WHERE BRITISH POWER LIES.
Since: it has become known that
King George has indicated a desire
to see Lord Mayor MacSwiney, who
has been on a hunger strike in Brix-
ton prison, pardoned, many have
wondered why the king did not par-
don the prisoner himself, and be done
with the case.
The failure of the king to act has
aroused much interest in the subject
of the pardoning prerogatives of the
British crown, and those who. have
looked into the matter have
that in .actual practice the king of
England has less power than
president of a Republic, and less even
the "it was impracticable.
ship
Great Britain and Ireland,
. British dominions, and emperor of
India, can not release from prison
Terence MacSwiney, without the con-
sent of Mr. Lloyd George, a Welsh-
man whose power continues only so
12 as he holds popular confidence.

FORD SOON TO OPEN
TECHNICAL INSTITUTE
Petroit.—Establishment by the
\-f'ord Motor Company of an educa-
i tional department to be known as
the Ford Technical Institute, with
university rank, which will grant de-
grees in mechanical, electrical and
chemical engineering, is announced.
Complete courses will be made
available to the more than 75,000
employees of the Ford company
| without charge. An academic de-
partment will be established and
try who imagine that King George is |
the ruler of Great Britain, and
much of the hostility to
among certain classes is based on the
erroneous idea that royalty controls
the English government.
This incident should serve to en-
lighten Americans as to the relative
powers possessed - by the English
monarch and the American chief ex-
ecutive.
