PREDICTS FALL OF MACDONALD IN NEXT YEAR British Conservatives Are Content to Wait During Economic Crisis. BY WILLIAM PHILIP SIMMS Seripps-Howard Foreirn Editor WASHINGTON, Nov. 3—Unless all signs fail, the British labor government, headed by Premier Ramsay MacDonald, will crash in the next twelve months. Only two things now are propping It up. The opposition is in no great hurry to take the reigns during the present unprecedented economic, industrial and unemployment situation, and the Indian crisis. The conservatives, next strongest party in Britain, still are split wide open over the tariff and the dominions trade policy. More Than 2,000.000 Jobless After something like a nationwide demand for a change of regime begins to make itself manifest, the conservatives hope to step in and have a try. At present there are well over 2,000,000 unemployed in Britain, drawing doles from the public treasury. This winter probably will see 3,000,000 idle. Even within the Labor party itself there is a faction dissatisfied with the MacDonald movement. Like the liberal leader, Lloyd George, they openly demand “more drive" in the effort to put an end to the grave economic crisis through which the country is passing. Predict Tariff Retaliation The Conservatives claim to have a. remedy ready. They promise rigorous economy, tax reduction, a protective* tariff on manufactured articles, a pegged wheat price and increased trade with the dominions. It is significant that the entire Conservative party is prepared to play the tariff game started by the United States, shutting out American products just as America has shut out British products. If the Conservatives regain power, as they likely will before long, tariff retaliation will become inevitable. DEVISE PHOTO SYSTEM Scientists Reveal Method of Taking Pictures With Microscope.

FAMED FOREIGN LEGION BAN ON U. S, GUNMEN Only Men in World That French Desert Army Does Not Want. BY RALPH HEINZEN I’nited Press Staff Correspondent SIDI BEL ABBES, Nov. 3.—The far-famed French Foreign Legion, long known as a haven for mystery men who sought to hide a past under the drab uniform of the desert army, will close its ranks to the American gangster, the only man in the world the Legion does not want. Shortly after Jack Diamond came to Europe and was Shunted f -*~- pillar to post and rushed home after seeing the inside of many jauj, ulcers of the Foreign Legion were ad-

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

vised from New York that various American gunmen were inquiring as to the possibilities of hiding away in the legion from the killers of rival beer gangs The legion considered the century of traditional hospitality to unfortunate men, under which any one who cared could enlist as a soldier and need not even give a fictitious name. But after careful thought Colonel Rollet declared today that the legion doesn’t want any of New York’s or Chicago’s gangsters. “The Legion is not a regiment of criminals,’’ Colonel Rollet insisted today. “There have been many men come through the* legion who preferred not to tell their real names, but they were not necessarily criminals. Some were men whose love was blighted. ‘‘Many are venturesome youths who are glad to work off steam in an organization that is known to do plenty of fighting, without leaving a trace later along of their service.’’ Ohio Editor to Speak Turman ( Dusty) Miller, president of the Daily News-Journal of Wilmington, 0., will address the Indianapolis Rotary in the Claypool.

WHOLE WORLD IS GRIPPED BY JOBLESSCRISIS Geneva Group Puts Total of Idle at More Than 12,000,000. (Copyright. 1930. by United Press! Most of the world, with the excep- j ticn of France, is suffering acutely! from a vast growth of unemployment. The international labor organization at Geneva estimates the total in the world at from 12,000.000 to 15,000,000, but admits the figures are incomplete. The United States leads in the Geneva figures, with an estimated 4,000,000 idle. The figure is considerably higher than that of the United States census, which estimated about 2,500,000, in April, while President Hoover's associates

place the present number at 3,500,000. Germany shows the greatest unemployment in proportion to population, with one person in twenty being out of work. Great Britain is next with about one out of twenty-two jobless, and the United States third with about one out of thirty. Germany, not listed in the Ge-| neva figures, announces an official; count of 3,184,000. The Geneva figures place the un- j employed in Russia at I,lso,ooo—although the number was denied in Moscow, and Great Britain at 2,100,- j 00. France has only 1,000.
