BRITISH PEACE AID
PLEDGED BY KING

BY tbs Associated Press.
LONDON, November q. - King
George, in scene Of historic pageantry
at the opening Of Parliament today,
pledged Britain's continued efforts
toward world disarmament agreement
through the League Of Nations.
1.-The central purpose Of my govern
ment in international affairs" his
majesty declared in inaugurating the
new session, 'is to promote and sustain
by every means In this power peace In
the world.
With this object in view, my gov
eminent viii continue to cooperate
with other governments endeavoring to
reach satisfactory solution of the COM
plicated questions of disarmament In
order to achieve settlement acceptable
to all and to attain fruitful results from
the prolonged labors Of the Disarma-
ment Conference"
Speech Interrupted.
A sensation was created when just as
the King concluded his speech, a
Laborite, ]. McGoyern, cried:
"what about abolition of the means
test and unemployment cuts?"
TITS a shame while people are starv-
ing" McGoyern, who, 1t was recalled,
had been suspended from the House
of Commons on several occasions for
defying speakers rulings continued to
shout.
King George took no notice Of the
interruption. The monarch turned
and, In ceremonial fashion as If MOTH
ing had happened, offered his arm to
the Queen.
Ills majesty had been on the point of
doing this when the Laborite'S shrill
cries, with a marked burr in his Scot
fish accent, broke through the vaulted
Peers chamber.
Assembly Shocked.
The gorgeous assembly seemed stupi-
fed. Peers in their brilliant robes and
peeresses In exquisite gowns and tiaras,
their hands, arms and necks sparkling
with diamonds; foreign Ambassadors
and diplomats In formal uniforms and
court officials and functionaries with
breasts blazing with decorations all
turned eyes toward the glowering La
boriteS.
Several members of the House moved
toward McGovern, but nobody inter-
fered with him.

All Treasury Officials and Workers

Acting Secretary Henry Morgenthau,
ir., moved with surprising swiftness
today to clamp down the lid on all
possible sources Of uncensored news
and information coming from the
Treasury Department.
Following an edict whereby he named
Herbert E. CASTOR, former deputy of
the Farm Credit Administration, to
serve as the first press relations off,
Ger the Treasury has known since the
World War, he later directed today that
all officers and employees of the Treas
ury submit all public addresses they
may make to the press censor in ad-

The dissatisfaction with which the
censorship order was received by the
correspondents assigned to the Treas

patched today to the President at Warm

Some very wild statements arc
being made in the Senate these
days. Senator Thomas of Oklaho-
ma, author of the initiation bill,
who said hat persons who have
money in the savings banks did
not earn it and it should be taken
away from them, also painted i
lurid picture of what he called the
debtor class to whom he intend
ed to give the savings bank money
There are, ''he said, "17,O00,-
900 people in these United State:
who are barefooted. They have
no socks. They have no under
wear. They have no shirts''-bu
at this point the Senator had abou,
reached the limit.

in the country and terrible poverty
but such extreme exaggeration a

merely another "false alarm We
believe that factors have been
brought into play which will put
prices up still higher, until we
reach somewhere near the level of
1926. That is what those in
charge of the nations destinies are
aiming at we are told. That would
mean hat the average of commo-
dity prices would be more than
double present prices, in some in
stances, half to two-thirds higher
in others.
Starting with the products of
agriculture, the rise in prices is
bound to extend to industrial pro-
ducts. For when the farmer be-
gins to get a profit from his opera
lions he can begin to pay us hi:
back taxes. and mortgage interest.
to buy the commodities he and his
family require. Money thus put
into circulation enables others, in
turn, to buy at prices which mean
a profit to the seller. That means
that manufacturers can start up
their factories again.
We have never felt there was
much to the argument that people
have stopped wanting to buy
things. The only reason they have
stopped buying is lack of money
to buy with. There is not and
never has been "overproduction"
in the sense that more commodi-
ties were produced than people
wanted. Our whole social system
is built upon multiplying wants
and as money circulates again peo-
pie will crafty those wants.

SOMEONE WILL BUY IT

1t is not likely that the supersti-

prevent Mrs. Evalyn Walsh Nc

the legend of misfortune, the
diamond has always had an owner.
But whether or not a good price
can be obtained in these days is
another matter. AT any rate, the
Hope diamond will always be one
of the most glamorous gems in the
world. ..

THE MINIMUM WAGE

1t seems, at first glance, a liutlt
confusing to have the employers a.
represented by Gerard Swope, pre-
sident of the General Electic Com
pany, urging a minimum wage
clause in the 30-hour bill and Pre-
sident Green of the American Fed
Grafton of Labor opposing a mini
mum wage.
But the reason is quite plain,
The Federation of Labor represents.
in the main, the skilled trades.
President Green fears that a mini
mum wage, which will benefit
chiefly the unskilled labor, might
lead to a reduction of wages in the
more highly paid-frades
There is a real danger that :
minimum wage may, in the end
develop into a standard wage
Thus, while many low paid work
ers would be benefited, the skillec
workers might lose.

vent combinations and inst

vent combinations and insure
competition.
Everyone who has given the
matter even a little thought real
ICES that the antitrust laws have
not worked as they were expected
to. Competition has proved ruin
Gus in many industries; in the soft
coal industry, for example, where
the owner of a coal mine had to
work it himself if he was to get
anything out of it at all, instead
of combining With ohher mine
owners to produce only as much as
the market would absorb and all
share the profit.
All the signs point to the dis
carding of all regulations prohibit
ing trade combinations and the es-
Enlistment under Government
supervision of groups and associa-
tions of manufacturers and pro-
ducers to fix prices and determine
all other trade conditions.
That is, of course, going to make
it harder for the ordinary man to
get himself established in a. COM
petitive business or industry. 1t
will result in the best men becom-
ing employees insteatd of indie
pendent business men and the less
than best dropping out of sight in
the mass of humanity.
That may be better for the So
cial order, if we conceive that to
be a system under which all hu-
mainly will eventually occupy the
same plane of activity and income,
but | greatly fear hat when we
take any steps to strife the imtia-
tive of the Individual and to limit
his opportunities we will be aban1-
oning the fundamental principle
that has made America what it is.

THE SHAMELESS AT OUR
GATE

We have been spending a lot of
energy sympathizing with the peo-
pie Of China in their troubles with
internal bandits and external enc
mics. A lot of folks are wasting
tears over the fluctuations of some
of the oppressed peoples and races
in various European countries. We
would not wish to be thought I'M
sympathetic with any human trou-
bles, but we have a feeling that
we Americans are overlooking a
sir~,ation .-righr- at ca,=. own f-er=
door which is more serious and
shocking than any of those we have
mentioned.
We refer to the situation in
Cuba. T~hirty-fve years ago the
United States went to war with
Spain for the liberation of Cuba,
because of the tales of horror that
came from that unhappy island.
The Cuban people were being ex-
plotted, cruelty treated, imprisoned
and even killed by the Spanish gov
eminent under Butcher" Weyler.
The sympathy of the whole Ameri-
can people was aroused and we
took Cuba away from Spain and
gave it to the Cuban people.
Cuba has been in constant trou-
bic ever since. Conditions in the
past year Or two have grown SC
grave that even the best friends OF
Cuba are demanding that the Unit
ed States send an army to the is
land to take over the government
and restore order. Under the re,
grne of President Machado, which
amounts to complete one-man die
ztatorship, free speech is prohibited
newspapers have been suppressed
thousands Of persons suspected Of
being opposed to the government
have been openly slain withou'
trial or have mysteriously disap
peared, the nation is bankrupt an<
lawlessness prevails everywhere.
The Government at Washington
has done we'll in sending Sumne
Welles as Ambassador to Cuba. Mr.
Welles is one of the ICE of gu

Americans as few others do. He i
not easy to fool. We hope hat h

Prices have begun to rise. That is
