Macdonald Group EmcrCes From : Hour Debate With Majority of

London, May 29 (Up) - Britain $ labor government today faced the future with restored confidence after a fatigung but definite victory in the house of commons on its unemploy- ment policy.
 The government successfully wcathcred another crisis in commons last night when, after seVn hours of heated debate. it emerged with a majority of 29 votes against the con- servative motion to reduce the salary Of J. H. Thomas, lord privy seat and official minister of unemployment
 Had the motion been adopted, 1t would have amounted 10 a vote of censurc of the governments unem- ploymcnt policy. But it was refused by majority almost double the ad- vantage given Premier J. Ramsay Mcdonald on the same motion last week.

Consolidation of counties, lessen
ing of government cost is new cry
and a practical one. Good roads,
automobiles, telephones have lessen
ed distances, the cost of governments
increases, then why not consolidate
or merge county divisions and lessen
taxation? Bigger and fewer coun-
ties" has become a slogan in some
of the states. Tennessee is the first
to put the plan into practice. "Our
system of county government is cost
ing more than it is WORTH" states
Prof. Burr, of the University of
Missouri. Tennessee is no excep-
ton, to the rule, for the aggregate
cost Of its IS counties is 10 times as
great as the cost Of the State govern
ment." In Tennessee the first con-
solidation of counties was that of
James County and Hamilton County
Taxes are now about one-half of
those levied before consolidation,
schools and roads are better.

Seventy-three and six-tenths per
cent of the proceeds from the gas
tax was used for State highways in
1929, while 1854 per cent went to
local governments, according to H. M.
Lucius, secretary of the Automobile
Cub of !. Maryland, which is affiliated
with the American Automobile Asso-
citation.
Mr.. Lucius bases his statement on
a report received from the A. A. A.
research department, which states
that 1915, 1877, 600 of the $431, 636, 454
collected from the gas tax in 1929
went to State bodybuilding agencies.
"At the present time," he contin-
ued, "seven different methods are
used in the twenty-four States which
returned some portion of the gasoline
tax receipts to local government
units.
Mr.. Lucius said motor-car regis
tration has gained steadily as the
basis of distribution. Nine of the
twenty-four States use this method.

Valuable Rubber Tree
Executive Department

The latex of Euphorbia intisy,
which flows from any cut in the plant.
coagulates in the air without further
treatment. The bands of rubber thus
formed are Of very high quality. This
shrub or small tree Is native to NADIA
gascar and with its discovery in 1891
and the following commercial exploit
tation the plant has been almost ex-
terminated. The United States De
partment Of Agriculture has secured
specimens and is experimenting with
them in hope of adapting this re-
markable rubber tree to growth in this
country.

There is one bright ray Of hope
that has been generally overlooked
in all the pessimistic discussion of
the business depression. The cost
of living is now six per cent lower
than it was last year at this time and
is at the lowest point since 1918.
In other words, general wages could
have dropped more than five per
cent without affecting the buying
power of the worker.
Also, it has been brought out by a
number of experts that the employ
ment trend, which was downward
for close to year, has taken an up
ward turn. The coming winter will
very probably see Industrial activity
improving.
