ON new TERMS
OF GOVERNMENT

Close Vote

LONDON, Nov. 10. - "They are the
most abominable terms ever put be-
fore body of men. They could not
possibly be worse" A. J. Cook, sec
rotary Of the Miners Federation Of
Great Britain told the members of the
delegate conference Of the union meet
ing In London to consider the last
government proposals.
With the Welsh and Yorkshire dis
tricts talking and voting against the
government proposals under the lead
ership Of Cook, vote Of $4,000
against $4,000 carried a motion refer
ring the question to vote of the dis
tricts and a recommendation to accept
the governments basis Of settlement.
The government proposals are
briefly:
District settlements involving longer
hours.
Standard district agreements for
three. years.
A national tribune to accept and
decide on appeals from either side.
The owners portion of mine profits
to be not more than IS per cent and
not less than 10 per cent.
Close Division.
The delegates who spoke in favor
Of referring the matter to the miners
argued that they were doubtless the
best terms possible under the circum-
stances and that the miners are grow
ing weaker all the time.
The South Wales and Yorkshire
delegates were in favor OF continuing
the fight. They pointed out that the
acceptance Of this settlement would
mean the surrender Of the national
agreement, one ct the central issues of
the struggle, and would force the
union to divide it's forces in a strug-
gle against the nationally united own
ers, backed by the government.

Macia denies any connection with
Garibaldi and states that the plot
against the Spanish directorate that
was nipped by French police was of
his own making. But the police seem
to have gathered sufficient evidence to
show that the Italians who were in
volved in the Catalan attempt were
inspired by Garibaldi, himself alleged
to be acting under orders of Italian
fascist.

Hardy, the Famed Novelist, Still Has Poetic
Ambitions.
Ambitions.

such is the case Of Thomas Hardy,
who, still alive at the age of Sc. has
enjoyed the highest literary fame in
England for many years.
Recently Hardy published book
of poems, and he has declared that.
while his fame has been won as a
writer of prose novels. he always
wanted to be poet. In fact. ABOUT
1856 he first began writing verse, and
it was good verse. too. But circum.
stances forced him into the profession
of architecture, in which he won
instant recognition.
lie might have continued as an
architect and become famous in that
line, had not Il story which he had
novelist George Meredith Meredith
saw his ability, and after strong urg-
ing. persuaded Hardy to write novels.
His first one appeared in 1870, and
for the next 25 years he continued to
write books that We're masterpieces
in their field.
Then, having won fame In this
branch Of literature, the old lure of
poetry again returned to Hardy.
Since then he has written much verse
and it is so good that we realize that
it's author. besides being a great
novelist, might have been great poet
and great architect. Yet 1t was
necessary for him to confine his ef
forts to one thing in order to attain
success. and it is ony because fortune
has been so kind to him that he has
been allowed additional years Of life
which. having done his real work. he
can use in writing the poetry that he
