School, which, in recent years has become such a popular feature of the Royal Empire Society's annual programme, will once again be held at Oxford, from July 16-23. Thus, after one year at Bristol, it is returning once more to its original venue.

Owing to the particularly large number of visitors to England this year, it is probable that more than ever will take the opportunity, of attending the school, where they can enjoy discussions on a wide range of Empire subjects" amia the delightful surroundings of the University.

Meetings of the School will be held in Rhodes House, the head- quarters of the Rhodes Trust. The provisional programme of speakers certainly gives promise of some extremely Interesting addresses covering a wide field. To mention but a few. names there are Bir Thomas Inskip, Minister for the Co-ordination of Defence; Mr. W. 8. Morrison, Minister of Agricul ture: M.
