PAGE EIGHT DLE WILION 5 MENACE T0 GREAT BRITAIN Government Spending Hundreds of Millions but Solution Is Not in Sight for Labor Problem By AUSTIN WEST (United Prss Staff Correspondent.) LONDON, (By Mail.)\—According to Gigures issued by the Ministry of Labor today there are 1,143,300 registered unemployed in Britain—and they are still climbing. The unemployed barometer has taken several big jumps during the last few months. At the middle of October the number of men and wo- men registered at the employment ex- changes was 350,000; by the middle of November it was 473,000; by the mid- die of January 842,000, and now they are well over the millicn mark. ‘These figures do not take into so- count the thousands of unemployed who haye not registered at the gov- ernment bureau. If these were inciud- ed, it is estimated that the number would be swelled to a million nud a quarter. Nor are they inclusive, the people working on septematic or short time, estimated at 600,000. The latter are chiefly made up of cotton operatives and government employees at dockyards, etc. Optimistic officials of the ministry of labor believe the peak hus been reached, but the labor members of par- liament lean to the belief that the situ- ation will be decidedly worse before the turn is reached. Realizing this the government is grappling with the problem with the primary object of stemming the tide. So far the government has been chiefly concerned in efforts to absorb. tens of thousands of ex-service men into the industrial fabric by propagan- da and appeals to employers. The ex- pected avalanche of unemployment of all classes, however, has made it im- perative to create state-aided schemes, "These wereexplained by the Minister of Labor, Dr. Macnamara. According to Macnamara, at least 70,000 men have been found employ- ment on public works, The expendit- ures authorized for these schemes is practically $100,000,000. In addition to that, and in the di- rection of mitigating hardship, an amendment to the unemployment in- surance act has added 8,000,000 to the 4,000,000 persons insured. A further extension of the out-of-work donation to ex-service men, has been granted, involving an additional expenditure of $25,000,000, making in all, since the armistice, $200,009,000 to ex-service men, and $110,000,000, out-of-work do- nation for civilians during the first year after the armistice. One of the chief bones of contention between the government and the trades unions is the persistent refusal of the builders to prmit dilution of skilled labor by employment of un- skilled ex-servicemen. There is not an unemployed bricklayer. in the country and work could immediately be found for 100,000 men, resulting in employment being provided for painters, plumbers, laborers, etc. In the face of these facts the 50,000 ex- service men are forced to remain idle. "The tendency here for some time has been to regard every trade as a close preserve and is a restricted market to force up wages by means of strikes. |_ Last year alone 27,000,000 days of work were lost owing to strikes. ‘The Labor Party so far has failed to suggest a cure for unemployment. ‘Leader Clynes of the party declares it is up to the government to -devise means for maintenance or work, and that some steps should be taken to restore international trade. Whatever the causes, the present crisis is causing widespread misery in the country, and the out-of-work dona- tions and other government doles are generally looked upon as being merely palliatives. MIAN CLAIMS JAW WAS FANGTURED BY KICK CHEYENNE, Wyo., March 21.—W. C. Edmistin, a railroad switchman, is under bond to appear for hearing on a charge of aggravated assault and bat- tery, and Loren A. MacKelvey, an electrician, is in the hospital with his lower jaw fractured in two places, as the result of a fight which followed the collision of automobiles driven by the two men. It is alleged that Mac- Kelvay’s jaw was shattered by a kick while’ he was lying on the ground. me In some parts of China jars are placed on the roofs of houses as mat- rimonia! advertisements. A jar turn- ed upside down means that the daugh- ter of the house is too young to mar- ry. A jar laid with its mouth to the street indicates that the maiden is of age. When the girl is married the jar_is removed. | | Right to left, ski, former premier of Poland. BlG WIRELESS TOBE ERECTED IN THs STATE Postoffice Department Plans Im- provement for Cheyenne or Rock Springs to Aid Aerial Mail , March 21.—A wireless station of sufficient radius to communicate with the “seven seas” ts to be established in Wyoming, at either Rock Springs or Cheyenne, by the Postoffice department, in connection with the air mail service. That is, the station will be utilized by the air mail service but its primary purpose, itis said, is to complete a system of wireless stations across the continent which may be of inestimable value to the nation in time of war. The Wyo- ming station will ‘be the chief relay station between New York and San Francisco and will be equipped for both wireless telegraphy and wireless telephony. The air mail now has two wireless. stations in this state, one here and the other at Rock Springs, which under favorable atmospheric conditions are able to communicate with stations as far away as Hawaii. ate European market.
