[FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT:]

LosDos, October 30th... I learn on the authority of the Federation of British Industries that His Majesty's Government has decided to recognise the Chinese Trade Marks Law which was promulgated in May, 1923, and that this derision" has been formally communicated to the Chinese Government. In addition, the necessay steps have been taken for the issuing of a King's Regulation providing for the enforcement of the law in British Courts

WALSALL

Me · A. J. Cook, secretary of the Miners Federation, addressing meetings at Heath Hayes and at Pelsail, in Stof fordshire, decir ̈ed at both meetings that the Chief Conable of Staffordshire, in prohibiting his meetings was acting under the instruction of the coalowners, and that he had deliberately attempted to create a breach of the peace by send- ing hundreds of policemen into the dis- triet to be used."

Passages from Mr. Cook's speech at Headth Hayes were:

It is not so much what the police would have done, but what they would dare do

if we would allow them.

No greater evidence that the Chief Con-

the instruction of the coalowners is neces- say than his action.

Selling Papers. Changes and rumours of changes in newspaper ownership continue."

I sup pose it is inevitable since "big money" was attracted to Fleet Street. This week it is announced that Messrs. Berry, who own the Sunday Times, Daily Sketch, Sunday Herald and other journals, have made an offer to buy out the Amalgamat ed Press at a price of over £3,000,000. The Amalgamated Press is located in Fleetway House, an imposing building zear the Embankment, and from, there Answers" and something like 100 other periodicals and magazines are published to suit every taste and age and class. It was founded as a publishing business by Alfred Harmsworth, afterwards Lord Nörthelife, and his brother, the present Lord Rothermore, when the enterprising Alfred was in his twenties, and there fore long before he had any notion of starting in daily journalism with the Daily Mail. There are 6,000 employees at Fleetway House.

"

It has been rumoured in Fleet Street Iately that Lord tothermere's intereste are shifting more and more from the Press to other things, and it would not be a great. surprise if he parted with his holding in the Daily Mail and other publications except the Daily Mirror, of which he made a success after his brother had failed with it, and for which he hua an, almost sentimental regard.“.

New Line To Australia....

As may be supposed, great attention is paid to the proposal put forward to run a new mail service from here to Bombay and Australia half as fast again as existing services. There is good deal of criticism not altogether friendly, and the project would probably not re- ceive much serious consideration but for the fact that it is sponsored, not by finan- cial, maguntes but by technical experts, mcluding Sir John Biles and Sir Charles Parsons The most remarkable, feature

Talk of "Bribery."

At the Felsail meeting Mr. Cook said: The Chief Constable of Staffordshire has shown his deliberate bias in favour of the coalowners. There could have baen bloodshed,

"He sent here 500 men. It was com- mon talk before that the policemen had to live on bribery from the shopkeeper, publican, and the bookie.

These policemen were great big men, relected because of their physical stature I want to say deliberately that the only deduction to be drawn is they were brought here to be used.

Members of the Government have been making speeches sometimes after dinner in which they have made statements de- Į überately inciting people to attack" me.

CHANGES IN BANKİNG POLICY.

SIR JOSIAH STAMP ON NEED OF

MONETARY STABILITY.

Sir Josiah Stamp, speaking at Morley College, on the subject of Economic study and the Present Discontent," said that one of the most important things in economics to-day was money, and not merely the handling of hard cash and. notes, but the influence of money in distributing wealth and the product of industry.

Some of the best brains in the country were now being occupied with the pro- blem how to make the money measure that we had as good a measure and a reliable measure as other measures were. The value of money. Changes of money up war had wrought great differences in the set the whole organism of trade and com- merce. We had to try to introduce a stable kind of money. It was hoped that by new means being introduced in bank- ing policy the pound would be kept reasonably sure.

It would mean bringing Australia & week nearer to England, and India at least five days hearer. Experts are saying that the day of the Leviathan is done, and that in fature there will be smaller and faster liners.
