Gallatin answered him June 8,

rent and added with a touch of
sarcasm that his father-in-law might
afterward "make a present of the
money to yourself or any other
person." He added, however, that
$40 per annum is considered the
highest sum which ought to be al

Pope replied that he thought IS
was the minimum he should be al

the other for the public papers Of

BY MILTON BRONNER

LONDON, July 21.-The menac-
ing picture of complete paralysis
of her industrial life now hangs
over England as the result of the
dispute between the British miners
and mine operators.
The situation appears more seri-
Gus than the threatened anthracite
strike in the United States. In q
frank and timely interview, A. J.
Cook, the militant secretary of the
British Miners Federation says
that unless the government can find
some way to solve the problem, more
than $500, 600 workers in essential
British industries will join the l.
100000 miners in great strike
soon after July 81.
Cook predicted that the army of
railroad men, the transport workers
and the engineering-each an essen
tial class to Britain's industrial life
would strike to back the miners
