NEVER LIKELY.

BRITISH DICTATOR. COULD NOT FLOURISH. Democratic Institutions Indigenous. ttj&. BALDWIN EXHORTS YOUTH (British Official Wireless.) (Received 1 p.m.) RUGBY, March C. Iu a broadcast address to the schools, Mr. Stanley Baldwin expressed his strong belief that dictatorships, whether from the Right or Left would not flourish on British soil where democratic institutions were indigenous. He admitted that a dictator might do much when in power, but one thing he could not do was to create another dictator. When he went, chaos often resulted. Mr. Baldwin said that he appreciated that the young were always in a hurry, and possibly those two alien growths, Communism and Fascism, might appeal to some. Britain was a free country in which either creed might be supported in safety, but he believed that if British people in great numbers became adherents of either Communism or Fascism, there could bo only one end—civil war. Adjuring youth to take its share in the responsibilities of public life, Mr. Baldwin said: "If you do so, use your common sense and avoid logic, love your fellow men, have a profound faith in your own people, grow the hide of a rhinoceros and you will find all the adventure you want, for it is indeed endless."
