Position Precafious.

yielding to their Just demands
Position Precarieus.
While the expression, "the whole East
Is ablaze," may be too strong, there Is
no doubt that the position OF Great
Britain in the Middle East Is extremely
precarious, and the Labor government,
which has made the cause OF subject
races one of the most important points
in the party's program, may be forced
to take against these races AZ drastic
measures as any Tory government would
be in order to preserve-to use Prime
Minister Macdonald's own words
that great inheritance, the empire"
The situation within the United
Kingdom 10 very serious, too. The nun-
Der of unemployed has increased sub
stantially since last year. There are
this country and there seems to be no
immediate means Of reducing the figure.
The troubles in India have virtually
ruined the cotton industry.
Today the Department Of Commerce
publishes trade returns indicating that
there has been the worst slump in ex-
ports and imports in the last eight
and q half years. There has been q
fail In imports, compared with last
April, of $40, SOC, 900. and q fall Of $52,-
900 900 In British exports. The fall in
imports Is very significant because It
indicates that the country Il using few
or raw materials than last year.
Imports Of cotton have fallen by
$4,000, 900 and wool by $21 900, 900,
while imports Of manufactured articles
and foodstuffs have increased Substan-
TALLY.
Exports Decrease.
7 Exports Of the world-famous British
steel, cotton and wooden products have
fallen considerably since last year, az
illustrated by the Board of Trade re-
turns.
Compared with the corresponding
period in 1929, Great Britain has ex-
ported so far this year $1,000, 900 worth
less Of iron and steel, e21 900 900 less
in cotton and S4,500, 900 less Of woolens,
while In every one of the 40 main
classifications into which the Official
returns are divided, British exports
show decline.
What and whether anything ct all
can be done to improve this situation
Is q matter that keeps the labor min
listers worried. They are able 70 ex-
plain to the rank and file Of the party
that there 10 o serious depression
throughout the world, which neither
the United States nor Germany has
been able to avoid, but that IL only
