JEST THAT MISFIRED

ENLARGING BRITISH

EMPIRE

Argentina is angry!

"And all over a chance remark probably made in a spirit of jest, that she should join the British Empire.

The culprit is Sir Arthur Sam- ucl, a former Minister for Over seas Trade, and at one time. Under Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs.

It appears that recently ho gave an interview apropos the visit of the "Argentine Mission to London, for publication in South America. Buenos Ayres reports this reaction:

the and

Sir Arthur Samuel's recent sug gestion that Argentina "should become a fully-fledged member of the British Empire" has provoked a storm of indignation here. La Prensa characterises auggestion as "absurd" "mortifying," while the Herald, voicing Anglo-Argentine opinion, declares that Sir Arthur's sug gestion is "clownish" and "con- stitutes the supreme safe of our time."

The reported interview also states that Sir Arthur Samuel was supported by Mr. Josiah Wedgwood, who added that ha thought Denmark shodd also join the Empire."

A News-Chronicle representa- tive saw Sir Arthur Samuel, and asked:

"Were you joking when you made the invitation ?"

Sir Arthur merely laughed. "Do you think that the Argen- tine should become part of the British Empire?"

"The whole world should be- come part of the British Empire," déclared Sir Arthur emphatically.

KIPLING DICTIONARY

CDR. LOCKER-LAMPSON'S TRIBUTE

W

Commander: Oliver Locker-Lamp- son, who spoke at a meeting of the Kipling Society at Rubens Hotel, S.W., suggested that a Kip ling dictionary should be prepared.. It would contain not merely the words he had invented. but the technical terms which he had har- nessed to a literary vehicle for the first time.

Kipling, he said, impounded and improved professional terms, and what some considered a vulgar and mechanical contrivance became a magical instrument in his hands.

Kipling could have easily satis fied specious present-day needs and the modern passion for indelicate indiscretion, added Commander Locker-Lampson, He might have fed a debilitated public taste with novels which were naughty and memoirs which were septic with

sex.

"The best of Kipling, I believe, will outlast the best of any con- temporary," he concluded, "and if we were alive a thousand years hence, when England would per haps no longer be an island, India might have gone, every Viceroy and ruler forgotten, and even Gand- hi might be a ghost, 'Mandalay' would be still sung and loved."
