What I mentioned in q previous article Is
beginning to happen. Throughout British in
dustry there is a new spirit at work after this
conflict. endeavoring to secure long truce
between employers and employed and to regu
late employment and wages by some form Of
prof1tsharing arrangement. That, to my
mind, Is the only solution of British Industrial
problems. Men must be persuaded to work
more for better rewards. That American
prosperity. so staggering to world ina gination,
seems to prove that workngclass conditions
and national prosperity may be attained better
by intelligent cooperation between capital and
labor than by socialistic theories and eternal
conflict.
Anyhow. political leaders in England are
beginning to reshape their ideas and prepare
bombproof shelters for themselves against the
time when they will have to stand the racket
of political consequences. Cook. the miners
leader, is shouting treachery with hystercal
emotion against most Of his former colleagues.
He Is enraged because they stopped short Of
the final catastrophe Of the age to proetariat
and himself. But men like Ramsay Macdonald
and his parliamentary collea gues who had this
little screecher as their worst enemy, TAX
ing stock Of the situation and deciding, by
hook or by crook, they must scotch the Red
element in British trade unions and recapture
a moderate constitutional position.
AS far as l find out labor has not lost
clined to think that communism will receive
many new recruits from those who lose their
Jobs, because they will be bitter and jaundiced
men. On the other hand. moderate labor Of
constitutional mind will be strengthened by
the feeling said to prevail in Industrial centers
that the position of the working classes as
whole has had setback. The middle classes

I believe. personally, that Premier Baldwin

in park lands.
On this program Mr.. Lloyd George Ropes
to win many votes. Not even he is optimistic
enough to think that the Liberal party will
come back strong enough to hold office, but
he believes he will be strong enough to hold
political opposition. Last Saturday he let the
cat out of the bag Having repeatedly denied
any overtures to labor. he now warned them
that without Liberal support they would be
powerless to gain working jority in the
House Of Commons. That support he offered
them OF one condition. In return for their
acceptance Of his program-this land policy
his support will be forthcoming. To his own
followers he promises "A sufficient number
of Liberals to dominate the policy Of the next
Parliament not merely to assist. did last
time, but to insist"
This Is avowal, at last, that Lloyd George
will go in with labor If it will go In with him.
Meanwhile Lord Oxford and Asquith. Sir John
Simon and other Liberals of the old school
will see Lloyd George to perdtion before they

not affrighted by this challenge. Their
policy is quite different. They hope to secure
the prosperity of the country by a minimum
of Legislation and more rapid development of
the empires resources linked up with inten-
sve cooperation between capital and labor in
the mother country. They expect economic
recovery to be rapid when all the factories

Turning Coal Into Fluid or Electric

Of energy, the electrical current. To
transport solid coal from the mine to
the factory requires a large part of
its power. To transport water from
the mountain to sea requires no
power. 1t will flow down hill Of its

with what Is for 1t an empty pipe
that is. copper wire. And the electric
