THE British people are
deeply unhappy.
T
They have enjoyed the summ- shine, they have taken their children to the seaside, many of them have danced and sung and laughed and enjoyed their holidays.
But, in spite of the glorious weather, there has been some- thing artificial in the gaiety. Underneath it all, everyone who cares for Britain is un- happy.
We have drifted into a crisis, which almost everyone, except the most ideologien) supporters of the Government, knew to be coming.

American Indians

American Indians are of oriental origin has been long a matter of dispute among anthropologists.
Dr. C. G. Salsbury, superintendent of Ganado Indian Mission hospital, identifies himself with the affirmative school of thought.
GANADO, Ariz.Whether
Dr. Salsbury, a missionary physician on the Island of Hainan off the south const of China from 1915 to 1926, declared that the Hainanese are "strikingly similar to the Navajos in ap- pearance" and that the languages of each are similar in many respects.
"The numerals 3, 4, 7, and 8 are practically identical," Dr. Salsbury said. "Many other com- mon words are not a great deal unlike.
"Some of the tools used by old-time Navajou are almost exnel duplientes of those used by the Chinese,"
"MONCOLIAN SPOT”
Dr. Salsbury further stated that every Navajo child is horn with what is commonly termed the "Mongolian, spot"—a small bluish discoloration over the backbone which lasts from a few hours to as long as two days. That, he explainéd, is a characteristic of oriental infants.
But Dr Salsbury's observations have gone much further than physical comparisons. Ho said the social customs of the Hainanese and Navajos also are "more than |coincidentally" similar, as--for example-the respect of chil- dren for their elders, hairdress, and the custom of old-time parents of both racial and na- tionality groups to select the marriage partners for their sous and daughters.
