THE MYSTERIOUS MR. PAILIF
Kont
A MAN ON THE FUTURE. Mvelyn Wrench writes in the Daily Mail:
One of the most discussed men in the British Isles at the present time is Mr. Philip Kerr, the confidential secretary to ' Mr. Lloyd George, who played such a prominent part in the deliberations of the British delegates at the Peace Con- ference and is still more prominent as a result of the Prinkipo discussion of the past few days As far as the general. public is concerned, Mr. Philip Karr is more or less of an unknown quantity. although in official circles he has long been regarded as one of the powers. behind the throne and as one of the young men who have arrived."
tary of
Philip Kerr belongs to that class of young Briton which represents all that is best in our public life, and those who have the privilege of knowing him have long single for Foreign Affairs should bim out as a future Beore the job appeal to him. Under forty, good-looking, with classical features, in- tensely cultured, widely travelled, one to whose pature any idea of self-seeking is atteris foreign, there can be few youag men better fitted for high office.

When his friends heard that Philip Kerr bad been selected by Mr. Lloyd George as one of his confidential secre taries they felt that a better choice could not have been made. During the term of Mr. Lloyd George's Premiership and up to the meeting of the Peace Conference, Philip Kerr was always to be found in February 19th, 1920, at 10.30 AM at No. 10,

I met him lunching with a friend one Saturday, and as we had a few hours to spare he suggested that we should go to a Kroisler concert at the Queen's Hall. Un that occasion our conversation turned largely on music, and it was not until later that I learned to appreciate his wido grasp of Imperial problems
Shortly afterwards, as editor of The Round Table that most remarkable Im-
perial quarterly which has, I suppose, had a greater influence in disseminating reliable knowledge about the British En pire than any
other publication-be first began to be known in London. In 1919 I met him again at Vancouver on bis re- turn from the Far East, and, listening to him speak at one of the weekly gather ings of the Vancouver, Canadian Club. my previous opinion as to his breadth of vision was confirmed, and my last meet ing with him as one of the characters in the Two Gentlemen of Verona "in the Coronation Shakespeare ball

Mr. Kerr has spent much time travel- ling in the Far East, India, the Balkans, Canada, the United States and elsewhere, atudying world problems at first hand
Whether he will ultimately decide to go into politics or not I do natknow, but whatever his sphere of activities I am quite certain that he will be working unostentatiously, without any hope of reward, for the benefit of his fellows.
CHINESE IN MALAYA, A TRIBUTE BY SIR FRANK SWETTENHAM,
Sir Frank Swettenham at the Straits Dinner said:-I should like to say two words to you, because I think we have One is made a record as regards time. that on some forgotten occasion we met, also at a dinner of this Association, and afterwards when it was reported in
Singa pore I was charged with having said notaing about the Chiness. I have said nothing about the Chinese to-night and the reason is that it was my duty to pro- pose the health of the guests and there were no Chinese guests, but I have already put on record my opinion that the Chinese laid the foundations of the
prosperity of the Malay States, and they have
conting ed to do so, although not to the same extent, because my own countrymen have, at the ninth or tenth or eleventh bour. come in to show them something they did not understand, and that is planting on a very large scale. I feel that the Chinese are also responsible to a very large extent for the position which the Colony holds to-day, and what I have put on record No words could be said I adhere to, that are too strong to show the great intelligence and enterprise of the Chineso in the Colony udd in the Federated Malay States-(Applause.)
PAWNING THE GUILLOTINE.
Although our bangman complains of being underpaid, he is not driven to such desperate, straits as Charles Banson, Damianka and grandson of the execu tioner of Louis XVI. This degenerate Sanson ran heavily into debt, and, having exhausted all other means of raising money, pawned the guillotine.

before He was able to redeem the pledge, he had to confess his misdemeanour to the authorities, who forthwith relieved him of his functions. The publisher, Dupray de la Mahorie, then persuaded him to write his memoirs. Banson con- sented only on condition that, the work should be published exactly as he wrote it. That shall be so," Dupray assured him. We will cut nothing, not even the chapter heads." Sanson's memoirs, which ran to eight volumes, proved such a huge sucos that the publisher por. suaded a hack writer of the day to follow it up with another work bearing the inspiriting title Memoirs of the Scaffold."Morning Post..
