The secretary's utterances were mainly a reiteration of the address which' he made at Brusy in the name of Sir Austen Chamberlain, British foreign secre- tary, France is attempting to justify the continuance of the occupation of German territories with the excuse that these territories must serve as a pledge for German reparations pay- ments. Nobody . doubts Germany's willingness to fulfill the Dawes plan obligations and everybody must rec- ognize the difficulties, economic and others, caused by the occupation which i3.impeding the liquidation of the payments, Taegliche Rands- chau says, adding that under the circumstances it is an amazing fact that the British cabinet is adopting the French thesis, STOCKHOLM'S LIBRARY IS BEST IN EUROPE Stockholm, Sweden, May 14, The Public Library of Stockholm, with the latest arrangements, free access "for the public to the books without guarantees of fees and said to be unparalleled in Europe, was opened recently in the pres- ence of Crown Prince Gustaf Adolf, the Mayor of Stockholm and digni- taries of the realm and of the city. The library building, designed by the Swedish architect, E. G, As- plund, built in a simple but strik- ing style, has been placed at the corner of two busy thoroughfares in a central part of the eity, It contains 150,000 volumgs, of which 50,000 are directly aecessible to the public without assistance or in- tereference on the part of the libra- rians. Three branches of this city librayy are located in various parts of Stockholm, containing 650,000 volumes, the complete stock of books of the library thus totalling 200,000 volumes, - Besides the City Library Stock- holm hag some thirty special libra- ries, such as the Royal Library, the greatest one in Sweden, dating from about 1523; the Nobel Li- brary of foreign fiction and poetry, said to contain the most complete collection in its line now existing; the Stockholm City Archive, dating from the Middle Ages, as well as those of the Academy of Science, the Academy of History, the Acad- emy of Art, ete, all fofnded some centuries ago.

It is worth considering the quali to the race, but to the island and to the climate as well, writes Viscount Grey Fallodon in the London Daily Express. Take, for instance, how much in the English race is Norman. There were plenty of Normans left on the other side of the Channel after the Norman Conquest of England. There were more Normans there than in England; but being on part of the Continent, they became absorbed and merged, whereas those who remained in the island develeped their own particular character and qualities, The Climate Next I come to the climate. It is never so hot as to depress energy and never. so cold or inhospitable as to make labor impossible or, unremuner- ative, We have had a climate which has been stern enough to make ef- fort necessary, but at the same time mild enough to give full reward to that effort when it was put forth, Now I come to the race in respect of its favorable environment. What are the characteristics of the race which seem to stand out in history? First, there is no doubt that ft comes of stout stock, Our ances- tors, the Danes, the Saxons, and the Normans, were pioneers, and the English have remained pioneers ever since, That accounts to a con- siderable extent for what it has done in the world, It is natural for people who are pioneers to have a real passion for individual liberty, and that stands out in our history, I think, as one of our great characteristics, Every Englishman has in him somewhere, I think, a root of being a rebel against authority, He does not like to be told what to do, he does not like to obey; and that comes from that very energy which made our ancestors pioneers, but which also made them strong individuals with a passion for individual liberty and doing as they pleased. Sense of Order I put that as one outstanding qual- ity. That by itself would have re- sulted in chaos, every man going his own way. But there was something in the English race which corrected what would otherwise have been this great defect, It became permeated with a sense that order was neces- sary, Now I come to limitations in the English race which follow partly, I think, from our qualities, I have said nothing about the religious and moral character of the British race, but not because it does not exist, It is quite true that when once the Brit- ish race is confronted clearly with an issue which it understands to be an issue between what js right and what is wrong there is an uprising of conscience. But the British race has also had a very material side, We get angry when foreign nations say we are a materialistic race, a nation of shop- keepers and so forth, We do not think that a true judgment of us be- cause we are conscious that there is a real moral sense in the English race; but, at the same time, we ought to remember that there is a very real strain of materialism in us, too. Therefore, in dealing with charac- teristics shown in English public life, I have been taking-these instincts for truth and for order, rather than any great ideal, because, as a mat- ter of fact, being a practical people, we have been doing practical things throughout our history, Practical People Though we are quite capable of re- sponding to ideals and have a real moral sense, when you look through our history--and it is ne discredit to us--the fact is that we have had to deal with practical problems and find solutions; and it is because we are a practical people that we have found solutions rather than the fact that we have gone out into the world as crusaders with any ideals we cher- ished at the moment, I would sum up the matter by say- ing this: Without the energy of the original stock in the English race we would have been a supine people and would have done very little. Without that strong sense of necessity of or- der, the very energy we had would have produced chaos, Without the practical sense which made one thing lead to another there would not have been continuity of action and we should not have developed and grown and built up. If we had our compass at the time, and have made wreck where, as a matter of fact, we have achieved success. If I were to sum up in one tence the quality which has belped the British race velopment, I think I would put i in this way: That it power to combine with the for individual liberty the sense the necessity of order, pis: 2 POLICE MISS THIEVES CROWD TAKES CASH Now York, May 14.--A bandit automobile abandoned at Wash- ington and Rector streets today by five hard-pressed gunmen was looted by while 1i the fleel bold-up men. The bandits had obtained $2,785 in cash from 2-3 South street. Of that sum about $200 was found on the floor of the abandoned automobile after police had chased the public away.

ADMIRAL INSPECT) Glittering Procession Goes 'All Over Ship Keenly Followed oF samiat iapection The HA ing the two men and knocking | pai; out, of drills and instructions, has been gradually developed, writes a re- tired naval officer in the London Daily Express, As the fateful day draws near the various officers of divisions may be observed at any time of the day con- sidering how best to dissociate them- selves from respomsibility in connec- tion with some particularly uncared for area. " "Opening Gambit" The following conversation reveals a stereotyped opening gambit and appfopriate reply: Lieutenant "A™: I say, old chap, I thought you might like to know that ladder of yours from A to B is in a pretty grim state, My ladder? 1 Lieutenant "B": don't think! Even if it was my lad- der, which it isn't, I suppose you'll agree that if your sailors had the decency to wipe their boots before using it the blinkin' thing wouldn't be in such a beastly state. Finally the great man arrives. The band plays, the Royal Marine guard presents arms, the officers are intro- duced "by the Navy List," the men are inspected and mustered "by the ledger," after which starts the main business of the morning, the tour round every hole and corner in the ship. The main body of the glittering procession forms up, headed by the admiral; the captain follows with all his heads of departments close be- hind them their "second dickeys," the men who do the work, as their prompters, behind them again the chief petty officers, who really know the answers to the posers about to be put by the inspecting officer, In the rear is a horde of midshipmen, Weary Procession The pr moves off in great to Oscar Fried, and was estimated by Berlin musical circles as one of the most active and serious con- ductors, style, swords clanking, polished boots shining, white gloves spotless, An hour or two later the same pro- cession, a shadow of its former STOWAWAY GETS CHANGE INU. German Youth Freed by Im- migration--Will Become Reporter New York, May 15,--Johans Thoe- nig, who decided he would rather risk his life than continue working in Duisberg, Germany, will have his chance to make good in America, On April 20, Johans stole down to the pier at Hamburg, Germany, and saw handlers placing freight aboard the steamer Cleveland, He had three marks and a determination, He gave three boys a marl apiece, had them pack him in a freight box and place the box aboard the steam- er. Last Thursday his scanty supply of food and water gave out, But he said nothing, The Clever land arrived Monday, and some freight handler tipped the box so that Johans was upside down, He stood that about 10 minutes and then shouted for help, Although he had a passport, he had no fare, and was sent to Ellis Island, Friday Senator Robert [agner and Representative William Cohen, after a New York newspaper ha promised the youth a job, succeeded in having Johans freed from Ellis Island, The boy will be given a chance to earn some of the wealth he learned America had--wealth he hopes to use in aiding his mother, who is ill in Diusberg--by working as a reporter on the newspaper, QUEBEC TO AUCTION WATER POWER LEASE Quebec, May 14, -- On May 23 the Government of the Province of Quebee will offer on lease, at pub- lic auction, to be held in the sales room of the Parliament Build- ings, the rights of the Govern- ment in the water powers of the St, Maurice River, from its con- fluence with the Manquane River downward to the prolongation of the dividing line between the Townships of Dumoulin and Val- lieres, in the County of Cham- plain, Interested parties will be under the obligation to deposit $1,000,- 000 by accepted cheque to the or- der of the Minister of Lands and Forests at least ten days before the auction.
