 London, June 5 LR-For the sec- ond time in the history of Great Britain the reins of government to- day were in the hands of the labor party.
 Ramsay Macdonald. whose party won so extraordinary 8 victory in last weeks general election, emerg- ing with the largest membership in the house of commons, visited King George at Windsor Castle today and accepted His Majesty's invitation to form a government.
 Only 24 hours previously Stanley Baldwin, conservative prime minis- ter for the past five years. had visit ed the kings sick room in Windsor Castle and had rendered his resigna- ton.
 Step in Remarkable Career
 When MT. Macdonald accepted the invitation to form new gov ernment, it was the second time he had been called upon to assume that task and marked an impressive mo- ment in one of the most remarkable careers in British politics. From poverty and obscurity, he had risen in the past quarter century to head the British government once and now to be asked to head 1t again.
 The British labor leader, excori- ated and defeated for parliament 10 years ago for his opposition to the war, had succeeded in winning back a seat to parliament in 1922. Today the party of which he is leader holds 2Ss votes in the commons. while the conservatives hold 256. and the liberals 5S, with seven scattered among other parties.

 BOwman's Address
 Speaking on "The New Trade School Plan," MT. Bowman said:
 ''The Declaration of Independence was designed to give men liberty through self-government. Since 1776 improvements in the process of manufacturing have remade our civ- ilization. Ideals of education that were proper for the lords and ladies of England do not fit in modern in- dustrial America. Since the power of democracy lies in the ability of each citizen to decide political ques- tions for himself. so we found that in mass education alone was the future hope of America. Not only

 Inquiries to the authorities at the Cape Cod canal revealed that no such craft had passed through there this morning and it was assumed that unless the k21025 had made port in some secluded harbor along the coast, it was headed for either Boston or the North Haven, Me, home of the Morrows.
