particulars by the rules of the very
democratic mother of Parliaments.
1t is rarely that any one dares to go
to the extreme of mentioning the
ruler, and had the Laborite Aneurin
Bevan persisted in his critical refer
ence to his sovereign, the speaker Of
the House of Commons presumably
would have suspended the member
and ordered him from the chamber.
In this connection it is held by
British statesmen that the stability of
the empire, with its many races and
creeds. depends in no small measure
on maintaining the sanctity of the
throne. To illustrate the point, one
of the most powerful of the Indian
princes once told the writer that it
was loyalty to the throne, and not to
the British government, which kept
India within the fold, and that the
disappearance of the sovereign would
mean that India would break away.

AT NORFOLK DOCKS
Shipping Continues as New
Men Fill Jobs of Those
Absent.
BY the Associated Press.


NORFOLK, Va, May 3.-Several
hundred dock workers for coastal and
bay steamship lines, mostly col
ored, affiliated with the Industrial
Marine Workers Union, failed to re-
port to work this morning following
refusal of ship operators to accede to
demands for increased wages and
radical changes in working conditions.
The places of the men who failed
to report were being filled, and no
unusual delays in handling ships at
the docks was anticipated, steamship
line officials said.
The lines where men failed to re-
port as usual this morning are:
Merchant & Miners, approximately
100 out; Chesapeake Line, so; Old
Bay Line, so; Philadelphia & Nor
folk Line, so.
All available police officers were
rushed to the Seaboard Air Line Rail-
way piers in downtown Portsmouth
this morning to disperse a group of
200 Marine Workers Industrial Union
strikers. One striker. Marion WASH

building up an organization some

He is Arthur ]. Mellott, firm
mouthed, soft-spoken lawyer from
both Kansas Cities Che practices law
in BOTH, who went on the Federal
pay roll yesterday without benefit OF
title for the present, but, on May
10, will become deputy commissioner
of internal revenue in charge Of a

Its a big one" he conceded in
his first press interview in Revenue
Commissioner Helverings office, but
it will be different from enforcing
prohibition. This time public support
drive, I am certain, and that should
make things easier"
Mellott said that, while details OF
his program are in a formative stage,
he expects to have about 1850 field
agents in his enforcement division
and from $500 to 1000 persons in the
entire organization. In addition to
the enforcement agent, who will con-
centrate on eliminating the boot
logger, illicit distiller and smuggler,
he explained. there will be corps Of
permit inspectors in the field, super
vising licensing and inspection of the
legal liquor industry. The latter will
operate under a separate division, to
be known as the 'permissive divi-
sion"
All personnel of the new unit will
be under Civil Service, Mellott an

The reason for the plan is two-fold.
It's proponents say that In the first
instance it will better living condi-
tions, and in the second will add to
the work available, both through the
actual construction and by increas-
ing the demand for the materials 60

The legislation which Mr.. Roose-
welt Is expected to ask would simply
give him authority to carry out the
program. 1t is understood that no
appropriation would be needed other
than for administrative purposes.
When the survey of housing needs
was started in February by Frank C.
Walker, executive director of the
Emergency Council, three points
were set up as objectives-moderni-

THE GOOD
OLD TIMES
[Bv VIM. E. PALMER.l

W. As
How often we hear the expression,
"the good old days" especially now
that we are going through a depres-
sion. This expression | hear most
every day in u office where men
gather looking for a job or to discuss
the events of the day. | ever fail
to ask them: "When were the good
old days?" The answer is usually:
ooh, some fifteen or twenty years
ago" And fifteen or twenty years
back they were then quoting some
vague time in the past, and | pre-
sumo this has been going on since the
beginning of time.
The goold old timesl There never
was a good old time. Each age is far
better than the preceding one. This
the age of the machine-has thrown
many out of employment, but it has
taken the drudgery out of work. The
short hour day and the shorter work
week will soon take up the slack.
Suppose we go back to the Age OF
Chivalry-when knighthood was in
flower-the 18th Century. What
were the knights actually up to? Ae-
cording to all authentic records they
were robbing and manning travellers,
violating women, and slaughtering any
wretched peasant who tried to protect
his mean flocks from predatory raids.
An endless recital of murder and tor
ture fills the pages of history. They
were generally engaged in civil war.
They preyed upon the innocent. They
were filthy, ignorant, and bloodthir-
sty. Such were the Knights of the
Round Table-yet, they were consid-
cred the Cream of the Age" It's
hard to imagine what the skim milk
was like.
Well, jump 700 years to the time
of Louis XIV of France. Ten million
peasants are tilling the soil of France
baked black by the sun, attached by
invisible chains to the soil which they
dig. They retire at night into dens
where they live on black bread, water
and roots. They were a cross be.

There were twenty-eight separate

Her armies have vanquished Bona

fury. Merry England-but somehow
her great manufacturing cities don't
seem exactly merry. They are over
run with a squirming mass of mill
hands, pallid, understood, anaemic.
In the city of Leeds, 10000 people
lived in rat infested cellars, unprovi-
ded with water, heat, light OF ewers.
A dozen persons sleep, eat, and live
in the same room. Garbage and all
fecal matter are emptied into the
streets. Water, the commonest of
human necessities, is doled out by the
factory which controls the public
pump; three quarts a day serves an
entire family for washing, cooking,
and drinking. Although the open
country lies only two or three miles
away, sunshine and fresh air are not
for the workers. All of rural Eng
land is enclosed by landed %proprietors,
who turn all trespassers owe to the
police.
The English millhand worked eight
teen hours a day and received for his
labor $3.50 a week. His wife work

ceived 25c a day. Children, six years

great mills with foundlings. Their
only stipulation was that they be al
lowed to include one idiot to every

DAIRYMEN ACCEPT
GOVERNMENT PLAN
Producers from Washington, Oregon
anad Northern Idaho Consider Pro-

Washington dairymen, together
with producers of northern Idaho and
Oregon, overwhelmingly approved in
principal the federal governments
plan to reduce dairy production 10 to
20 percent in return for benefit pay
ments paid from a processing tax, at
two-day conference held in Portland
April 9 and 10, according to word re-
ceived by Waldo Skuse, county agent.
After producers had adopted the COM
mittee report 106 to 10, the entire
gathering of producers, distributors
and cooperative representatives voted
unanimously to petition President
Roosevelt to put tax on olemargine
as an additional protection and aid to
the dairy industry.
The committee, based on the rela-
tive dairy production of the states
represented includede five Washing
ton, four Oregon and two Idaho rep
resentatives.
The report was as follows:
l. We recommend the adoption OF
some production control program.

Brewster, Rolls-Royce, Small Car
Also to Use Ford Chassis

The Observation-Disclosures company
of America, manufacturers in the
limited States of the outstanding au-
tomobile of British origin, has just
reached an agreement with the Ford
Motor company, by which the Brew
ster company will build a new line
of cars, in the $500 price class at
the factory, using t he unchanged
Ford V-S motor.
This information has just been re-
ceived by E. C. Smith of the E. C..
Smith Motor company, Kennewick
Ford dealer. ~
According to the information, the
new car will have the Rolls body and
tenders, the Ford chassis heightened
to 1877 inches and the remainder of
the Ford chassis to be standard with
the exception that a booster brake
will be used on the new cars. The
new cars will be built and designed
to compete in the fine car class.
Mr.. Smith said that this arrange
me mt has resulted in a town car, now
produced in it's first units, and that
there will be a four-passenger con-
vertible sedan and convertible coupe
added to the production. The stand
ard Rolls-Royce car, recognized as
one of the worlds finest automobiles,
sells now at $4,000.
