LABOR IN ENGLAND CHEATED OF ISSUE Government’s Support of Sanctions Splits Up Party’s Leaders. BY A. G. GARDINER, England’s Liberal Editor. LONDON, October 7.—All talk of a November election has subsided. The | Italian crisis has vetoed that. If there has been discussion in the government on the policy to be pur- sued or if public opinion had been substantially hostile to that policy, there would have been strong grounds for an appeal to the electorate. But the cabinet is unanimous and the coun- | try is overwhelmingly behind its de- termination to stand by the League| of Nations covenant. MYSTIC MUSIC. OT tunes were floating through the air at Fourteenth street and Pennsylvania avenue, but nobody seemed to know where they came from. The music was played on a piano and sounded very near. There were no amplifiers around; it didn't seem to be a radio. Very puzzling. 0 | 8 THE.

Miss Mary Lynn McCulloch has been ap- pointed readers’ adviser in charge of the students’ reading room. There she has assembled a choice selection of the best literature in adult books which would have a special appeal for those in the adolescent years. On the opening night she and other assistants in the library watched un- obtrusively to see which of these books seemed to appeal to the young people. They were amazed to find that one book took predominance and received constant attention, was not allowed to remain on the shelf a min- ute at a time, and that most of the | evening there were several waiting| their turn to browse in it.

SEVERAL members of the United States Supreme Court are eligible, on the basis of age, to retire to rest and meditation. Their attitude toward such a procedure, however, is indicated by an incident growing out the need of one of them for a new secretary. He appealed to a friend for help in locating a bright young lawyer for the post, but noticed a lack of en- thusiasm on the friend’s part. In- quiring, he was told that there was some reticence about recommending such a position to a young man in view of the justice’s age and likeli- hood of his retirement soon. ‘The justice laughed: “You needn’t worry about any of us retiring in these days,” he answered. “The present administration is keep- ing us too busy.” * ok K % PRODIGAL RETURNS.

The split in| the ranks of labor in regard to the application of sanctions has shattered, temporarily at all events, any hope that the party had of returning to| power. Labor Always for League. Officially labor has always been the | stoutest pillar of the League of Na- | tions structure and at its meeting at Margate it declared decisively in fa- vor of the application of sanctions. It did this despite the fact that it put| labor in the position of backing the | government on a cardinal issue. It had been one of its chief indict- ments of the government that it had not pressed for League of Nations action against Japan in Manchuria, and Sir Stafford €ripps, leader of the extreme wing of the party, said two overalls, who pounded out snappy symphony as the truck rolled along. x ok ox % SO HE SAYS.
