BRITISH ISLES
m
LONDON, July 1 (Correspondence
of Associated Press).—The word
“revolution,” which foreign observers
sometimes apply to the present tran
sitional stage of British industrial
and political life, is not popular here.
Revolution savors of bayonets and
bloodshed, and the British people do
net foresee nor predict that. Recon
struction is the current term even
though the general result of what is
being done and agitated for may, in
the opinion of other people, amount to
an industrial revolution.
A brief summary of the changes
under way should show that recon
struction in Great Britain comes
roughly under two heads—the official
and the unofficial. The principal
projects which the government is
grappling with are:
Nationalization of the two great
basic industries, coal mining and the
railways.
Governnment support for all per
sons out of work through war condi
tions.
Schemes for government house
building for workers, and land for
the demobilized soldiers.
A colossal system of electric power
plants for manufacturing.
Increased pay for everybody in the
government service, which has al
ready been granted to the navy and
army, with further increase for postal
; and telegraph workers and the police.
School teachers and other classes of
public servants also are demanding
increases.
The unofficial reconstruction calls
for higher wages and shorter working
hours for all in the organized indus
tries. These are being obtained part
ly by amicable negotiations between
employers and workmen, but also
largely through strikes and threats
of strikes, of which the idleness of
half a million from the cotton mills
is an instance.
Proceeding simultaneausly with
these movements and sometimes com
plicated with them are political agita
tions which now and then reach the
point of crisis. The principal politi
cal issues are: Nationalization of
mines, railways and other essential
industries; abandonment of the old
British free trade system for protec
tion (involving the question open to
endless discussion whether British
commercial prosperity has been be
cause of free trade or handicapped
by it), the position of Ireland, whose
present condition has come to be rec
ognized as a millstone on the neck
of the empire; and the proposal to
clear off the war debt by a levy on
capital.
Also there is a campaign of organ
ized labor, backed by a talk of a
general strike, for the immediate
abolition of conscription, withdrawal
from all interference in Russian af
fairs, and bringing home the soldiers
from Russia, India and Egypt. Anti
imperialism, the democrats call this
propaganda.
MEXICANS TO RECEIVE
UP-TO-DATE PICTURES
MEXICO CITY, July 18 (by mail).
—American moving films are increas
ing in popularity here. Until eigh
i
I
teen months ago European pictures
were favored by the public which had
acquired a taste for French and
Italian productions. Of late, how
ever, American manufacturers have
put their products to the fore in the
republic, and their films are to be
found in virtually all picture houses,
in many of them displacing altogether
the European films.
Evidence that the United States
manufacturers intend to expand
their field here is the fact htat with
in the past few weeks three of the
leading companies have established
offices in Mexico City, and these in
turn have started branches in Vera
Cruz, Guadalajara, San Luis Potosi
and Monterey. Representatives of
these firms assert that in a short time
Mexico will receive film releases al
most simultaneously with the United
States. This will be an innovation
for heretofore managers have been
content to receive films many months
old and of a poor quality.
It’s the flavor and the grain which
make the bread at the City Bakery
famous.
The well-known “Westinghouse”
electric heaters are now for sale by
the Northwestern Hardware Co.
