Miss Round Puts Dudley

**On The Map

Dudley gave a civic reception yes- ferday to Miss Dorothy Round, the Wimbledon tennis finalist. Thou sands assembled outside the Town Hall to watch her rival, the town was decorated with flags and bunting, and bands played in the

squares.

At the reception the Mayor (AI- derman Golding) said that Miss Bound had done more for Dudley the most of them realised. Her performances had brought her home town to the notice of the whole world, and her achievements were the result of sheer merit, for she had received little encouragement outside her own town. They be Lieved she would go farther still,

and they expected her to go to the United States and play a leading part in winning the Wightman Cup for Britain

A sensation was created yester day, when the leading Japanese newspaper, ass, published the full text of the alleged secret treaty, consisting of three Chap ters with 17 Articles and four Annexes. It is reported to give America full privileges and re- sponsibility for the organisation of the Chinese Air Force, and stipulates that America shall sup-| Ply China with half of the neces sary funds estimated at G.840,- 000,000 for the construction" of 835 planes.

Lord Wakefield's patriotic gift to the British Museum of Nelson's own log-book reminds me of the equally generous act of Lord Woolavington on June 30, 1919, when, as Mr. James Buchanan, "he saved for the nation (at £5,000) the Victory log-book kept by that bluff sailing master, Thomas, Atkinson.
