For the first time in a quarter of a century a passenger train ran from Yeadon, Yorks recently. It carried over 500 people to More cambe, and the whole town turned out to set it off, people being at the station at dawn. Because of the small platform only one coach could be entered at a time.

The balance sheet indicates Then comes a string of vituperative: epithets about the Parliamentary muck-heap. The Deputies are de nounced in language that would be unprintable in England. What Marshal PILSUDSKI really wishes to convey in his latest scatological masterpiece is not at all clear, The commonest interpretation pat upon it is that he thinks the Con- stitution ought to be changed, but does not care very much how it is done. A public man who behaves in this extraordinary manner may be eane, but six months' imprison ment is a very severe penalty for doubting his sanity.

by a combination of circumstances, he is very rarely able to quote that competitive price or rather a price which is lower, or no higher, than thore submitted by his many keen competitors. Once the little word "if" is eliminated, the rest is easy!

The Chairman of the Economic Mission, Six ERNEST THOMPSON, in an interview just before his depar- ture from London, spoke of the decline in Britain's proportionate share of China's trade. "It was essential for British industry that the Mission should discover the reasons for this, and in what re- spects their competitors were meet- ing more closely than they wern the requirements in China; also what eteps they must take to bring to consumers in China the goods they wanted. In other words, "f" British industry can provide China with what she wants at a price she is willing to pay, Britain will re- gain her proportionate share of the country's trade. Mr. Sawat has already told British manufacturers and merchants what the Economic Mission is now on its way to the Far East to find out!
