WEDNESDAY, MAY 28, 1924..
London, May 27.
Their Italian. Majesties, Crown Prince and Princess Mafalda- this morning visited Westminster Abbey and the Cenotaph. Victor Emmanuel placed a wreath on the tomb of the Unknown Warrior. He also placed wreath at the base of the Cenotaph. In the presence of representatives of the navy and army and the air force a large crowd cheered the royal vieltors as they drove back to the palace- Renter.
Rome, May 27.
The visit of their Italian Majesties to England has been the occa- alon of copious articles in the press. The Idea Nazional attributes. to the credit of Premier Mussolin! the solution of the Jubaland ques- tion which it says has been poisoning Anglo-italian relations. The Fascist organ Impero declares that the happy solution of the Juba- land problem is doubtless the starting point for more complete Anglo-Italian understanding and adds that Italy is anxious to recon- and Asin. quer an empire and is looking with falth toward Mussolini who began with Jubaland. Italians must perservere In Africa Tribuna says that Italy greeted joyfully. the advent of labour to power in Britain because a continuance of Mr. Curzon's foreign policy rendered a' Jubaland agreement impossible, while the en- lightened mind of Mr. Macdonald found a settlement.--Reuter.
THE LAUSANNE. TREATY,
"London, May 27.
A singular Imperial problem is revealed by the pulsieation of much discussed correspondence between the Colonini Office and the Canadian Government relative to the Lausanne Treaty. It shows that in contrast with the peace treaties with Germany, Austria and Dominions representatives. Bulgaria, which were signed by the Canada objected to appending her signature to this treaty, contend- ing that the procedure adopted at Lausanno differed from that adopted in negotiating the treatles abovementioned, and as no to have as Invitation was expended to Canada to participate at the Lausanne Turkey. Conference, Canada could not have been believed direct and Immediate intérest in the negotiations with as she had in the conferences at Versailles and Washington. 1 was then agreed that the Treaty of Lausanne should be signed only by the British plenipotentiarles, whereto Australia, New Zealand and South Africa agreed. Canada was subsequently asked to concur in the ratification of the Treaty. She replied on 24th March that on the foregoing grounds she could not recommend' the Canadian Parliament to approve the Treaty, and without parliamentary ap proval she was unwarranted in concurring in the ratification. Her Ministers, however, "will not take exception to such course as His Majesty's Government, may been advisable to recommend.”—Reuter.

THE INDIAN CIVIL SERVICE. ''
London, May 27.
A big step forward in the direction of the Indianisation of the superior civil services of India is recommended in the report of the Royal Commission presided over by Viscount Lee, which has buen touring India. It urges that the Indian Civil Service should com- prise 60 per cent. of Indians, compared with 39 per cent. at present; Police Service, 50 per cent. instead of 33 per cent; Forests, 75 per cent; Engineers 60 per cent. It also recommends improvements of pay and pensions, and concessions as regard passages home for officers and their wives.
The Commission further recommends that the educational, agrl cultural and certain other services be henceforth recruited and con- trolled by focal governments instead of the State Secretary.-Reuter,
