OppositiOnists Defeated.

The oppositionist leadership appears
to be in the disadvantageous posltloh
of being forced either to sue for peace
and be admitted to fellowship on the
condition of complete subJection To
the Stain group or face their adver-
saries in purely oral battle, with no
force behind them to sustain thelr
challenge.
AS things stand. the door of the
Communist party is still open to the
opposition1sts. but they can re-enter
only on condition that they submit
to the discipline and control OF the
party on the same basis as other mem
bers. Attempts to re-enter the party
as a distinct group seemed futile.

Elected in the increase in the
number of plumbers, gas-fitters
and steamfitters, observes Hygeia,
the health magazine published by
the American Medical Association
The national industrial confer

to be SIT per cent in SO years; in
1870. the number Of persons EN-.
ployed in these occupations was,
for each million OF population,
200 and, in 1920. it was 1856.
This condition has an influence
on the gradual decrease Of typhoid
fever in American communities.
It is estimated that If the typhoid

day, there would have been co..
900 cases in Chicago instead Of
the 200 that occurred this year.

FIRST PANTOMIME HORSE

Creator and Prop of Comic Quad

After 81 Years.

By the Associated Press.
LONDON. January S.-Pogo, the
first comic pantomime horse, has lost
his front legs. Fred Griffiths, Pogo's
creator and main prop. has retired,
after So years on the stage.
Pogo has appeared over all the
world He has made Queen Mary
rock with laughter. and the King used
10 have him perform at Windsor on
very special occasions. The Prince
of Wales often said he preferred to see
Pogo's equestrian performances TO
sure-enough circus animals.
"Pogo's success said Griffiths,
was largely due to the fact that his
head really looked like horse, while
his body. and feet-well, l was the
forepart. The hind legs were my sons. y
Griffith plans to go to his farm
near Herne- Bay.
I'm keep chickens and milk cows
and things like that instead of anus
