ENGLAND LONGS FOR BETTER CONDITIONS Country Envious of Return of Prosperity in United States.

THOUSANDS UNEMPLOYED.

POLITICAL DOCTORS CANNOT AGREE ON AILMENT OF BRITISH INDUSTRY GOSSIP FROM THE ENGLISH CAPITAL. - By Wilttam True Hawthorne.

" London, Nov. 19. 'England views

with longing, not to say with envy,

the evidences of returning prosperity to the United States. No such silver lining has appeared to the cloud hang-! ing over the British industrial world. The army of the unemployed increast each week and so serious has the

situation become that the government is confronted with the necessity of aftording relief. Private charity, liberal as It has been, is proving wholly inadequate to the needs. The political doctors are wholly unable to agree as to what is the matter with British industry. All they know Is that the patient is sick and that he does not Improve under their remedies. Things have been going from bad to worse for several years and now they are chiefly worse. It looks as If Edward's empire needed a complete business manager, one equal at least to the task of reducing the government's outgo to the size of Its Income. Mr. Asquith's government seems splendidly equipped for Increasing expenses, but so far It has failed utterly to increase revenues. One of the results of the hard times and the government's financial em

barrassments is that the protectionists are making headway. It is the belief of many public men that a general election is not far distant, for on several recent votes in the com

mons the government has barely maintained its majority. "With anoth-j er general election the opinion Is general that the present parliamentary majority will be overthrown and a majority returned pledged to the policy of a protective tariff. Cobden's theory of free trade, which has been Britain's policy for more than a generation, has proved a laman table failure, because the freeness of trade has come to be wholly one-sided. While the goods of all the world pass British ports without the payment of duties about every other important nation now imposes Import dues, protecting their own markets against British goods. Even some of the British colonies have tariff taxes and a number of cases they are levied against the mother country. In a situation like this, with Industries languishing, revenues falling off and the expenses of government ln-

creasing, the British public mind is about ripe for an overthrow of the traditional British policy. It would be reasonable to expect in a time like this that the socialist and labor vote would greatly increase, but such was not the case In the recent municipal elections. All the substantial gains -were made by the unionists, the party which advocates a protective tariff and which went down tov defeat at the last general election because of the Chamberlain propaganda, which was then too new to be acceptable to British voters taught for a generation to believe that free corn and a cheap breakfast were the only things needed to make the British workman happy. The years since then have rudely Jolt-. ed the theories of the. Cobden club and the British workman has often found, himself hungry, though all his edibles are untaxed. - It Is the judgment today of politicians that a general election could be forced any time the unionists saw fit, but as things are now the longer a parliamentary election is delayed the better thay are satisfied. It is a case of

giving a calf all the rope it wants. The liberal government Is dally get

ting in worse disfavor, and when the 1 unionists return to power they want ! sufficient majority in the Commons so ' they will not have to enter into any embarrassing alliances with the minor

parties, something that daily causes trouble for Mr. Asquith's ministry.

"Americanomania'' Is a new word which has been coined by a correspondent of the Pall Mall Gazette. He says it is what is the matter with Australia, and he is grieved beyond measure that it is so. The enthusiasm with which the American battleships were greeted by Australians has been a bitter pill for Englishmen, but this writer is the most melancholy of them all. "Even New South Wales, the mother state," he says, "has proved herself young enough to fall Into hysterical raptures over the visit of the United States Pacific fleet. Australians are ardent lovers of excitement, and when Mr. Deakln. In one of those self-convincing outbursts of eloquence to which he Is

subject, Invited Mr. Roosevelt to send his fleet to Australian shores the peo

ple of the commonwealth welcomed : the opportunity that such a visit afforded them for the display of bunt-i iDg and Illuminations and the holding of banquets, reviews and races all these. things being to them the breath of life. Many writers in the press went so far as to say that the Americans, In sheer gratitude for the lavish entertainment of their Pacific fleet, would ready and willing to come to the rescue whenever the influx of Orientals, which they resent so strongly In their own country, snould seriously threaten Australia. , t It has been many years since anything has so aroused the jealousies of

Englishmen as has the reception the Australians gave the American battleships.' They seem to think America Is trying to alienate the affections : of Australia and more to the point, that they have met with no little success.
