- Britain’s ‘Cowardice’ May Keep World Peace In Mystery Cabin Killing Tight Little Island Refuses to Be Drawn Into Petty Word Squabbis By DEWITT M’KENZIE Press (Associated Foreign Affairs Writer) New York, Nov. 4 — The British government is going through one ot its periodical man-handlings in the house of commons by its opposition, which alleges dangerous owardice in foreign policy and has laid down a motion expressing lack of confidence tu the ministry. The occasion is the customary de- bate on the speech from the throne at the opening of the new session of the “Mother of Parliaments.” A motion expressing lack of con- fidence came from the main opposi- tion, the Laborites, through thew leader, Herbert Morrison. The labor chief charged the government with pursuing a policy of isolation and running the risk of drifting into a “first class war against a first class power.” Morrison also asserted that Premier Chamberlain “is a man possessed with crude mercantile class outlook.” The speaker was referring to the fact that the premier comes from a manu- facturing family and probably also to Chamberlain’s thrifty economic poli- cies. The unkindest cut, however, came from David Lloyd George. The war- time premier declared that the Rri:- ish empire is menaced by Musso- lini’s operations in Spain and the Mediterranean, Lloyd George taunted the govern- ment with being yellow and nov standing up to I] Duce. While these pleasantries were be- ing bandied about the house of com- mons, Mussolini was making a speech in which he demanded the return of Germany's pre-war colonies. He also called for a revision of world- war peace treaties. This brought Win- ston Churchill, famous British states- man, from his seat in commons to tell the world in substance that the Gec- man colonies were none of Signor Mussolini's business.

She must protect that, but there has been no indication that she has sacrificed anything thus far, despite all the! sabre-rattling. What she cannot afford to do is to allow herself to be drawn into more| or less petty squabbles by words or acts which are aggravating but whicn present no threat to the security or even the dignity of Britain. Thus the so-called “cowardice” with which she is charged is held by many disinterested statesmen to be a virtue. It may be the thing that will prevent another world war.

Class A motor carriers argued the old rate on uncrated furniture was too low because of the great care that must be exercised in protecting the goods from breakage or marring by contact with other goods in the load. They contended that in the trans- portation by truck unusual expenses are incurred because of the pick-up and delivery afforded by the car- riers due to the number of extra men required for loading, the time con- sumed in loading and unloading and the expense of maintaining proper pads for the protection of goods in transportation. é Counties Worry Over Resettled Farmers Fargo, N. D., Nov. 4.—Who will in- herit the farmers who are being placed on the rural resettlement farms in Cass and Traill counties if the Farm Security administration de- cides to move them off the farms at the conclusion of their five-year con- tracts and they should then become county charges?
