I hear there has been speculation.. as to the arrange- ments which will be made when. their Majesties attend the launch- ing of the new Cunarder
Though the platform from which the King and Queen perform the ceremony will probably be 50ft from the ground. a It will obvi- ate any difficulty in reaching' it. Many of these are now in daily use in the construction of No. 534. The Royal Interest in the new liner is, indicated by the fact that Queen Mary has not named a liner since she was Princess of Wales.

SHUNTING THEM OFF
Lord Ponsonby has added an-. other to the suggestions made from time to time for relieving the country of the services of Cabinet Ministers in the public interest. On the whole; his suggestion that the Prime Minister and Sir John Simon should be asked to "Join some Polar expedition to be away for two or three years" may be accounted little more drastic than some which have been made in the past, even if we do not know whether, the Polar part of it had any reference to the vague benevolence of Mr. MacDonald and the possibly bracing effect on it of low temperatures or to Sir Johni Simon's smile.
