LLOYD'S LIST
Continuous Publication For
of
Two Hundred Years
In the course of 1934 Lloyd's List has completed two hundred years publication. It continuous made its first appearance, from Lloyd's Coffee House in Lombard Street, during the year 1734. The exact date is unknown, for the files from 1734 to 1740 inclusive were burnt in the are which des- troyed the second Royal Exchange in 1833. And no copy of the paper earlier thah No. 560, dated Jan. 2, 1740 (1741 by modern reckoning), | is known to exist, but from calcula- tions based on the numbering and known days of publication it is cer- tain that the first issue was made in 1734, and almost certainly in theporation, his Spring of that year,
There is in London no other newspaper, except the "London Gazette (which is published only twice weekly), having so long a record of publication, the next

Washington, Dec. 18. Creation of a permanent $10;- 000,000,000 Federal Public Works Fund to battle future depressions before they gli iny headway was tecmended to-day by the Na- tional Resources Board.
The Board was recently appoint- ed by President Roosevelt to study the natural resources of the country and to recommend their. uses in the present as well as
future emergencies. Mr. Harold Ickes, Secretary of Interior, heads the Board.
A reserve programme of that magnitute, Involving a fund of $10,000,000,000 should be planned in advance and held in readiness to take up unemployment in the event of another industrial let- down, the Board's recommenda- tions stated.
There are many projects needed for public service on which as much sa $100,000,000 could be well spent during the next 20 or 30 years, said the Board.

*London; Dec. 5. Professor J. 8. Haldane, who has been awarded the Copley Medal for 1934, the highest honour in the gift of the Royal Society, is less familiar to the general public than his son, Professor J. B. S. Haldane, or his brother, the late
Lord Haldane.
Professor Haldane belleves that the only really satisfactory way to test the effect of anything on the human body is to try it not on the dog, but on himself.
