BRITISH LABOR IS FIGHTING TO RETAINPOWEF MacDonald Survives First of Three Serious Threats by Wide Margin. BV KEITH JOKES Vfitted Pres* Staff CotTMpondent LONDON, May 23—Prime Minister J. Ramsay MacDonald’s government survived the first of three serious threats against its life by a wide margin of votes Thursday ?ht. A motions by Sir Oswald Mosley at a party fneeeting in the commons chamber* and designed as a censure of the government for its unemployment policies, was defeated by a vote of 210 to 29. Proposals Rejected Mosley resigned Tuesday as chancellor of the duchy of Lancaster, explaniing the government had rejected proposals for unemployment relief which he offered in the belief they were an improvement on the existing government policies. Two other obstacles confront Prime Minister MacDonald before he can feel again that his government is seated safely in the saddle of government. The first is the proposed motion of the conservative opposition on May 28 to reduce the salary of J. H Thomas, lord privy seal, by SSOO. The second is the recently declared defection of David Lloyd George’s Liberal followers, who heretofore have given greatly needed support to the Laborites. Need Support of Liberals The conservative motion would be tantamount to a vote of censure on the unemployment policy, since Thomas is recognized unofficially as minister of unemployment. Support of the Liberals is most Important to MacDonald, since with the Laborites’ present representation in parliament they could not hope to .carry vital government measures if Lloyd George threw his influence to the conservatives. Lloyd George has become dissatisfied with MacDonald's failure to give some definite indication of electoral representation reforms.

Schumacher, directing psychiatrist of the Child Guidance Clinic: There are fifty-seven varieties of “it.” The lack of any one of them may make a psychological problem of a child. Os the 1,112 abnormal children observed in the clinic last year all lacked one or more of the fifty-seven varieties. Parents, teachers and associates of the child are usually to blame for lack of one of the varieties. Famous personalities, “people you like to know,” are that way because they have all the fifty-seven varieties in the best proportions..

SHAW PLACES $250 VALUE ON A ‘CUSSWORD 5 Author Thinks Woman Was Cheated in Trading His ‘Damn’ for Book. Bu United Press LONDON, May 23.—The short but expressive word “damn” may not be worth money to the countless thousands who use it each day in giving vent to their feelings, but when George Bernard Shaw uses it, it is worth at least s2so—he thinks. Shaw recently received a letter from a woman asking for a free copy of his book “An Intelligent

Woman’s Guide to Socialism” for a society she had just formed. “Damn it, nc!” Shaw wrote across the bottom of the letter. “A woman’s society that can net afford 15 shillings for a copy of my book has no right to exist.” He returned the letter and a fortnight later received a short note from the woman saying she had taken the letter to a bookseller who in return for it had given her a copy of Shaw's book. At the bottom of this letter, the famous author wrote: “What fools women are! If you had taken it to the right place you would have got 50 pounds for it.” William Maxewell, publisher of Edinburgh, who said he was lunching with Shaw when he received this communication, said the author hoped the woman tried to raise the 50 pounds on the second autograph.

ALABAMA AND JERSEY RACES TO BEPROBED Senate Committee to Start Working After Scanning Illinois, Pennsy Votes. BY PAUL R, MALLON United Press Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON, May 23.—Confidential information given the senate campaign investigating committee about the tense and peculiar primary election tussles in New Jersey and Alabama has convinced it that inquiries are needed in those states, it was learned today on responsible authority. The committee headed by Sen-

ator Nye (Rep., N. D.) probably will begin work in New Jersey as soon as the pending Pennsylvania and Illinois situations are cleared up. It will turn to Alabama later in the summer. Senatorial contests in the two new states are of outstanding national interest because of the threecornered battle centering around the candidacy of Dwight Morrow in New Jersey and the efforts of Heflin of Alabama to win re-elec-tion against the Democratic organization which has barred him from the state ticket. This was done because of his opposition to
