the goods of other countries are dressed and put up for foreign export. It is singular fact, whatever the cause, that un employment grows from year to year, and that a large proportion of the inhabitants of the British Isles "live in a chronic, state of poverty or on the borderland. Mr. Shac kleton, the Socialist President of the Trades
Union Congress, now sitting at Nottingham,
advances the idea that the remedy for un employment is shorter hours. We presume he does not mean that the output of manu factures should be restricted, but that double shifts of workmen should be utilised and. thus provisión made for the workmen whom the introduction of labour-saving machinery may have displaced. This might relieve the distress if the plan is feasible from the..cm. plöyer's standpoint. It would be useless however, to double, the working shifts and increase the production if we are losing our foreign markets, as the Tariff Reformers allege. Additional relief may be found for the labouring classes by putting them on tensions at an earlier age; but the burden of the pensions must be borne by somebody and if any attempt is made by the. Liberal Administration to lay the burden on the middle-class income-tax payer, whose larger income does not always ensure greater ease in making ends meet, it will be the last straw, and will wreck the Liberal Party. It is quite evident that the socialism of a large section of the Labour Party consists of spoliation, and should a Parliamentary ma jority be used further to indulge the appetites $16.50 of a class at the expense of another, it may lead to serious constitutional disturbances in England.

The Crown Solicitor states that if the Board desires to minimise the breeding of anopheles mosquitoes, they should pass byelaws to that effect under section 16, sub-section 35.
