A RUSSIAN DEBUT AT GENEVA NO DICTA. TORIAL LUXURY.

London, Sept. 18

M. Litvinoff's speech at Geneva was the first a representative of Russia has ever made in the an- | nual debate on the work of the League,

That fact did not deter the Soviet Minister from making a more critical survey of the League activities than any of the other delegates has done. ·

M. Litvinoff makes his speeches in English. It is bad English both in construction and delivery. Eng- fish-speaking delegates have to walt for the French translation before they know what he really meant to say.

If he wished M. Litvinoff, couia speak in Russian, but he would have

The League officially recognises only French and English, and anyone addressing it in another tongue has to produce an Interid preter.

BIRTHDAY

An important birthday falls to- dorrow. The American Constitu- tion enters on its 149th year.

One of President Roosevelt's last actions before leaving Washington was to sign a resolution naming Sept. 17, 1937, as the 150th anniver sary of its adoption. He did so with the remark, "The importance of the Constitution has grown con- tinually."
