STARTS ON JOB
OF REBUILDING
BRITISH CABINET
Macdonald to Confer With
Leaders; Tariff Step Is
Imminent.
BY WEBB MILLER
United Press STAFF Correspondent


LONDON, Oct. 3O.-Premier J.
Ramsay Macdonald proceeded with
the reconstruction of his cabinet to-
day, preparatory to balancing Brit
aims budget and taking up the i'm
portant international matters of
lebts and reparations.
The cabinet officers and other
members of the government already
have surrendered their portfolios to
the prime minister, but will con-
tinue in Office pending the cabinet
revision. Macdonald will confer
with Stanley Baldwin, Conservative
leader, and Sir Herbert Samuel,
National Liberal, again next week,
but it vas doubtful if the cabinet
would be announced before parlia-
ment meets Tuesday to elect a
speaker and swear in the members
for the formal opening Nov. 10.
The cabinet Tuesday probably will
appoint committee to examine
the whole question Of the trade
balance, including a possible tariff.
If tariff is decided on, its intro
duction before the end Of the year
is regarded as unlikely.
The kings speech opening parlia-
ment Nov. 10 may be one of the
briefest in recent years, touching
only sketchily on proposed legisla-
ton, which will be left to the gov
eminent to work out carefully.
Parliament probably will be in
session only three weeks before re-
cesSing for the holidays.
: There seemed little doubt that
Britain will be in the forefront of
any move for international confer
enceS on war debts and the gold
problem, although there will be no
decision on any important inter
national question until after the
cabinet reconstruction.

FORD COMPANY
EXPLAINS SLASH
OF WAGE SCALE
Reveal Hike q Months AGO
Boosted Pay Rolls About
$35,176,000.
BIZ United Press

DV LWttEH IfeSH
DETROIT, Oct. 30.-The Ford
Motor Company, in a formal state
ment issued today announcing its
wage reductions, said that the in
crease in basic pay granted twenty
TWO months ago by Henry Ford had
increased his normal pay roll total
$35,176,000.
The reduction in the basic pay
was from 81 to Sc, the system of
automatic raises to employees was
readjusted, and the probationary
rule by which man has been hired
at SIS a day during a six months
period has been abandoned, the
statement said.
THE Ford Motor Company" read
the statement, added an emergency
dollar to it's wage rate, increasing
its minimum from Sc to 81 a day
on Dec. l, 1929. Proportionate in
creases were made to every employe
in every plant.
During the twenty-five months,
this emergency rate was in opera
ton, the increased wage has cost
the company $35, l76,101. Total pay
rolls for the last twenty-five
months amounted to 1897, 442 1877.
THE shops three weeks ago re-
turned to the Sc day minimum for
ordinary labor, grading upwards in
the more skilled jobs.
AT present, the company has en-
ployment only for men who are on
its rolls"
The worlds largest automobile
manufacturers pay roll thus was
revealed as an average of about
Sl8,000,000 monthly during the last
two years. If the Ford pay roll does
not exceed 100000 men that would
be an average pay of $3.50 month
for Ford employees and officials.

MYTH announcement of George
| w Dale, mayor of Muncie, that
he will be a candidate for the Dem
ocratic nomination for Governor on
a one-sentence platform, Turn the
rascals out and restore the govern
ment to the people" he becomes the
second avowed candidate in the
field
The other is Ward Hiner, Indian
apolis bus operator, who seeks the
Governorship as an independent.
If nothing else, Dale's campaign
is to be one of epigrams based upon
actual truths. He also declares
he will save the taxpayers thou
sands of dollars by the few follow
ing simple reforms.
IF L am elected" he declared
while on a visit to the state house,
Il will abolish the state tax board
and appoint Harry Miesse, secretary
of the Indiana Taxpayers ASsocia-
ton and representative of the New
York Central Railroad, to serve in
the place Of the three present men,
bers.
"All the cuts made by the state
board are based on figures and sta
tistics compiled by Miesse, anyhow,
and figure what the saving would
be in the salaries of the three COM
missioners, their aids and secre-
taries
And then look what a pleasure
everybody would have in walking
across the corridor to the Governors
Office and listen to him fire Miesse.
Then 1 would abolish the public
service commission and appoint
Robert Feustel, manager of the In
sull utilities in Indiana, to replace
the members.
From all indications, he is rum
ming the commission anyhow, and
there would be another great saving
in the salaries of the five commits
sioners, their secretaries and stats
Of engineers" he charged.
when I would get through with
the state commissions and boards,
a bungalow would be big enough to
house the state Offices and officials
What we need in Indiana is
return to home rule" says Dale.
THE officials elected by the peo-
pie in the various localities are the
ones who should say what the tax
rate should be and how the utilities
should be regulated, instead of a
bunch of office holders appointed by
the Governor, who soon finds that
they are not responsible to him, but
to the private corporations and in
tereSts."
Dale is full of his grievances
against the tax board for cutting
the Muncie city levy to SO cents.
After "cussing out" the state COM
missions and his own city council,
! he declared:
LAS master of ceremonies follow
ing my Inauguration. it will be my
pleasure to change the state house
ballad from Hail, Hail, the Gangs
All Here to Home, Sweet Home
and make EN- sing it on the run"
And he voiced the prophecy that
''Hoosiers will see the situation my
way before the next campaign is
over"

TAX FIGHT TO COURT
City Determined to Avoid

City officials, led by Mayor Regi-

city legal department, will go to
court in their fight to restore the

recently sliced from the civil city
tax levy.
This was announced today by Ed
ward H. Knight, city corporation
counsel, who has spent several days
studying possible legal redress from
the tax boards decision.
Reminded that the Marion county
circuit court upheld the city's levy
request against reduction of l cent

COMING OF CHRIST
is BELIEVED NEAR
Miss ChristabeI Pankhurst
Believes Millennium Not
Far in Future.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, March 19.--Miss Chris
label Pankhurst, daughter of Emmeline
Pankhurst, noted British militant suf-
fragist of the last generation, believes
that the second coming of Christ is at
hand
She is confident it will occur in her
lifetime-that she will actually see him.
Her faith, she said today, is based on
the fulhllment of prophecies first ut
tered bv Moses and reiterated through
the Bible to the end of Revelations.
Miss Pankhurst does not hold with
those who believe the temperance VIII
mean the end of the world, but she eX-
poets it to be dramatic enough so that
there can be no doubt of his identity.
Expects Reign of Peace.
1.-TWO thousand years ago." she said,
HE came in poverty and weakness ana
humility. But this time He will descend
to the earth in ali His majesty, with
demonstrations of divine power more
miraculous than any of the miracles OF
modern science"
Rather than violence and destruction.
Miss Pankhurst believes, the return OF
Christ will mark the beginning of a
millennium of perhaps a thousand
years in which He will rule the world
an age of such peace and progress and.
splendor as the earth has never seen.
But His coming may occur, she thinks
during another World War in which,
because of the advance of modern war
fare. the destruction Of the human race
will appear to be imminent. TINS, she
said today, is foretold repeatedly IN
the Bible.
ForetOld in Bible.
Chiefly in the unrest which she sees
in the present age-crin1e, wars. rumorS
of wars. economic depression, political
upheavals rebellion against authority,
fear in the hearts of men-does Miss
Pankhurst recognize fulflllment OF
prophecies uttered many centuries ago.
Its all there in the Bible, foretold
in the old testament and the new" she
averred.
Il see the fulfllment of a prophecy,
too, in the desire of the Jews to return
to Palestine. Even Moses, leading the
children Of Israel into the promised
land, told them they should be scattered
for many centuries but that they should
return--for the millennium"
More striking and specific prophecies
have been fulfilled, Miss Pankhurst said
prophecies whose fulfillment she sees
in the development of our machine age
Devotes Life to Preaching.
even in the old testament it was
foretold that in the last days chariots
of fire would jostle each other in the
streets" she said, 'and all through the
Bible are references to a time when
man shall fly through the air."
With her mother, Miss Pankhurst
went through many hard-fought cam
paigns in her girlhood.
But when we got the vote" she
said, Il had TO face the realization that
We had not yet found the millennium

At first, she said, she was tinid about
