GEORGE HITS
PRESENT REGIME
Tells Liberal Conference
Their Party Is Due to
Gain in Elections.

Ey the Associated Press.
GREAT YARMOUTH, England, Oc-
tober 12.-Addressing the Liberal Fed
Grafton Conference today, former Pre-
mier Lloyd George made three predic-
tons in connection, with the general
election next year:
There would be an overwhelming ma
jority of votes in condemnation of the
present government:
There would be an enormous Access
sion of strength to the Liberal fold, and
Whatever the party was that was in
the majority it would not be Socialistic.
Lloyd George then dealt with the
possibility of a deadlock in the next
Parliament. saying:
THE Socialists have already made
clear that under no conditions will
they be associated or cooperate or
enter any pact or understanding with
the Liberals unless they swallow So
cialism, horns. hoofs and all. We say
at once We are not there and we never
shall be there unless we cease to be
Liberals. We are neither Socialists nor
Tories. but Liberals, and as such we
are equally opposed TO both and have
no particular preference for either"

WELFARE PROGRAM
Club Suggests Schools and
Proper disqualification for
Crippled Children.

A far-reaching resolution urging Con-
greSS. District authorities and civic or
CARNATIONS to support program for
the establishment of special school
here for crippled children and adequate
disqualification for children needing it,
in addition to other facilities to care for
the city's crippled and health pupils. was
adopted by the Kiwanis Club at a
luncheon meeting in the Hotel Wash
ington yesterday.
All citizens associations and other
civic organizations will be asked to
adopt resolution prepared by Radford
Moses, president of the club, and James
B. Evans. chairman of the orthopedic
committee, with this object in view. AS
an initial move toward this end special
communications have been sent to the
president of each citizens association
and other civic groups.
Further Aid Suggested.
The resolution asks that in addition
to the establishment of special school
Tor crippled children that an inStitu-
ton adjacent to the Gallinger Munich
pal Hospital be established for the hos
pitalization of crippled children in
order that prolonged hospital cases, for
which there is no provision In the Dis
| trict at the present time, may receive
institutional care.
With respect to the special school,
the resolution also proposes that a bus
| system Is established in connection with
the transportation of crippled children
and that two physiotherapists be en-
ployed in order that daily or bi-weekly
massage treatments may be given
| crippled pupils in the school, with the
loss of as little time as possible.
Inadequate Schools Cited.
The resolution further recommends
that the Board of Education, the vari-
Gus other school officials. the District
health officer, District Commissioners
and Congress take such steps as are
necessary to remedy any Objectionable
| features in the present school system
| particularly in reference to the "in-
adequate means" at present for caring
| for the city's crippled and health pupils
Mr. Evans declared there are many
| crippled children in the District who
are not receiving the benefit of the
proper education. Some of them, he
said, are able to keep up in their studies
! but consequently are being retarded
physically by lack of time and Oppor-
| tunity to receive medical treatment
| He added there are 81 cities in the
United States that have schools com
bining education with the necessary
daily physical treatment exclusively fol
the care of crippled children.

POsTOFFICR DEFICIT

SQuaring the books for the fiscal year the Postoffice Department finds there is a deficit of nearly $29,OOO,- 900. There are those who, dead set against anything the govern ment does, will grab on to this com ing out behind as a proof that the government management of any thing is inefficient, tardy and woe fully costly. Very well, let's look a little into this deficiency matter. We'll take 1926 because we have the cost of operation for that year The total deficit for 1926 was about 38,000,000 The government lost in the handling of second class mail alone $83,OOO,OOO. The govern ment spent $117,OOO,0OO transport ing, sorting, distributing and de- livering the newspapers that you get and are supposed to read It got but $34,OOO,O0O for the job The actual profits in the Postoffice Department were $73,OOO,OOO but magazines and newspapers turned a profit into a loss. Really, the government subsidizes newspapers, magazines and other publications. It enables you to get news and views cheaply even though it cost Uncles Samuel more than $8O,OOO,- 900 annually. The government will transport and deliver, for instance, 800 copies of THE ALASKAN to all points of the U. s. and territories each week for 50 cents. Let us see the private institution that would even attempt anything like that.
