...rapid march of events in England, Mr. Lansbury described the Dublin transport workers' strike. It has marked as important and as definite an epoch in the industrial history of England as did the great dock-workers' strike of the nineties, which heralded the birth of the new unionism.

The estimate really allows each student about five cents a day for alcoholic beverages. But the point that the story best illustrates is the staying quality of a good college news item. It has already been with us a year...
