'London, June 6. This year's Hawthornden Prize will be presented on Tuesday next. What is undoubtedly our premier literary award was instituted in 1919 by Miss Alice Warrender. It is given for "a work of imagina- tion by a British author whose, age does not exceed, forty-one."

MR. CHAMBERLAIN'S FLAND
As I indicated recently, it was obvious that President Roosevelt's acceptance of any compromise on war debts would be most unlikely to be ratified, and that the Pre- sident himself." in view of the November Congressional elections, could not take such a course..
The view that the President himself would be pleased at a British point-bank refusal as the best way out of the war debts ini- passe receives partial confirmation from the fact that the Cabinet's decision was only taken after Sir Roriald Lindsay, our Washington Ambassador, had had an interview With him!

Herr Hitler, who, I believe, en- tertains a keen personal regard for the character and ability of Dr. Bruening, was at one time credited with the intention of offering him the post of Foreign Minister of the Reich.
But whatever the Chancellor's own. feelings, party reasons made it impossible to overlook Dr. Bruen- ing's attempt to suppress the Nazi storm-troops.
More unlikely, things, however. might happen than Herr Hitler deciding to use Dr. Bruening's great diplomatic qualities.
