PALO ALTO, Cal. (By Mail). Settling down into private life after more than a decade and u halt of eventful public service, former. President and Mrs. Hoover are finding their days far from dull.

They're thriving under a routine less waighed down by responsibili ties than those characterizing their years in the White House and in public life preceding.

London. The Duke of Leinster was the debtor in three judgment summonses which came before Mr. Justice Luxmoore in the Chancery Division.

Mr. Cyril Conner, counsel for the Duke of Leinster, asked if the summons could stand over.

Mr. Justice Luxmoore said he was not going to allow the matter to stand over. On the last occasion Mr. Justice Olauson made an or dor. In two summonses which had since been issued it was necessary to obtain an order for substituted service.

BANGKOK, June 7. The opium problem is ever with the authorities. In the north and north-east the country is being flooded with illicit opium which is not surprising as the cultivation of the poppy is on the increase in the neighbouring Shan States.
