ENGLISH WARSH|P
 PLANS APPROVED
NacDo12Id'S Attempt to Kill
 Measure Fails

London, July 30 P,-The former 1lbor premier Ramsay Macdonald made strenuous efforts to secure passage by the house of commons of an amendment Condemning the gov ornmcnt's cruiser-building program last night, but the governments stand was approved when his pro- posul was rejected by vote of 21G 10 14o. He made the plea that it was unnecessary 10 inniCt an addi- l tionul expenditure of t6S,000,0O0 on ! an already overbrrdencd country, adding to this the argument that there was absolutely nothing to in
 dic0to war for many years.
 Ar. Macdonald deprecated any suggestion that the United. States and Japan were possible enemies, i Several other speakers also referred to this phase of the naval problem. but their remarks were vague and , of u general character.
 Although the governments big
 majority in the commons enabled
 them to defeat the Macdonald 1 amendment, it is generally conceal ed the 'cconomists" dealt some tell
 ing blows, and the opposition news
 papers arc making much capital of it. Winston Churchill, chancellor
 of the eXChoquer, is particularly
 scored for his alleged submission to
 inc coercon of his colleagues and
 defending cruiser building policy,
 to which he was originally opposed.
 It was only recently that the long
 drawn out struggle within the
 cabinet between the supporters of
 the admiralty and the economy
 party ended in triumph for the ad-
 miralty, The cabinet decided on
 new cruisers yearly during the life
 of the present parliament. The
 economy group, of which MT.
 Churchill was supposed to be the
 head, had strenuously opposed com
 hitting the country to a building program in future years, but the
 chancellor yielded because of threats
 of resignation by the first lord of
 the admiralty, w. c. Bridgeman, and the sea lords.
 There is plenty of support for the government, so far as last nights
 debate is concerned, especially
 through the statement, in citing the
 Justification of the ship-building
 program, that the existing ships were fast wearing out. and the em"
 phasis placed on Mir. Bridgeman's contention that if Great Britain did not lay down cruisers this year she would have only to her war de- sign, compared with IS of the United States, q of Japan and 3 , of France.
 The remark of Rear Admiral , suetcr, superintendent of aircraft , construction that there might be 7 friction between Japan and the 3 United States, and that "Se might - he dragged in the same way as , America was dragged into the great I war;" is being commented upon, but 9 the hints of danger from American . naval power in the Pacific have not ? attracted special notice. It is point ! cd out that they were uttered by | navy enthusiasts having no politi' 7 ca Influence outside their own con- ' stituencies.
 = The debate on the appropriations
 for the new warships is to be con-
 tinued today, is considered probable
 that the house will pass them by a s majority approximating that of las' ' nights vote.

THE COAL STU ALTON AND THE pI BLlC

The threat of q general strike ln the anthracite and bituminous coal fields finds the nation singularly content 10 watch and wait. there being d feeling that the government will see to 1t that the mines are kept producing. But shutdo"ns Tn the mast have failed 10 bring about as prompt action as the pubic vou1d have liked and there Is no guarantee that shutdown thls year would result in q spcedier set tIoment of the difficulties. 1rrespec- five of the issues involved, the main interest of the public is the produc- tion and distribution of coal and hoth these necessary functions at vavs suffer when the mines are closed,
 Conditions in the anthracite and ,,,tun,ipous industries are dissimilar and present two distinct problems which differ at every important notnt, Anthracite underlies an area of 5on square miles in northeastern pcnnsvlNania and the industry IS comnact and well organized on both sides of the dispute; the industry IS underdeveloped and production IS controlled by eight large companies uhtrh nroducas 74 per cent ot the on+rut and control 20 per cent or tho nnmined coal: 100 "independ- rni" companies produce 26 per cent Inf the output Such competition as xisrs in the anthracite industry ap- ooars to be confined to the inde- rsndcnt companies.

The first part of last night was like unto something while the sec ond part of the evening was like unto something else. In other words the first halS vas excellent, while the second half was somewhat choked with flying particles of loose cleo tricity. We didn't try for any dis tance and we probably wouldn't habe been successful anyway. But we had an enjoyable evening and received many beautiful gifts, one of them being a bump on the head when the loud speaker gonked us while We were trying 10 fix the "A" batteries.
