DEFENDS DOLE
TO UNEMPLOYED

LOS ANGELES, Feb. 8. U.p, -
Defense of Great Britain's dole sys.
TEN whereby unemployed men are
given small weekly allowance for
food and shelter, was given by Ais
ter Mac Donald, son Of the English
rrime minister, at 4 mass meeting
here last night.
Speaking in Labor temple, young
Macdonald, who is here to study
architecture of Hollywood sound
studios, declared that if England
could afford to pay 100000 pounds
day for war and postwar debts,
it could afford to pay a fraction of
that amount for "dole."

fies the dole system on grounds that
her unemployed must be kept
healthy and in condition to work
when industrial conditions become
stabilized.
Relief Of existing widespread un-
employment in England will come,
Mae Donald said, only with exten-
sion of foreign trade.
The speaker praised willingness of
nations to discuss naval disarma-
ment, whether conference efforts
prove successful or not, and saw
i'll the London meeting promise of
