The past week has been signallsed by the departure of His Excellency Sir Cecil Clementi to take up the so-called higher. (but not so important) post of Governor of the Straits Settlements and High Commissioner of the Federated Malay States.

A report also appears of the ceremony of swearing in the Officer Administering the Government, the Hon. Mr. Wilfred T. Soutborn.
The curtain has been rung down on the trial of Instone Brewer, who made a lengthy but vain appeal to the Judge before sentence was passed. The addresses of Brewer and the Judge are given in full in the Poerland China Mall,
