...Labor Government of Ramsay MacDonald has apparently accomplished, among its other feats, something not wholly political. Whether consciously in order to smooth the way of affairs of state, or unconsciously as a sign of the times, the Carleton Club of London, which in the popular mind is the symbol of all that is most sacred to the British aristocracy, threw open its doors last week to some fifty odd sons of toil and bade them welcome to its Saturday luncheon.
