BRITISH CABINET IS REAL COUNCIL OF WORKINGMEN Even American History Offers No Parallel as Roster of Ministry Is Read, By WILLIAM PHILIP SIMMS Times Foreign Editor LONDON, Jan. 25.—Britain’s new labor cabinet, sworn in last night, met v.ith an amazingly favorable reception. Even the most conservative papers reluctantly admit “it might have been worse" while virtually all demand "it be given a fair trial.” There’s jStlll a handful of conservative British momentarily expecting the heavens to fall, but generally speaking there is no sign of panic but every indication Premier MacDonald will be successful. The favorable reception given the MacDonald government is amazing because it is really a unique government. Raised on Farm Premier MacDonald himself is the product of a two-room cottage and village school. He was raised by his grandmother and was called eff the farm to be a school teaqhcr. Arthur Henderson, home secretary, began life an iron moulder’s apprentice. J. H. Thomas, colonial secretary, was first errand boy and then engine cleaner, fireman and engineer. Thomas Shaw, minister of labor, is the son of a miner and worked in a cotton mill when 10 years old. Stephen Walsh, secretary of war, first worked as a coal miner. Vernon Hartshorn, postmaster gen eral, began as coal miner, then clerk, check-w r eighman and miners’ agent. J. H. Clynes, new lord privy seal, i3 the son of an Irish laborr and as a child worked in a cotton mill. Was Coal Miner John Wheatley, minister of health, was a coal miner until 22. William Anderson, secretary for Scotland, is the son of a miner and for twenty-seven years was a miner himself. F. W. Jewett, first commissioner of works, was first a factory hand, then weaver and overseer. Sidney Webb, president board of trade, started as a broker's clerk. Os the remainder three are lords, one sir, one member of the famous Wedgewood family of potters, one brigadier general and two have Oxford or Cambridge background. This Is more like an American than a British cabinet, yet even American history offers no parallel. It is a real council of workingmen.

YOUNG GIRLS UNDER FIRE Police Investigate “Drinking Bouts" of High School Students. Police today are investigating alleged drinking bouts and activities of two Indianapolis high school girl students. According to poliec, a coupe appearing to contain three young men was trailed from a house “spotted” by Federal prohibition authorities at Millersville.

Evidence showed that “drinking bouts” had been staged there, police said. KIDNAPING IS CHARGED Father Accused of Taking Children From Home of Mother.

HE KNOWS PLACE HE OCCUPIES IN COSmSCHEME Paleontologist Smiles at Temporal Things Passing By, By Times Special WASHINGTON, Jan. 25.—Honest now, Mr. Bryan, how could two of those armored dinosaurs have gotten into the ark, together with a pair of mastodons and the elephant and hippopotamus groups, and all the rest? But they say they’ve never seeft Mr. Bryan in the paleontology exhibit at the National Museum here, so maybe he doesn't know about them. They have a fossil fish 30,000,000 years old In that room at the museum. Close to It is the reconstructed skeleton of the Dimetradon Glgas, fiesh eating reptile that lived 15,000,000 years ago. It’s not a model. The bones you see are the real thing, petrified. A sea living mammal fifty-four feet long, a duckbilled dinosaur with 2.000 teeth —console yourself with that when you visit your dentist—an American mammoth, and dozens of ethers are there. And in "the boneyard” underneath the museum rooms, where you will never see him unless you ask especially, Is Thomas J. Horne who spends his life understudying The Creator, remaking these beasts of long ago.

Omni-Patient Being Without ownlpotence, only with omni-patience, Horn© and two other men work today after day piecing together fragments of prehistoric bone; making manifest with infinite care the story of life; gathering together the precious fragments from which the real story of the world will someday be written. Right now, Horne is doing a piece of "modern” work —putting together the shell of a turtle only about 200,000 years old. He speaks of it negligently. The shell is in fragments only a fraction of an inch long and wide. Horne searches among them all until he finds the ones which fit perfectly against each other. Then he cements them together. This is only a small part of his work. Many of the prehistoric bones that come to him, shipped by field scientists of the museum, are inbedded in granite. This must all be chiseled away without injuring in the least degree the fragile old bone. The last vestige of rock must be removed with scraping and polishing. 300 Pieces of One Bone Then the bones must be fitted together. One skull alone came to the museum in 300 pieces! It took two men six months to fit them together. Horne doesn't always have a model to work from in his reconstruction. He must juggle the bones until he finds their true relationship. Sometimes he must model all the ribs of a beast from one authentio specimen. In some cases, the other great museums of the world already possessing similar skeletons, send a cast or a photograph to aid the reconstruction. Still, that’s not half of it. Before the skeletons are ready for exhibition, they must be made firm by iron rods welded and bent to make invisible supports. This is hard as well as patient work. Horne got his preparation as a structural iron man. He has spent evei j A&y for thirteen in tht pplnatokiny tntl, A

then people come to the door of his exhibit, glance In, and walk out again! Horne shrugs. He has been Intimate with the ages and he knows how little they matter; how Uttle any of us matter. His soul has grown big enough to comprehend Its own infinltesmal place In the scheme of things. DOCTORS REVEAL SERUM SECREIS Story of Scarlet Fever Research Work Told, NEW YORK, Jan. 25.—Dr. A. R. Dochez, associate professor of medi dne at Columbia University’s College of Physicians and Surgeons, and Dr. Francis G. Blake, professor of medicine at Yale University School of Medicine, respectfully discoverer and tester of a scarlet fever serum, told the full story of their research work and experiments yesterday before the staff of the City Bureau of Laboratories and Intense of the Willard Parker Hospital for Infectious diseases. Hitherto Dr. Dochez had consented only to the publication of such details as he disclosed before the Socle'y for Experimental Biology and Medicine at Cornell University Medical College. Yesterday it was revealed that Dr. Blake at New Haven Hospital had <nJected the serum from Immunized horses In nineteen cases and favorable results had been noticed In fill. Where Dr. Blake, It was disclosed, had made lntra-muserular Injections In strong doses the scarlet fever rash -dlsap peared In eighteen hours, though one of the patients so treated was delirious with a temperature of 104 at the time. The two physicians, who have played a leading part In the development of the serum, addressed the staff of the Willard Parker Hospital at the special request of the Department of Health. In the discusison whloh followed the j addresses of Dr. Dochez and Dr. Blake, the possibility of the scarlet fever serum leading to a Similar serum for the treatment of measles and a secondary treatment for pneumonia was brought out. The physicians present were loath to make a definite announcement on this point, especially iff view of the warning of Dr. Dochez that there were no ground as yet for stating that the scarlet fever serum was a definite curative agent.

INTOLERANCE RULE IN CALIFORNIA AT LASTISLOOSENED Judge Who Fought I, W, W, Is Under Charge of ‘Prejudicial Misconduct,’ By MAX STKRN Timrs Staff Correspondent SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 25—California's dark night of intolerance has been pierced at last by rays of light. Today Judge C. O. Buslck, foe pf the I. W. W„ who won fame of a sort last fall when he Issued an injunction making membership in the I. W. W. contempt of court and all members subject to sentence without trial by jury stands charged with “prejudicial misconduct” in his attl tude toward the I. W. W. by the Third District Court of Appeals of California. The charge Is made in a decision ,v>v-dng the convictions of William Flanagan and, Albert Stagland under the California criminal syndicalism law. In the trial of these men, Buslck ruled out one of the defense pamphdenounced Its contents without letting the Jury read it, "tnoor- , ina.ged the jury,” and made “other numerous errors,” all of which the Appellate Court sums up as "prejudicial misconduct” In its rebuke to the Superior judge. Buslck Is quoted by the appellate judges tm having said In court, regarding the pamphlet: “I think It nothing but a treasonable article. It is not the truth and I think It unbecoming of anybody to offer such an article In defense of anybody. The very statement Is a conglomeration of falsehoods and treasonable utterances.” The rebuke of Buslck will lend strength to the attempt which will be made at the next Legislature to secure repeal of the criminal syndicalism law, It Is believed. The Buslck Injunction Is being attacked separately. A writ of habeas corpus was asked in the case of the first defendant under the injunction, and this will he fought to the Supreme CoUrt of the United States.

TEAPOT SCANDAL LOOKED UPON AS TRAGEDY BY COX Democratic Leader Would Take Another Nomination if Offered, By FELIX F. BRUNER “The Teapot Dome affair Is a National rather than a political tragedy," James M. Cox, Democratic candidate for President in 1920, said in an interview today. He was in Indianapolis to address the Central Electric Railway Association at the Lincoln Thursday night. “I regret it has arisen, even as a liability to the opposition party,” hr said. “I don’t usually indulge in ‘l-told-you-sos,’ but In looking over my acceptance speech the other day I saw where I had warned against this very thing. Campaign ‘lnvestments’ “Enormous sums of money were raised in the last Republican campaign, not as contributions, but as Investments in future preferences.” Cox said he had not taken the Teapot Dome investigation very seriously until he heard Albert B. Fall, former Secretary of the interior, “had been carrying money around in a dress suit case.” “Business men don't do business that way,” Cox said. Cox believes the scandal will have a profound effect on the coming campaign. The great Issue, Cox believes, will be isolation, political and economic. “The position of the Democratic party will be that thero must be an accord of nations If we are to have peace," he said. At the same time. Cox is not adhering to the Wilson principle that the League of Nations must be accepted, “without the crossing of a ‘t’ or the dotting of an ’l.’ ” “There will be nothing harmful to the cause in writing reservations that will reassure every conscientious fear,” he said. Willing to Run Again “There may be some who fear that we would Imperil our sovereignty, but those who have articulated the loudest against the league know better.” | Cox indicated he is a receptive candidate for *he Democratic nomination for President, but insisted he would not make an effort to obtain a single delegate to the convention. “I have told my friends in Ohio,” he said, "that if it becomes necessary to use me in furthering the great international cause for which I have contended. I am agreeable.”
