive.
There is no tradition of dictatorship
or autocracy in modern Britain, and
the British are too competent in
republican forms Of action to need
a dictatorship, at least for more
than a momentary crisis. But fhe
proletarians in England have 10
deal with class very different from
the aristocracy of Russia or Rus
sia's pitifuI middle class. They
have to deal with men and women
of character and seIf-discipIine, haV-
ing deep solidarity and loyalty,
and plenty of experience in coop
eratiVe effort, intensified during the
late war, and capable of organizing
more formidable resistance than
any prcIetarian movement can over
throw.
The British people may have to
come to grips with the Communist
threat sooner or later, and while
every rightminded person must hope
civil war will be avoided, we sus-
pect that Great Britain would be
the better for a clear showdown
now, which will compel intelligent
British labor to take sides where
it belongs, with the middle class,
and to repudiate the BoIshevik de-
fusion Of the extremists.

Three Lions Killed
In Exciting Chase
By Mrs. John La Zear, Jr.

On December 2Sth, just before dark,
Mr. Geo. Stewart, rancher and neigh
Dor of John La Zear, Jr., rode into the
lions are at work over near my place"
Hastily saddling horses and calling
the two dogs, a hound and shepherd,
Mr.. La Zear, and nephew, John Low
THAN, started on three mile ride
through feet of snow on the level
and from 2 to feet in drifts, and
pitchy darkness, over trail, brushy,
steep and frozen. Leaving the horses
at the Stewart ranch, the three men
and three dogs Gan Airedale joining
them) walked some two or three hun
dred yards down the canyon coming
to where "a big 6-point buck had been
killed and dragged about 80 feet across
the road by lions. They had eaten
only a small portion of the venison.
Here the hound picked up the lion
trail and in about half hour lion
kitten was run up large juniper
tree John Lowthian held lantern
up into the tree and John La Zear
shot the lion. After trailing around
short time another trail, and soon
had another lion up an oak tree,
which was killed in the same way.
Owing to an unusual noise behind
them in the brush, the men sprang
back, thinking it was the old lion.
Young John fell over some rock and
brush, breaking the lantern chimney,
so the chase had to be "called off"
although the hound insisted there
were more.
Next morning at day-break, they
were out again with the hound pull
ing at his leash and "howIing to 60"
He was turned loose and in a few
minutes had the old mother lion in
big pine tree No doubt she was
waiting near in hopes of finding her
young This time John Lowthian
fired the shot, bringing her to the
ground.
The kittens measured feet inch
and were some six or seven months
old The old lion measured feet
from tip to tip.
Their kill was very fat and Mr.. La
Zear says the horns are the prettiest
and most symmetrical he has ever
seen The lions were all very fat and
had no doubt feasted often on such
venison and fat beef.
Jess Votaw, cowboy, has the hides
of the three stretched in fine condi-
iton, as pretty a trio for mounting as
one could wish. The kittens fur be-
ing very long and silky and the large
one sleek and thick.

Winslow High Wins
A Double Header
(By Helen Fussell(

The Winslow basketball warriors
played their second game of the sea-
son with Holbrook, January 9, 1925
The girls, remembering their Flag
staff defeat, played with fight in their
blood. AS the result a close and ex-
citing contest ended in a 1913 score
for the Winslow girls.
Dorothy Scott and Freda Hart as
centers, played fast game, keeping
the ball in the Winslow end a great
part of the time.
Evelyn Proctor and Meta LaPrade
as forwards, did not locate the basket
during the first half, but by the fourth
quarter were throwing their share.
Much credit should be given the
guards for holding the Holbrook for
wards to only ten points, while our
team made thirteen in the same time.
Immediately after the girls game
our boys high-powered team gave
Holbrook a good exhibition of goal
throwing. Winslow started out ahead
and as a result of the entire team
throwing baskets kept far ahead dur
ing the entire time The final score
was 29-13.
A good lively crowd of rooters fol-
lowed the teams to the county seat.
Winslow could be credited with a root
ing victory also.

water system. Electric lights will be
installed. The operating room will
