BSBBsPasnaiaL sHVag9": bj ' atari NJf YoTfeS , , :v8aXlS.'ic2; 1 oners Ancient Fabian Society Rises to High Position Of Political Importance By BATES RANET (Associated Press Staff Writer) LONDON "(AP) After forty six years ot stret corner debating, soap box oratory and parlor so cialism, the Fabian Society which had only 200 members in 1800, has become a political power in Great Britain. Today Us membership numbers about 2,000, many of whom are listed in Who's Who. A former Fabian Is Prime Minister, eight members of the British cabinet are Fabians and twenty other members of the society hold im portant posts under the Labor Party government. With the slogan "educate, agi tate and organize." the Fabian Society, named after Quintus Fab les Maximus, who formulated the first "watchful waiting" policy as far back as the Punie wars, the intellectual group is consolidates its position with lectures this win ter at Kingaway Hall under the general title of "Social Evolution: The Next Ten Tears." Prominent in attendance is a benevolent looking, elderly, white whiskered gentleman known to the world as George Bernard Shaw who writes plays in his spare time so, some think, that he can attach long prefaces to them expounding Fabian doctrines. "G. B. s." was one of the pioneers In the lengthy political and intel lectual crusade which succeeded in upsetting British conservatism long enough to put In power two socialistic Labor party govern ments. Some of the old-timers can re call when a blatant Shaw was showered with stones and bottles when he mounted his soap box in the London streets and Hyde Park while today many come Just to see the benign old gentleman sitting at a Fabian lecture and hoping 'they may hear him speak. Lord Passfield and his wife, Mrs. Sidney Webb, are prominent Fabians, as is also Lord Sankey, who as tbe Lord High Chancellor Is "Keeper of the King's Con science." - On a bokshelf at the entrance to Kingsway Hall may be seen a volume entitled "The Decay of Capitalist Civilization" by Sidney and Beatrice Webb. Since writing this book Sidney Webb has gone to the House of Lords to do bat tle for the Labor Party under the title of Lord Passfield and to ad minister a goodly portion of the British Empire as Secretary of State for Dominions and Colonies. While accepting, her husband's title as a political necessity -Mrs. Sidney Webb declined the honor of becoming a peeress. "I am 70 now and desire no other name than Mrs. Sidney Webb,", she said. Lord Sankey used to thrill the "Fabian audienees by speaking in a brilliantly disrespectfully man ner of the House of Commons and advocating the overthrow of tbe House of Lrds altogether. Allied t the Labor Party, the Fabian Society put In much, time before the last election getting up statistics reports and urograms for the Labor Party, writing books ITVS KIOT ALL FOOL'o DAy FOR PEOPLE WHO BLT CARS OF A IfAlflaN orA w . f . -sssmnw7w w m on socialism and electioneering. making speeches on street corn ers, la the East End and in Union Halls until, by common consent, it was credited with having done much to insure the sweeping vic tories of the Labor Party at the polls last summer. ra PIS heiduuh MONTREAL, Italy (AP) Unfrocked priests who refuse to quit wearing cassocks are hence forth to be punished exactly as are masqueraders in the uniforms ot the Italian armed forces. This is provided by the concor dat between church and state, and Nicolo Termini, suspended from priestly functions by the Archbi shop of Monreale, has Just found It out. Prior' to the conclusion of the Lateran treaties, the Catholic au thorities were powerless to en force their canonical decisions on rebellious ex-clerics. Now the Ital ian state Itself insures the re spect of the ecclesiastical habit. The Montreal case has had wide repercussions. The' well-, known Ernesto BonaJutI, whose sacerdotal dignity was taken away in 1925 by the congregation of the Holy office, has at last been oblig ed to forsake priestly raiment. EM LEAVES VVIERD OESffi III BRICK SANTA FE, N. M. (AP) At least one convict has left his mark on the New Mexico state penitentiary which may never fade. A brick-layer, convicted of mur der, was an Inmate of the New Mexico prison in 1921 when ad ditions - were made to the state prison brick plant. ' He was assigned to take charge of a Job of building a new kiln stack. When the scaffolding was re moved, one side of the chimney which was laid by that convict was strangely decorated. He had vented a knack of art istry with bricks by covering that side of ih chimney with a design whose characters are still unin telligible to prison officials. No one knows what "V. M. C." means, or the reason for the num bers "1105." They are not the initials of the convict and not the prison number of the convict. The convict never explained. The prisoner was freed on an appeal to the state supreme court. Apparently he had been errone ously convicted. But in the heart of the prison brickyard stands his artistic monument, lending the only flash of color and design in the entire prison. His name is Nothing contributes more to the satisfaction of the Nash owner than the knowledge that a higher price could pur chase nothing better in the way of engineering. It gives him pride in his car and sound assurance that hts investment will repay to him the fullest measure of finest performance.

Today, De Soto's front-rank position in the field of low-priced sixes is firmly established, f It is plain that no car of common place ability could win so high a place In public favor as De Soto Six has won in so short a time. The qualities that built this quickand lasting success were and are exceptional. 1 Success on a scale enjoyed by De Soto Six never comes by chance. It is earned by merit alone by ottering at a low price a better kind of quality, a smarter type of design, a richer ar ray of appointments and a greater ability-to perform, .4 To De Soto owners, it is not surprising that the ' discriminating driver who gives the De Soto Six a thorough trial usually becomes eager to poeeene it.
