1931, has the Not even in the stormy days of September, House of Commons had a debate carried through in such a sus- tained atmosphere of hest, as last night's debate on Sanctions.
The debate was exceptional in that the first Ave speeches came from the two dispatch boxes, which meant that the House remained full from four until after seven. Feel ing always ruhs, higher in a full House:
Cheers, ironic laughter and in- terjections punctuated the speeches of Mr. Eden, Mr. Greenwood and Mr. Lloyd Ceorge.
The Prime Minister once again proved himself a "House of Com- mons man by the quiet atten tion he drew even from the most hostile section of the Socialists,
Mr. Baldwin was the briefest of the chief speakers. He rose ear- lier than he had intended because of a wild clamour from the Op-. position for him to reply at once to Mr. Lloyd George's attack.
That noisy clamour made the Prime Minister's achievement in obtaining so respectful" & hearing the more temarkable.
THE OLD "L. G."
Mr. Lloyd George was in his old form All sides of the House joined jin the laughter, at his plcsure of the Government "leading" at Geneva, ending with the phrase running away now-still icading." The Chancellor he called the i heir to the throne who was trying on the crown. The Government be accused of jumping about like a "flying fiea".
Mr. Lloyd George lost his audi- ence, however, when his criticism of the Government "golog.forward with no resolute alm, sometimes moving to the right and some- times to the left," was capped by a voice which remarked: "Just like the old Coalition "
TELLING THE FUEHRER
Prince Louis, Ferdinand of Prussia took tea on the Terrace of the House of Commons yesterday afternoon. His host was Mr. Henry Channon.
At six he left Croydon for Berlin by air. He had to miss the end of the debate, because he had arrang- ed to go to a party in Berlin in the evening.
There Prince Louis Ferdinand, who is the second son of the ex- Crown Prince, and the ex-Kaiser's helr, was to tell the Fuehrer of the Impressions he had gathered from the debate.
Prince Louis Ferdinand had nu difficulty in following the speeches. forme: Like all members of the German Imperial family, he speaks good English.
His English, has been rendered more robust, less polished, by the time he spent as a mechanic. in the Ford works at Detroit,
LORD CECIL ON SANCTIONS An interesting point, in view of the Opposition's agitation for a continuation of. Sanctions though the war is over, is the authorita- tive pronouncement of Lord Cecil on their purpose.
In the debate in the House of Lords on Oct. 24, he said that he regretted the talk of Sanctions. because Sanctions, to the Engilsh mind; imply something in the na- tare of punishment. That is really not the conception of the Coven ant of the League of Nations, you read it carefully. It is not punishment at all."
In the same passage Lord Cecil reiterated that "the whole point is prevention."
He then went on to say:
There is no provision, no sug gestion, of any punishment of the aggressor as far as Article 16 is concerned. " Once a War ceases the obligation to exert Sanctions under the Article ceases also. The war has ceased,
"NOT IN THE STUD BOOK" Lord stanley's great filly, Quash- ed, winner of the Oaks last year, and the heroine of yesterday's rac- ing at Ascot, where she kept the the Gold Cup from going to Am- erica, is not in the Stud Book-a} fact which will doubtless surprise the general public, and many rac-. ing" men
Quashed's dam,' Veract, the winner of the Cambridgeshire in 1623, was not eligible for inclusion in the register of thoroughbreds. Her daughter, Quashed. is there- tore also barred.
Many a good horse, owing to Bone technical flaw in breeding, or doubt as to parentage, is deburred from the exclusive pages of the Shid Book, This, by the way, is a
B particularly sore point with Am- erican breeders.
For all that. when the stock of Quashed come to be offered in the sale-ring, I have no doubt the fact that their data is "not in the Stud Book" will bave no effect what- ever on the high prices they will fetch..
WHEN "G, K." DREW
Many
appreciative references have been made to Mr. G. K. Ches- terton's skill as a draughtsman which he acquired at the Slade School,
Here I reproduce one of his drawings which dates from a still earlier period. His illustrations to Mr. E. C. Bentley's "Biography for Beginners were made when they were, schoolboys together at St. Paul's,
It is inspired by a previously un- known incident in the life of Str Christopher Wren
Sir Christopher Wren Sald. "I am going to dine with
some men.
If anybody calls,
15
Say I am designing St. Paul's." I quote this with greater pleasure because I have found in the last (ew days many people attribut- ung Mr. Bentley's witty lines to Mr. Chesterton, HOCKS WHICH "COMPASS AGE" In the discussion as to whether the 1933 and 1934 hocks are going to equal the great 1921 wines. I would suggest that it is still a little early to tell.
I have tasted some Palatinate 33s and 34s which ought to rival the ls, but I should not yet like to commit myself or my pocket
It will be hard to equal the annus mirabilis o 21. It had all the essentials required for producing great hock

There was an even temperature in May: the three "lee days," when the ice is melting in the mountains and produces a cold snap in the Rhine Valley, were not rigorous; and the vine flowered in warm weather.
The test of the sumuner was hot and dry, with just a little rain be fore the vintage to swell the gra- pas to the point where they split.
"NOBLE CORRUPTION"
Then appeared the longed-for Ifttle grey fungus Botrytis cinereas called "Edelsaule" by the Germans and "la pourriture noble" by the French, which makes the greatest wines.
One advantage the 33s and 34 will have over the 21s. The excell- ence and abundance of the "21 vintage took the growers and ship pers by surprise. Since then more scientific methods of exploiting their success have been evolved.
LORD BALFOUR'S SPEECHES Neither Lord Crawford nor any of other speaker in the House Lords debate on reading Parlia- mentary speeches mentioned the case of Sir William Harcourt. He was an unblushing offender, both in the House and on the public platform.
Even a reading desk did not seem to interfere with the apparently extempore flow of speech. The art- ful old gladiator was up to every theatrical trick of pausing for the appropriate word and waiting for the unexpected laugh.
Lord Balfour lost all interest in any man's speech, however good, the inement he detected that it had been prepared and learnt by heart-so strongly did he feel that speech to be effective must be im- promptu.
Half-a-dozen words aus alde- mémoires on a half-sheet of note- paper or a long envelope were all he allowed himself.
MR. ROOSEVELT'S MYSTERY I Have just been reading "The President's Mystery Story." which appears to-day. The President is Mr. Roosevelt, and the mystery is
his...
For many years he has been haunted by a problem. This is, "How can a man disappear with $5,000,000 in any. negotiable form and not be traced?"
One day he told Mr. Fulton. Our- sler. And Mr. Oursler asked six American quthors to solve it.
The hero is an unhappy 43-year- old youngster with $7,000,000 and a Russian wife who sometimes has not come home by breakfast time. Between the dollars and the lady the sir authors keep up the my- stery with
a skip in handling situations which Mr. Roosevelt has applied to politics.

"Wherever we fought with the British Navy, at Jutland, Coronel. or elsewhere, we learned to respect in them foes of like race and chat- acter, true to their glorious-tradi- tions. They had, like ourselves, a single alm in view-that of making the utmost sacrifice in fulfiling their duty to their country.
· "To-day, on the 20th anniversary of the Battle of Jutland, the Ger- man Navy, as it bows its head in the solemn hour before its dead and those of its brave alifes. unites with the British Navy in common remembrance of the men who on both sides died an herole seaman's death while the guns thundered in the greatest naval Aght of all times. They died performing their duty as the honour of their flag com- reanded."
