Arms Plans
Affect
For Britain

London, April 9-The question of
Britain's home production of food
stuffs is under review in connection
with the Governments rearmament
plans. Announcement of this by
drawn attention to the fact that the
making of more weapons Of war has
already begun to affect general eco
nomic conditions in Great Britain.
Not only does the question of the
number of cruisers and airplanes ne
cessary to patrol Britain's main
routes of supply throughout the world
depend upon the extent to which the
United Kingdom can itself be rend-
cred self-supporting in respect to food
but the spelling of a large sum of
money upon a particular form of in
dustrial activity concerns many
branches of employment.
Labor Asks Question
Organized LABOR, as represented by
the council of the Trade Union Con-
gress in London, has thus already
approached the Government with the
proglem of how the contemplated
"dilution" of skilled and unskilled
vented from the hurting the prospects
of those hitherto engaged in such in
dustries.
Another manifestation of what has
begun is seen in a boom which-de
spite many official assurances that
profiteering was to be prevented-has
started in armament shares on the
London Stock Exchange. This boom
has afforded a reminder that the po-
Icy of industrial Expansion" long adj
vocated by one school of economists
as an antidote to unemployment, has
begun to become operative though
under conditions much less favor
able to the nation than if the work
provided had been upon enterprises
of a permanently useful kind
Commodity Prices
Much has been heard here in the
past of new slump liable to arise
Whenever present activity in the
building trade should become re-
duced, in consequence of saturation
of the market for new houses, a state
of things generally regarded as i'm
minent. To what extent armament
making may absorb labor thus rend-
cred idle is thus being debated
Another point under discussion is
the effect upon general wholesale
commodity prices, the raising of
which has long been a plank in the
British Governments policy
The view hitherto held in London
official circles has been that an ex-
pansionist policy of public develop
ment would not conduce to such up
ward movement. Now that this policy
has been adopted as regards arma-
ments, the theory is being put to an
actual test, though results are not
expected to become apparent for
some time.

LaGuardia Outlaws
Sale of Liquor To
High School Pupils

New York, April 9.-Establishments
catering to New York City high
schools are warned by Mayor Fiorello
H. LaGuardia that their places will
be closed if they are discovered sell
ing liquor to pupils.
IF you report any place in this
city catering to high school pupils
and soliciting their patronage where
liquor is served, I will have it de-
clared a nuisance and will throw a
Gordon of police around there that
no one will be able to enter" he told
the bureau Of attendance of the Board
of Education at a meeting at the
Waldorf-Astoria Hotel here yesterday.
Even the serving of beer to students
would come under the ban, the Mayor
said.
Mayor LaGuardia laid down another
rule that in the future, cases of tru-
any and improper guardianship due
to poverty would not be taken to the
courts, but would be referred "to pro-
per agencies where constructive work
can be DONE" He declared that NAL
nutrition was one of the main causes
Of truancy, and that in rare instances
only is the child to blame.
"Boys still want to see railroad
yards and watch the wheels of freight
trains go round, and they want to go
to the docks to see the ships, and the
big derrick loading and unloading I'M
der different flags the Mayor said.
II know I do. There's no indication
of any bad tendency of any boys de-
string to see these things. Why can't
regular trips be made to the docks
and the freight yards?"

Election SlaCkers'
In Germany Lose
Jobs As Penalty

Berlin, April German in
dustrial workers who failed to vote
in the March 90 Reichstag elections
felt the stern punishment of the Ma
tional Socialist Party today.
A number of Industrial leaders said
they had received instructions to dis
miss the election slackers," and many
of those who avoided the polls have
been discharged already.
The German Labor Front and the
National Socialist Party organization
called for the dismissals on the
grounds that the nonvorers eliminat-
ed themselves from the labor COM
munity.
Exactly 1 per cent of Germanys
electorate did not vote in the March
20 election, nominally to select a new
Reichstag hut actually to approve
Adolf Hitler's policies, official Ger
man news agency figures showed.
The total number of qualified vot-
ers was 45,431 ,102. Theoretically, there
fore, 454,311 Germans failed to "per-
form their duty as citizens"
This figure, however, included all
who had valid excuses, such as illness,
for not voting when National Social
lists called upon all those who had not
appeared at the polls by noon of the
election day and called upon them to
do so.
1t was impossible to estimate the
number of industrial workers to
whom the election Sanctions" were
applicable.

THIRD PARTY REAL
1910 POSSIBILITY
John l. Lewis Labor Move
ment Most Likely Focus
for Building
Nv CHARLES p. STEWART

washington, April 9. = While this
does not appear to be the right year
Cor q new political party to make
r,uch of a start, if any, there are
s;ons of the birth of a new one in time
80 make d formidable showing in
1910.
In fact. John L. Lewis declaration
that he is unwilling to support a
,ohor party movement during the
coming campaign strongly implied
that he may be willing to do so four
wears hence. Any movement to
which the United Mine Workers
president finally does give his sup
port unquestionably will be move
ment of plenty of Importance; moth
ing in which Lewis takes an influ
entail part is to be regarded other
wise than seriously.
If such a party does evolve itself
Il probably will be a farmer-labor
marty rather than exclusively labor
party.
SWING AN ELECTION?
When Lewis launched his fight for
the reorganization of labor out of
craft and into broad industrial units
il Immediately was apparent that
setup of the type he contemplates
could not long keep out of partisan
ship, as the A. F. of l.. always has
succeeded in doing.
And that he is progressing rapidly
with his industrial unioniZation pro-
gram is obvious.
If he attains his expected 80 to 40
million membership Gin all indus
tries) and if the outfit votes as a
unit and if the farmer then are add
cd to his alignment-can he swing an
election?
FARMERS INDIVIDUALISTIC
l have no doubt Lewis will effect
unionization, maybe not to the inn
mediate tune of 80 or 40 millions, but
running into substantial figures.
I'm not so sure of the farmers;
they are an individualistic crew.
Still, it is conceivable. There is
farmer-labor party already, with
senator, a quarter of a dozen repre-
sentatives and a governor - a nu-
cleus, for as high-powered an organ
izer as John l.. Lewis.
Yet even Lewis cannot assemble a
majority of Americas votes on too
exceedingly short notime. A couple
of years probably is none too long
an estimate. for his consolidation of
industrial unionism, plus a year or
two longer to annex the farmers.
Lewis account is that he is salts
fled for the present with President
Roosevelt and wants to re-elect him
after which he will have mo COM
mtments."
My own guess is that he does not
deem the time ripe for a third party.
1t isn't.

The Cook County organization,
which runs Democratic politics in

Henry Horner and Endorsed DR.
Herman N. Bundesen, for years
head of the State Health Depart
ment. Mr.. Horner, who went down
the line for the New Deal, has
made a good Governor, it is con-
coded, but he became unpopular
because of his 3-cent sales tax and
because he was curt with some of
the bosses.
DR.. Bundesen is a sort of DR.

Every mother in Illinois, upon the
birth of a child, gets nice note

slightly furnished spoon of Abraham
Lincoln idealism-and what do you
have?
A strange political cocktail known
as Illinois, the same old Illinois to-
day as ever.
Knox Upholds Tradition
Usually there is a presidential
candidate. This year it is Col
Frank Knox, who runs q big news
paper here. An energetic crusader
against the New Deal, he already
has stumped nearly the whole
country and still is going. Where
ever he goes he leaves the memory
of vibrant personality, and an or
ganization to carry on.
What names do you remember in
Illinois politics Of the last decade
or so?
Len Small, twice Governor, who
was forced by civil suit to pay
$650,000 for allegedly withholding
interest on state funds; Big Bill
Thompson of the cowboy hat and
the checkerboard vest, the mayor
who kept King George out of Chi
cago; Fred Lundin, who was Big
Bills Warwick; former Senators
Otis F. Glenn and Charles Deneen
all these, no doubt, you recall.
They are all stirring about again.
Small Out for Governorship
Len Small, still a warrior at "a,
has announced for Governor; Fred
Lundin has petition signed by
some 100000 people who say they
will vote against President Roosevelt
and Democrats generally, and he is
looking for business; the two former
Senators are thinking about run
ming against the pink-whiskered
Senator Jim Ham Lewis, and no one
knows what Big Bill is up to, If
anything.
They are all Republicans, each
with his little faction and following.
The fact that they are all busy,
that each is trying to outwit or
trade with the other, is the best
index of the disorganized state of
the Republican Party today in I'LL
nois and is one reason for the
claims of Democrats that they will
put Mr.. Roosevelt and their state
ticket over in November.
Republicans dispute this with
claims that the President is losing
ground daily and it is true that in
dustrial and business bitterness
against the New Deal is we'll repre-
sented in this Midwest industrial
belt.

headquarters here.

of this state are still for President
