The logan "We want Hutch son" has been chalked along the A hool walks, and parents are threatening to remove their boys if Mr. Hutchison definitely relin- quishes his post.

Lieutenant-Colonel Hutchison, who is famous as soldier, author, artist, educationist and publicist, accopted the appointment of Prin- eipal of the Chivaji Military School last June. It was then stated that his appointment was regarded with appreciation throughout Indin..

There was no foundation, Sir Robert, Horne asserted, for saying that Scotland was being unfairly "We should trented financially. have to bear our own burdens," he added, "and it would obviously be beneath our dignity, if wo set up for ourselves, to look to anybody else for grants-in-aid. It is dif- fleult to see how in matters of finance a Scottish Parliament can exercise any additional powers of a practical kind without injury to the nation's welfare. The truth is that the interests of all the parts of this island are so interlocked that any attempt to separate legis- lative authorities must create in- surmountable difficulties.
