2ITJIXE2T BACK FROM EUBOPE
New York Arthur Mullen, vet
eran democratic national committee
man of Omaha, Neb., on his return
from England characterized Ramsay
MacDonald'8 formation of a national
government as a "brave sacrifice."
"Now Mr. MacDonald's act as
sumes the proportions of not only a
very brave, but a very necessary
thing." Mr. Mullen said. "The Eng
land we saw in our three weeks'
stay was indeed in bad shape spirit
ually and politically. The question
of the dole, perhaps, Is one of the
most serious facing the country. The
effect upon the workers of receiving
money for their livelihood from pub
lic funds is bad to say the least."
Mr. Mullen declared he would vig
orously oppose any movement to in
stitute the dole as an unemployment
relief measure in this country. He
said he has been opposed to the sys
tem since its inception. The democra
tic leader was accompanied by Mrs.
Mullen.

New York. Houston pleaded not to
be sent back, saying that discipline
in the reformatory was cruelly harsh.

Talk with Prime Ilinister Ramsay
XXacDonald Expected to Bring
About Decision Today
London. Sept. 29. Prime Minister
Ramsay MacDonald discussed with
King George in Buckingham palace
this afternoon the delicate question
of whether there shall be a general
election next month. Although Bri
tons are chary of "bringing the crown
in politics," it was accepted in poli
tical circles that the king asked him
to carry on with his national gov
ernment. The king was said to be anxious
that, for the time being, the govern
ment avoid an appeal to the country
in an election.
Cabinet meetings were' held off
and on during the day, and while
nothing authoritative was made pub
lic concerning the deliberations, it
was apparent they were proving diffi
cult. Tomorrow is expected to bring a
decision, for MacDonald has promis
ed at that time to inform the house
of commons of the government's ver
dict. Conservatives Want Election.
Conservative members of the cabi
net have been wanting almost de
manding an Immediate election
with tariffs as the chief issue in the
government's program. Liberal cab
inet members are declared to be no
less vigorously opposed both to ' an
election and to tariffs.
The platform on which the labor
party will fight the next election
was made public tonight. The party
executive has approved resolutions
opposing tariffs, condemning any
freSh attempt to force sterling back
to the gold standard and pledging
labor to reverse the government's un
employment policy. These resolutions
will be submitted to the full party
conference next month.

authoritative word, it remained pos
sible that Mr. MacDonald would car
ry out his threat to resign and re
tire a least temporarily from poli
tics. The Daily Herold, labor organ,
announces that the national execu
tive of the labor party has decided
that all members and supporters of
the national government are no long
er members of the party." The decis
ion rules out 13 members of parlia
ment, including MacDonald and Phil

Common, tonight gave the national
government a majority of 55 votes
on' the third and final reading of
the national economy bill, which em
powers the government to make dras
tic cuts in national expenditure by
orders in council and without parlia
mentary action. "The vote on the bill
was 297 to 242. World-Herald.

London. Sept. 30. Plight Lieuten

new world's airplane speed record of
408.8 miles an hour over a three
kilometer course at Calahot yester
day, it was officially announced this

Lieutenant Stain it.rt h broke his

made in the Schneider trophy race
Septemper 13. He flew a seaplane
fitted with special engines.
The announcement was not made
until 4:20 a. m., following a pro
longed examination and comparison
of the judges' checks. The follow
ing speeds were finally given for the
four successive laps: 415.2; 40a. 1;
409.5, and 405.4.
These gave an average speed of
40S.8 miles an hour.
Ton Speed 415.2 Miles.
The" racing seaplane flown by
Lieutenant Stainforth was fitted
with what is claimed to be the most
powerful engine ever built and it was
designed for this flight alone, achiev
ing the amazing top speed of 415.2
miles an hour on one of the four
laps.
The w.eather was not considered
ideal for the flight and experts said
it was "barely safe," but the en
gines were tuned up and Lieutenant
Stainforth decided to make the trial
in spite of the weather.
He made a perfect takeoff and was
speedily off in the mist, although the
roar of the motor could be heard far
away. Only glimpses of the machine
were obtainable by those who watch
ed the flight as the ship made suc
cessive turns with marvelous skill.
Came Down at Level.
The weather became worse and
officials were alarmed as Lieutenant
Stainforth glided down for a land
ing, because the sea was getting
rough and they knew the plane would
strike the water at a speed of at
least one hundred miles an hour.
