Volstead ac BRITISH LABORITES Politics More Muddled as Rumors of Mergers Are Heard London, Jan. 7.—The Daily Herald, labor organ, today gives notice to a vague rumor that a section of the lib- eral party has agreed to act with the conservatives in maintaining the pres- ent government. The Herald says: “Whether labor takes the govern- | ment depends upon the success of this' latest angle, which must be taken more seriously than TLord Rother- mere's feverish demands that some- body shall save his millions from the capital levy.” The reference is to the Daily Mail's campaign in favor of a lberal-con- servative fusion to keep labor out of power. The M. P.’s of the country are flocking to London today preparatory to the reassembly of the house of commons tomorrow. SCOND CHRI Claims That sues Representative Jones Congress Is Beclouding Jan.
