A reply tn the House of Com- mons on Wednesday in relation to the personnel of the Fleet Air Arm is causing a good deal of discussion in both the Navy and Air Force. Commander Marsden asked the First Lord whether the Admiralty intended to alter the existing arrangements with the Air Council for the purpose of enabling naval petty officers to qualify as pilots in the Fleet Air Arm under the same conditions as sergeant pilots of the Royal Alt Force now employed in the FAA, Sir Bolton Byres Monsell stated in reply that the existing arrange- ments were the result of B Government decision made n 1938 and could not be altered by departmental action.

SINO-BRITISH GATHERING

Queen Elizabeth's accession (November 17, 1558) seems to have frequently evoked congratulations due to the change from her sister's reign, but irrespective of any specific period in her own; and her twenty-fifth year (1582-3) passed with no such celebrations as her thirtieth, which culminated in a public holiday, bonfires, and a service at "St. Paul's, attended by the Queen and the City Com-

THE MIDDLE AGES

For earlier reigns of 50 years we have to go back to Edward III in 1377 and Henry III in 1266. But Edward III's jubilee year was marked by the famous "Good" Parliament, so called for the dis- content it expressed with the Royal' misgovernment; and Henry TIL, in 1280, had barely emerged from the Barons war and the defeat of Simon de Montfort, Nor
