(British United Press) IDNDON, April ail-Millions of workers in Europe will observe May day tomorrow, with demonstra ona against recent wage cuts and tli ris- ing number of unemployment. Police in the major cities have taken pse- cautions to maintain order. Although no "monetar- demonstrations" were expeoted, the authorities were fully aware of the general unrest prevail- ing in moat countries, and the need to guard against any precipitant outbreaks. The workers have watched with apprehension the weakening of the vaunted solidarity of labor which first became an impressive force in tiieeoonosnicllfagtheworldim- rnadlataly after the World War.

Strikes, lockouts and other labor disturbances accompanied attempts to reduce wages in Germany, espe- etally in the Ruhr district. An agree- ment was reached after many weeks negotiations in which "white collar" workers also accepted lower pay. Similar cuts were made 1n France and Italy.

There may be other striking developments in this “Pageant of progress" as the May Day demonstration‘ has been named by its sponsor For the date con- fllcts with the annual patriotic and memofiul service of the veterans of foreign wars, who have been grant- ed sols use of the Square from ricon until 2 pm. when they are to give wit’ to the socialists. The Socialists will hold forth for two hours, surrenderihs the seven wooden pulpits. from which so many oration: are to be delivered, to the Communists at 4 pan. and that, to the minds of anxious police officials, is exactly where the trouble may start. On the side of the Commun- ists. at least, there is little love wastnd on their oldtime colleagues the socialists, whom they deem to hold nauseous pink policies. There- fore, when a o'clock comes, and the Oommunlats seek to enter the square and the Socialists-as they , ‘ —try to hold the fort for another, a third element in the struggle may have to intervene. ‘me third element is Oanmlsslonea- Mulrooneyh “Oca- sacks," booted and spurred and ready to ride into the fray whenever the occasion arises. And yet, Oom- miasionar Muiroesiey says he “ex- pects no trouble." He granted per- mission fw the veterans to hold their rally. He politely conceded the so- cialists their right to gather. Final- Lv, altar acting as a one-man board of arbitration in the matter of hours. he extended the courtesy of the Square to mo Omnmunists. Mean- whils he unabashed to each appli- bantfor a place in the May Day sun that the hours he set forth would be observed.

The new bonds to be offered at this time will be for the conver- slon of a part of all issues maturing between now and the end of i934. “A definite announcement of the conversion plan," the Prime Minister declares in his statement. "will be made only when the Government is satisfied that every detail has been arranged for a Dominion wide op- portunlty for holders of existing bonds to place their applications for conversion." ' The Prime Minister's statement in- dicates that the preparations for the new loan have not reached the com- pleted stage, reports from New York last night set forth.

It is expected the loan will be offered in ten or fifteen days. ,The Weather, Etc. tic llama Patton Nita Birmi- Locit M‘ {as Prom (aw Sarto (visas! TORONTO.

A report of extensive charitable and philaigiiroplc work done during the past year by the Free Dlzpen- sary, was made by Miss Amy Earl at the annual meeting of the Anti- Tuberculoals Society and Free Dis- pensary held last evening in the Board of Trade rooms. A large num- her of orders for food and medicine Miss Earle stated, were given during the past winter season which was an unusually hard one, on account of tho general unemployment. The re- iptrtl of the president Mr. w. F. Tid- irarsh who presided, and of the sec- retary Mrs. R. I.- Cotton were also received. The treasurers report showed tot- al receipts of $1931.57; total expend- iture of $1914 90, and a balance on hand of $16.58. Mr. '1'. E. McNutt expressed great pleasure on hearing the reports which he said/were the best he had ever heard from the society. The organ- ization during the last twenty one years has shown great initiative in community work, such as in the ad- . eating of meat and milk inspect- ion and in numerous other activit- ies. There was a great deal of un- employment in the city during the winter when between 400 and 500 men were out of work. The relief com- naittee paid out more than $600. There are a great many unemployed men drifting in from other provinces lurad here by stories of prosnrrlty here. There is a small percentage of local men who will not work.
