LILLIAN GISH IN LONDON; FINDS EVERYBODY CALM Shop Girls Say They Will Win Strike if Their Feet Hold Out. Editor's Note: One of the most inter'■stlnsr eye-witness desorlntions of the Britisli Kcneral strike is contained in the following article written by Lillian Gish, the American motion picture star. Her experiences in the strike and her reaction to it niay be considered f>rly typical of tliose of thausnnds of American tourists now in London. |{y Lillian Gish. (Copyright, 1926.) LONDON, May 6. —"Where's the strike?" 1 asked myself when I went to find It. Just as I would do on Fifth Ave. in New York, I walked down Bond St. window shopping, pressing rny face against the heavy glass and admiring the pretty things which were on display. I ambled all over the west end and saw life proceeding normally. Busses were running, people went shopping* .iust as though England wasn’t tied up with the greatest general strike in its history. Curious to know what workers thought, T went into one store and asked a shop girl what she thought about the strike. “I don’t know because it doesn't

I affect me much,” she said, continui ing to measure a piece of silk. ' “Who will win the strike?” I asked her. ’I will If my feet hold out," she replied, quickly. "I left my home to go to work at 6:45 in the morning and arrived in the store at 10:15." That is a good example of the spirit I found everywhere. The greatest impression which the first days of the strike have given me is i (lie calm, almost cold dignity with | which (he people received it. I just j couldn’t imagine Americans taking j a similar attitude. If the L’nlted | States found itself in such a posi- | lion I think we would become quickI ly excited. Hiking Nation j X will say. however, that it is a j good thing England is a walking na- ! tion, and, believe me, the hikers | are getting good practice. One picture has thrilled me. It is ! the picture of footsore working girls limping to their stores and offices, ! and then, when the day’s stint is i done, limping homeward along the ! embankment. I couldn't help woni dering wl)at these girls have done | to deserve such hardships. Everybody who is not ignoring j the strike seems to be fighting on j one side or the other —labor or govI ernment. As it happens most of the people I have seen are In the thick of the fight. Dorothy and I have tried to listen to street conversations in order to catch the workers’ sentiment, but we do not like to ask people what they might consider impertinent ques- | tions. ! It seems that all our friends | among the English—men and women ! —have volunteered their services.

Nobody could avoid getting the impression that everybody is accepting the situation unselfishly—not as a personal matter, but as something unpleasant which must be endured, like medicine. The strike has affected me in only two ways. In the first place. I have no newspapers except a single mimeographed page which the Savoy is j publishing.
