Senator Couzens following Mr. Neville Ghamberlain, was of the opinion that prices and debis must be tackled simul. taneously. Prices cannot be raised by monetary measures alone, he asserted. Governments must take the lead and encourage pri- vate enterprise to re-assumé its previous functions.
The United States Government were undertaking the longest pro- gramine of public works in the history of the world which will energise production and consumption everywhere, and if followed by other countries in concert, the United States would exert a steadying in fluence on foreign exchanges, he declared.-Reuter.

Britain beat America by 212 wins to 111⁄2 in the Ryder Cup four- somes at Southport yesterday. The eight singles matches will be play- ed to-day.
In missing an 18-inch putt on the last hole Percy Alliss robbed Britain of a win over the powerful Sarazen- Hagen combination.

Therefore the Soviet were most perplexed at the report of the incident.
He reiterated his assurance regarding the punishment of the guilty, but protested against the! action of the Japanese torpedo boat.
