LONDON, May G. Paralysis and

only around tho corner, unless some

Pour million workmen, including
the minors, are now either without
Jobs or temporarily out of work, ac
cording to official figures.
The general business depression la
reflected in the stock market, whore
all textile and majority of Industrial
shares have slumped fearfully this
week.
The business power of at least half
the nation Is seriously curtailed, and

tho piping times of war.
From tho highest social circles in

generally have rigidly cancelled nil
functions such as dinners and dances
Tho routine notices in the social col
untns of London newspapers read

Beauvals' face turned scarlet with
anger as he read the alleged letter
and was Informed by the United Press
correspondent that it had been pub
lished in New York as having been
used In the Stillman divorce case.
"I never addressed Mrs. Stillman in
such terms," the alleged co-respondent
assorted, after a moment. "Some
one has doctored a letter of mine, but
this writing is not mine. They have
made a great love letter writer out of
me."

In tho allied supreme council, the rep
arations commission and the council
of ambassadors.
It was stated at the. White House
Thursday that tho proposal was re
ceiving "official consideration."
While it has not been indicated
when America will make answer, it Is
understood that President Harding
and Secretary Hughes are consider
ing the Invitation mainly from three
.angles: .
1. 'Numerous European questions,
particularly tho German reparations
settlement, are of such vital Interest
to the United States that he adminis
tration believes this country shou'd
have more direct representation In
pending negotiations than It possess
es at present.
2. It Is recognized, however, that
many of the European Issues aro of
purely foreign Interest and suggest
the necessity of carefully defining the
extent of American participation.
3. Tho attitude of congress to
ward American participation in Eu
ropean affairs is a factor expected
to bear closely upon the president's
action.
While tho president could name an
'unofficial obsorver without the con
sent of congress, ho might ask such
approval, in tho same way that for
mer President Wilson requested con
gressional endorsement for the ap
pointment of an American representa
tive to the reparations committee. The
request was not granted.

The New York club owners deny
Uhat the home run king has been

Bambino is acting.
Huggins wants his boyB in early

Managers have various Ideas of

Giants follow the straight and nar

different Ideas.
Cobb refused to lay down a set
of training rules when he took hold

he would leave it up to the boys to
keep in conditions-according to their
own ideas.
