MILLION OUT OF WORK IN ENGLAND March 25 Set as Date of Re- volution by Extremists. London, Jan. 16. --Unemployment in England is increasing rapidly, and to -day it is stated that the number of men, women, boys and girls who are registered as totally out of work is close upon 1,000,000. The reaching of new markets or the revival of •old ones is recognized to be the .one means of coping with the unemployment problem. During the past week several large businesses have stopped their export work. With this phase of the question the Gov- ernment is striving to deal by seek- ing the co-operation of banks and in- surance ,companies in carrying through a seh,enne along the lines suggested by Ter Meulen, the Dutch economist, whereby credits could be opened for those Continental countries that want goods which they are at present un- able to buy. Plans whereby the stab- ilization of exchanges could be secur- ed are also under eonsideration. These and other remedial measures to • eou nteract the economic ailments from which the world is suffering, • even if success attends them, will necessarily be slow in their effects, and in view of Government unemploy- ment on its present scale it is too BRIAND AGAIN PREMIER OF FRANCE Has Formed Cabinet it Suc- cession. to Ex -Premier Leygues.

Weekly Market Report SERUM IS FAILURE AS CANCER CURE Report of Academy of Medi tkine on Serum of D. Glover. A despatch from Toronto'. Fay's:—In the interim report of the spe'c'ial eom- mittee appointed by the Council of the Academy of Medicine to report on the cancer Brum of Dr: T. J. Glover, which was''handed out on Thursday night, it is pointed out that there is no evi- dence to warrant the hope that a spe- cific cure for cancer has been dis- covered by Dr. Glover, or that any cure has ever been produced by the Glover serum • in any disease whieh had bean definitely established as can- cer. After referring to the claims which have been advanced for the serum, and after referring to the his- tory of some cases, the report goes on to state that in many eases of cancer, whether the disease was in either a mild or an advanced stage, the pro- gress of the patient has been steadily downward in spite of the use cm the Glover serum and that the course of the cases is apparently' influenced by the use of this• serum. The special committee also draw attention to the fact that their world• was greatly handicapped by Dr. Glover's refusal c:o permit them to visit his laboratories or to examine his eutures. They fur- ther state that the doctor would not demonstrate to them his ability to cultivate cancer cells and organisms, as he Inas claimed he is able to do, and that he also declined. to show that he was able to produce cancer by innoculation, or that he could in'n- munize animals against the disease. While feeling that the results of their investigations were very unsat- isfactory, the Council have expressed their willingness to investigate furth- er if Dr. Glover is ready to aid thein by supplying data which is now lack- ing with regard to his cases.
