WASHINGTON, May 6. - OPP
VIM. H. Johnston, president of the In
ternational Association of Machinists,
stated to The Federated Press that the
American labor movement could at
least learn a lesson of solidarity from
the united action of British labor in
this crisis.
He said that while Britain has the
advantage of single tongue, a single
race and single history, as contrasted
with the diverse origin and back
ground of the mass of American work.

organization and spirit of solidarity

Fred Hewitt, editor of the Machin.
lists Journal, who was born in Eng.
land, declared that the present strike
was simply one more expression of
the British peoples refusal to sur
render to economic oppression. The
leadership OF the movement, he said,
was a guaranty of careful and res.
ponsible action, made necessary by
refusal of the government OF
wealthy nation to responsibly meet an
economic crisis in which the people
were abandoned to poverty or starva-
ton.

Militant Miners

The coal commissions report was at
tackled more by this group because 1t
urged the end of the subsidy to the
mine owners than because it threaten
ed the living standards of the miners.
The whole leading strata Of the
Communist Party, with few excep-
tions, had been sent to Wandsworth
prison for telling soldiers and sailors
not to shoot workers when called upon
to do so, and this had occurred as a d.
rect result of the offensive against
the Communists launched by the Mac
Donald wing Of the Labor Party at
Liverpool.
The strike of the seamen earlier in
the year had been lost because the
official labor movement did not sup
port it.
The only encouraging signs were
the victories of number of labor
party candidates in by-elections but
these victories had served mostly to
strengthen the confidence of the Off
cialdom in the effectiveness Of pure
parliamentary action.
Cook began tour of the coal fields.
The Labor Party officialdom looked
on at first contemptuously, then toll
erantly and then with amazement.
The meetings of miners listened to
Cook and then voted for the left wing

Herbert Smith, chairman Of the Min

districts.
The executive committee responded
to the unmistakable demand and, fol-
lowing the instructions contained in
the resolutions passed at mass meet
ings and delegate meetings, asked for
full support from the Trades Union
Congress.
The Miners Federation is the larg-
est union in the Trade Union Con-
gress and when it spoke with one
voice thru its executive, a voice which
the T. u. c. officials knew was the
voice of over a million miners, whose
votes had been recorded daily in the
London Herald, official organ Of the
n. U. G. and the Labor Party ian or
gan, by the way, whose chief support
comes from the miners), 1t was listen
ed to with new sympathy and re-
spect.
In the meantime, in the whole labor
movement, new militancy could be
noticed. The left wing was consoli.
dating its influence and It had issues
and a program which began to group
around its center-the National Minor
ity Movement-the best elements of
the labor movement.

Old City of Wales
Buried Under Sand

We are accustomed to buried cities
Of the East, and even in the forests
Of Africa one is not surprised to hear
that ancient ruins have been buried In
the jungle But to find buried city
in Wales seems something Of an
anomaly.
Yet on the borders of Swansea bay,
in the heart Of a great aandhill, lies
the buried Sity Of Kenng. There ID
today village close by called Ton
Kenfg. It is behind the sandhills
in which the buried city lies, and
from which the broken wall Of q
ruined tower projects to this day.
In the days of the Conqueror Kendg
was walled city, great commercial
center, and filled with armed men.
But an insidlous foe-the blown sand
was always liable to break down
its best defences. Year by year, bit
by BIT, 1t gained the victory, till By
the time Queen Elizabeth began hsr
reign there was little to be seen Of
the city except q dune and a ruined
tower.
Fer ages tradition had It that tha
town was submerged by sand In q
great storm. az Pempeii ives over
whelmed BY volcanic dust, but the
chronicles Of Margam abbey, which
have recently been examined. make It
plain that the sand encroachments
lasted for many years, and that the
process of burying this Welsh city
was a slow one.-London Times.

Mt. Berry Schools
Get Many Students

Atlanta, Ga.-The spring term OF
BERRY Schools at Mount Berry, nat
ionally known institution for poor
boys and girls of the mountain and
rural districts, has opened with one
of the largest enrollments in its his
tory, in fact, according to Il. Leland
Green, principal, in statement made
public here today, the number of ap-
plications received already exceeds
the number of rooms available.
With the close of the holidays
though the school runs through
Chrismas-four students have been
given their diplomas. They are
Kathleen Pirkle, Ava Curry, Leona
Darsey and Leonard Quinn. No va
cation was taken at Christmas, as the
short term of the schools makes 1t
necessary to run during that time to
meet the requirements of the Asso-
citation of Colleges and Schools.
But the students and faculty at
Berry, the authorities state, spent
most happy and profitable Christmas
week, and the regular exercises were
interrupted for only one day. The
holiday program ended with New
Years reception and party. :,
christmas week was checked full
of entertainment for the students,
said Principal Green today. The
singing of carols was great feature.
Christmas day the boys and girls
dined together. There were Christ
mas tree exercises and a playlet,
"The Spirit of Christmas" which was
we'll done. In addition wonderful
Christmas party was enjoyed by the
faculty and students. Folk games OF
our forefathers were played. The
Berry choir sang Nevin's beautiful
Christmas cantata at the Sunday
Song Service"
