BRITAIN FAILS TO !
HALT Mine STRIKE
200 Trades Unions Decide Il
Cast Lot With Strikers
Troops Called Out.

London-A general strike in all
the great industries throughout
the country began Tuesday. 1t
affected close to 100000 workers,
including more than 100000
miners, who had already given
up their Iabors in the coal fields.
Scenes reminiscent of the early
war days of 1914 were re-enacted
In many parts of London prepara-
tory to coping with the first gen.
eraI strike in EngIand's history.
London-Great Britain faces gen.
eral strike as result of the coal
miners strike against lower wages
and increased hours. Representative
of 203 trades unions, comprising 5,OOO,-
600 workers, with enormous financial
resources, met and decided to back up
the miners by ceasing work in all the
vital services unless settlement of
the miners dispute is reached. The
government moved detachments of
troops into the coal mining areas OF
South Wales, Lancashire and Scot
land. The movement, characterized
as purely precautionary, is to assist
police in maintaining order, govern
ment officials explained. The govern
ment, aroused by the walkout of the
miners, who laid down their tools
when the governmental subsidy ex-
pired, issued proclamation that "a
state of emergency exists" This pro-
clamation, under the law, gives the
government almost unlimited powers,
to be exercised in protecting the gen.
eral public from suffering through
curtailment of the vital necessities.

established a Virtual dictatorship

WASHINGTON, Nov. II. - The
great powers of the world were blam-
ed for the existing affairs in China,
by Sen. William E. Borah, in an ad-
dress before the National Council of
Jewish Women
"The nation that invokes the policy
of brutal force in China with be the
deliberate assassin Of justice in the
orient for decades" he said, and will
dedicate the land to bloodshed and
misery for years to come"
The spirit OF nati9nalism, which
he pointed out as rising against i'm.
periallstic oppression, is the most
tremendous force in the life Of the
Chinese people today. Thru that
spirit he said. China is asking for the
right to self-determination and they
believe that the obstacle to the exer-
else of that right is the encroachment
of foreigners on their territorial SOW
ereignty. More than 40 of China's
important cities and her great ports
are now under foreign control, he told
the women.
