There were two votes against it--those of Gio- vanni Gioletti, former Premler, and Marcello Soleri, former Minis- ter of War and Finance. The two other members of the Giolettl group, constituting the only sur- vival of opposition to Premier Mussolini, were absent. Ex-Premier Gioletti is 86 years of age. He is the veteran of the Chamber, and has not missed a sitting during the 46 years since be was first elected. He has oc- cupied the same seat, which was always reserved for him, and he made his last stand Friday even- ing as the sole leader opposing the Fascist regime like Horatio at the bridge. The doughty warrior of the old Liberal school was the only speak- er to counter the Government mea- sure, and he succeeded in having his voice heard despite noisy in- terruptions by the majority mem- bers. Like Premier Mussolini, Giolet- tl is a Knight of the Supreme Or- der of Annunziata, which entitles him to the rank of Cousin to the King. With his usual calm, fnrpas- sive tone, the veteran, standing up- right, six feet, four inches, began amidst a breathless silence. "With this bill," he said, "the Government recognizes that a great civilized country like Italy must have among the constitution- al organs of state a national repre- sentation. "But the method suggested for the formation of the new chamber, it seems to me, cannot constitute a true and proper national repre- sentation. "In order that the Assembly may represent the entire mation, I believe it necessary that its mem- bers be elected in full liberty." POSTAL SALARIES QUERY BY ESSEX WEST MP.

"Which means, I suppose," sald the Interpreter, 'that there would be a riot to see who could lay hands on him first." The storm broke at Melvei's fac- tory. It was as Jake Vodell had told the Interpreter it would be-- "easy to find a grievance." Melver declared that before he would yield to the demands ¢f his workmen, his factory should stand idle until the buildings rotted to the ground. The agitator answered that be- fore his men would yield they would make Millsburgh as a city of the dead. Two or three of the other small- er unions supported Mclver's em- ployees with sympathetiz strikes, But the success or failura of Jake Vodell's campaign quickly turned on the action of the powerful Mill workers' union. The commander- -chief of the striking forces must wih John Ward's employees to his cause or suffer defeat. He bent ever effort to that end. Sam Whaley and a f:w like him waked out, But that was expect- ed Jy everybody, for Ham Whaley tadiaenined himself from the day of Vodell's arrival in Millshnrgh as the agitator's devoted follower and right-hand man. But this ansinble, whining weakling and his fellows from the Flats carried little ivfiu- ence with the majority of the sturdy, clearer-visioned workmen, At a meeting-of the Miilsburgh Manufacturing Association, Me Iver endeavored to pledge the or- ganization to a concerted effort against the various unions of thelr workmen. John Ward refused to enter in- to any such alliance against the workmen, and branded Melver's plan as being in spirit and purpose {dentical with the schemes of Jake Vodell. John argued that while the heads of the various related mills and factories possessed the legal right to maintain thelr crgan- ization for the purpose of further- ing such business interests as were common to them all, thev could not, as loyal citizens, attempt to de- prive their fellow workmen eiti- zens of that same rizht, Any such effort to array class against elass, he declared, was nothing less than sheer imperialism, and antagonisiie to every principle of Americen citi- zenship. When McIver characterized Vn- dell as an anarchist and stated that the unions were back of him and his schemes against the govern- ment, John retorted warmly that the statement was fals? apd an insult to many of the most loyal eltizens yn Millshurgh. There were individual members of the unions who were followers of Jake Vodell, certainly. But comparatively few of the union men who wera led by the agitator to strike realized the larger plans of thelr 'eader, while' the unions as a whole no more endorsed amarchy than did the Manufacturing Assoclation. Mclver then drew for his fellow manufacturers a very true picture of the Industrial troubles through out the country, and pointed out clearly and convincingly the na- tional dangers that isy in the threatening conditions, Mil'sburgh was in no way different from thou- sands of other communitiez. In the employers could not defend themselves by an organized effort | against their employees, he would like Mr. Ward to explain who would defend them. To all of which John answered that it was not a question of em- ployers defending themselves against them employees. The own- ers had no more at stake in the Helen of the Old House situation than did their workmen, { the lives cll were equally dependent upon e industries that were threatened with deatruetion. In the revolution that Jake Vodeil's protherhood was .fomenting the American employers could lose mo more than would the American em- ployees. The question was, How could American industries be.pro tected against both the imperialis- tic employer and the imperialistic employee? The answer was, By the united strength of the loyal Am- erican employers and employees, openly arrayed against the teach- ings and leadership of Jake Vodell, on the one hand, aad equally against all such principles and ac- tions as had been proposed by Mr Melver, on the other, When the meeting closed, McIver had failed to gain the support of the association, . Realizing that without the Mill he could never succeed in his plans, the factory owner appealed to Adam Ward himself. The old Mill owner, tn full ac- cord with Melver, attempted to force Jolin in line. But the young- er man refused to enlist in any class war against his loyal fellow workmen, Adam stormed and threatened and predicted utter ruin. John calmly offered to vesign, The fa- ther refused to listen to this, on the ground that his 111 health did not permit him to assume again the nianagement of tho business, and that he would never consent to the Mlil's being operated by any one outside the family. When Helen returned to her home in the early evening, she found her father in a state of mind bordaring on icsanity. Striding here and there about the rooms with uncontrollable nerv- ous energy, he roared, as he al- ways did on such occasions, about his sole ownership of the Mill-- the legality of the patents !Lat gave him possession of the new proeess --how it was his genius and hard work alone that had built np the Mill--that no one should take his possessions from him---waring his arms and chaking his fists In vio- lent, meaningless gestures. With his face twitching and working and his eyes hlazing with excitement and rage, his voice rose almnst to a scream: "Let them try to take anything away from me! [I know what they are going to do. but they can't do it. I've had the pest law- yers that I could hire and T've got it all tied up so tight that nn one can touch it, I could have thrown Pete Martin out of the Mill any time I wanted, He has no claim on me that any court In the world would recognize. Tot him try anything he dares. [I'll starve him to death--TI'll turn him into the streets--he hasn't a thing in the - world that he didn't get by working for me. I made him--! will ruin him. You all think that I am sick--you think that [ am crazy--that I don't know what | am talking ahout. [I'll show you -- you'll see what will happen if they start anything " The piteous exhibition ended as usual, As if driven by some in- visible fiend, the man rushed from the presence of those whom Le most! loved to the dreadful company nf his own fearful and monstrous thoughts. And the room where the wif: and children of Adam Ward sat was filled with the presence of tha' hidden thing of which they dared not speak. Everywhere throughout the eity the people were discussing John Ward's opposition to Melver, The community, tense with feel: ing, waited for an answer to the vital question, What wou!d the Mil workers' union do? Upon the an swer of John Ward's employees t the demands of the agitator for sympathetic strike depended th: success or fallure of Jake Vodell' Millsburgh campaign. (To be continued.) "Wet" or " (From Border " Which? Cities Star) Discussing Hover's chances of the Presidential nomination in the U.S, A, The Star says in an article of ex- ceptional merit:-- American "wets." like the "wets" of other countries, are always ar- ticulate, They have a way of mak- mg a minority sound like a major- ity, But they are not going to get any support from Mr .Hoover, who plainly and unequivocally, says: "Our country has deliberately un- dertaken a great social and econom- ic experiment, noble in motive and far-reaching in purpose. Jt must be worked out constructively." This is a clear statement of the situa- tion. Prohibition is still young. Social changes of this magnitude cannot be completed in a few years. Experimenting is necessary. Ontario entered upon another ex- perimental phase of the same ques- tion last year. It may be satis- factory; it may not. Time alone will tell, If the Government Con- trol low we have, fails, then Ontario will try something else. The habits of centuries are not easily changed Organized society, seeking to cor- rect evils, must grope around until it finds the right thing. If the prohibition law of the United States is not the right thing for that country, something else will take its place. Let us repeat, as Mr. Hoover says, it is a great social and economic experiment and it must be worked out constructively. Certainly no one can doubt hie statement that the law is "noble in motive." Exponents of prohibition bave had but one purpose in view, and ihat to improve the condition of the | country in which it was proposed | to institute a change, Al the re- 'viling, all the jeering, all the slan- 'dering, all the criticism, that may | be thrown at the heads of "dry" advocates, can never alter this fact. Complete prohibition may not be possible in our time, but the theory, at least, is not open to argument. Mr. Hoover appreciates the dif culties of the experiment the Unit- ed States is making. But because there are difficulties is not, in his opinion, a sufficient reason for say- ing that the law should be thrown overboard and the old conditions re- turned to. Herbert Hoover has faced difficulties before--and gol- ved them!

Cities New York, March 19.--The death rate from tuberculosis im thirty major cities, with a total popula- tion exceeding 25,000,000, decreas. ed six per cent in 1927, it was dis closed here by the National Tuber culosis Association. Actual deaths from the disease were 1,002 fewer than in 1926, figures compiled from reports of health commissioners ot large cities show. "As recently as 1923," explains Godias J. Drolet, statistician of the New York Tuberculosis and Health Association, "the tuberculosis death rate in most American cities aver- aged 100 deaths annually per 100, 000. Yet in 1927, only four years later, we find a rate of only 85.6 in thirty of these cities. "This included New York City, where the rate was 86 per 100,000 against 93 in 1926, a decline of eight per cent, Chicago's rate re- mained constant at 83 and at Phil- adelphia it was reduced from 96 to 85, or 11 per cent. "The rate in Detroit fell from 94 to 92; Cleveland, from 95 to 86; Baltimore, from 110 to 100; Boston, from 101 to 86; Pittsburg, from 79 to 73; San Francisco, from 94 to 89; Buffalo, from 95 to 81.
