Had the Industrial tie up in Piiglaud hecti permitted to spread we should hnve heard n great deal of passionate leerlmiiintinti on both sides and teilerati'd charges of oppression and ilislovaltv Noisy nnd bitter criticism would continue tn obscure an underlying condition that for almost n jear has tried the smil nf the box eminent and the souls of the workers in I'liglaml 'I he temporal' parallels of the industrial life nf P'ifnpe. inequalities of litinneial ex change nnd attendant uncertainties in all lines of business, brought upon u great conn irv wearnil by war the additional nlTlli lions nf widespread idleness nnd, finally, this threat of tudiistilnl chaos. In u crisis ot this sort ft w men can be temperate or wholl. just. Hut to talk of levolutlonarj plotting ami nf ImMirxism in Kiigland is to miss ultogether the significance of the strike. In the background are the usual hordes of profiteers' who managed to keep living costs nt a high level, even while innumerable artificial and temporary restrictions of trade and (Miiincrcc compelled many of the larger imploviiig groups to choose between bank riiplev ami a policy of xvidespread wage re iliutiMif. There probnblx are fexx men In the llinish tioxernment or among the trades union leaders who do not earnestly wish to bring the whole question "f labor nnd wage readjustments to n peaceful settlement. Now the strike has been called and it will have tragic aspects no mntter what the out i onie mm lie. Should the trade unions forie the government into an altitude of surieiulcr, the prestige nf the whole governmental order in Ptiglnnd will be seriously impaired and iinpiiiieil at a time when it needs the con tinuing respet t and coiifulenee of all people at home mid ahiond. Should the government, with the aid of xnlunteers ami the militnr.x establishment, uierwhelni the strikers ill ii war of lockouts ami general attrition, it will have achieved a vhtor.v of force rather than it xlctor.v of logic ami reason It will win nt the cost nf pulling powerful nnd conscmitivc Inline srmips a well as Ihc mure indlenl ones, in l In- iiilcgorj of outlaws mul opponents of the state. Itoth sides are therefore in a false light, since llrit i-ili labor is essentiall.x temperule iiiliuled ami the government In its lclntimis witli the unions lias been e.sentiallv liberal I'leiiuer l.lojil (tPorgp mul the union lemh-is weie caught between the dexil of prollteeiiug ami tlie iliep sen of hard times, mul tln-x were forced against their will into on ti loullill. lii ever? sid0 there was misunderstanding and suspicion instead of frank and open negotiations. There was drift. The unions, like the mine owners, were eager to obtain new iinil unfair advantages out of the gen eral confusion. The government sought n peace of innipmmifc. but no one wanted compromise, and the men mid their eiuplii.ters found tin in-' lies tiiiullx in a rage ami in ti" ni'i'iil to do mix thing hut tight A a i Mis, qui nee of all this the gnverniiuiu has had to Intervene in a wa.x that suddi-nlx opened a xnwning chasm bit ween organi.ed lalior In Puglaml nml the unnrgaimcd public.

He seemed quite stung with the splendor of that sudden thought nnd amplified it pie torially until one quite expected some one larger than life nnd moiintninously heavy to clump up on the platform and stand "foiir-squaic" with nn uplifted nnd pon derous mm bearing a torch. Our expectations were agreeably disap pointed; there was nothing monumental or heroic in Miss Morgan's appearance and she hns the agreeable, casual, unself-con-fcIoiis manner of her class n sort of breezy foreeftilness that passes over what it cannot move and through what is not worth calling nn obstacle Her xolce and clear, rather rhythmic lit-' termiee Inn a decided currj lug power, and something in the handsome, generous char acteristics of her face, her easy, nltnost liov sh eartinge and the unturalness of the asides which escaped her here and there during tin- thought-out program of her speech, nil gave her audience tlie impression of power well directed nnd administrative iibllltj nf no common order. .!...

The work of the Americans was (Uns tated In moving pictures thnt seemed to have been taken in a continuous downpour, so henxv were the imperfections of the films and so hui Hod were nil the movements of tlie acini s involved.

It n sometimes a gratifving sensation to weep witli those thnt weep, but there comes a point when the wept over become restive and iiiigrtttcful. I Imagine tlint by this time the Piciii'li have eliminated all the weepers that tliev could not endure and retained mil those of the Morgan unit or the Prietids' jinit tpo who nre cheerful co-operators lather than tender svmpnthi.ers. A1 kind of reserved gaxetx seemed to mark all the adliities of those pictures.
