NEWSPAPER
LONDON, May 6. P)—Premier
Baldwin said: “This strike is a chal
i lenge to the British parliament and,
is on the road to anarchy and ruin.” j
Baldwin called upon all good citizens
to stand behind the government “to
preserve the liberties and privileges
of the peoples of the British Isles.” j
Sir William Johnson Hicks, Home
Secretary, iijjimated that troops will
be employed if it is necessary to main
tain services of vital importance.
Meanwhile, in many cities, industry
is almost at a standstill, taxicab driv-1
ers joined the strikers. While this
*
is not of great importance to the out
side districts, it adds to the inconve
nience of Londoners.
j The Daily Mail appeared for the first
time since Sunday. The two-page ed
ition said there is now two govern- j
ments in Britain; one the lawful gov
ernment representing forty million
people and the other “an unconsti
tional and revolutionary government,
representing three million six hund
, red thousand trade unionists,” and
declared one must go. “We are not!
going to see J. H. Thomas and Ramsay !
MacDonald imitating the work of Le
nin and Trotzky here.”

FAIRBANKS. May 6.
(AP>.—The plane Alaskan
of the Wilkins Arctic expe
ditior smashed in attempt
ing to leave the field. The
propellor was splintered and
the wings torn to shreds,
with her landing gear on the
light side reduced to a tan
gled wreck.
The plane, with Captain
Wilkins and Lieut, Ei’ieson
was about to start on a 1000
mile flight in search of land
in the Arc k when it struck
a hammock of soft earth, the
right wing tilting downward
striking the ground and
causing the spill The acci
dent eccured in a second at

which had been lightened af
ter its first attempt.
This, it is presumed, will
spell the climax to the Wil

attempts are concerned.
