Hon, Philip Snowden as their member in Parliament, electors of Colne Valley, Yorkshire, need look no further to find one very adequate reason for supporting the Labor party, says Richard Carrow, Conservative candi- date against Snowden in the last gen- eral elections, in a letter to the York. shire local press. Mr, Carrow has now joined the Labor Party, Carrow adds he has always been a Socialist at heart, inasmuch as he sympathizes with the unfortunate and desires to help in eradicating the an« omalies, injustices and inequalities "of our common existence," Mr, Snowden had a majority of 9,135 in the election, with a vote of 21,667; 12532 votes were cast for Cars row and 10,630 for F, Brook, Liberal, "John, why are you so excited?" demanded Mrs, Dumbell, who had accompanied him to the ball game, "Didn't you see that feller way out there by the fence catch that fiy?"" he demanded, "Don't be absurd," she snapped, "you couldn't see a fly that far away : This will be a familiar sight te the fans who are fortunate enough to view the impending world series classic, between the Chicage Cubs will direct the Athleties from the dug-out, during play. RED TAPE BARRED IN FORMING BANK U.S. Banker Heads Dele gates Organizing World Institution re Baden-Baden, Germany, Oct, § The United States was again placed in the position of leader in settling Europe's post-war problems, when the bankers of seven nations Thurs. day unanimously elected Jackson Reynolds, New York banker, chair- man of the organization committee of the Bank for International Set- tlements, Mr, Reynold's first act as chairs man was a tribute to Foreign Minis. ter Gustav Stresemann of Germany, whose sudden death shocked all the delegates, : In the name of the committee Mr Reynolds paid tribute to "the servis ces which Dr, Stresemann contribu- ted to the reconstruction of Europe and the re-establishment of world peace" He said these could "scarce- ly be overestimated." Accordingsto Dr, Hjalmar Schacht, head of the Reichsbank and chief of the German delegation, the commit. tee intends to draw up a' complete pian of organization for the new ank, which the Young plan provided for, This will jnclude the choice of a location, about which there have been signs of disagreement among the big' powers, wet Choose a Site Dr, Schacht, when reminded that some governments wish the commits tee to refrain from choosing a site, said "How can we draw up the sta- tus without taking into account the place where the bank is to be locas ' Dr, Schacht, who met the corres. pondents of all nations at the request' of the other delegations, gave it as his opinion that the committee would finish its work within a fortnight, He said most of it would be done in in- formal sub-committees, "Red tape will be eliminated, We are business men and do not intend to stand on formality, "The plan, and nothing else, serves as the basis for our labors, Discus. sions will ensue probably on only two or three points, where they may be divergences of opinion."

Thalr posture and oarriage, too, are 'better There ia no comparison heiween the modern boy and girl and their counterpart of twenty years ago." ¢ Medical and educational authori ties are enthusiastic about the new generation, and there in every sign that the 1929 baby will surpass the 250,000 stalwart youngsters now taking the field, Reports from Infant death cen- tres, the National Baby Week Council, educational and child wel. fare officials form one long panes gyria of the 1929 baby, "They are super-bables," said an Infant welfare centre official, "'sturdy, bright and intelligent to a degree which would stagger thelr forefathers, The modern baby ia They are those despised "war [Wore advanced at three months babies' who, because they have not been coddled and overfed, are taller and heavier than their par. ents were at their age. This quarter of a millon of young boys and girls might be termed the second batch of "'war babies." All the gloomy prophecies and pessimistic disparagement love elled against the "war baby" in ve- cent years have been digpersed hy the statement of County Counell health otter "They are the finest reared in the history of the nation, They are an inch taller and four pounds heavier than their parents at the than the pre-war baby at twelve months, Before the war the aver. age baby fed and slept until he wan two years old." "Why is it?" sald a nurse at an infant hospital, "Simply because we leave the modern baby alone and do not coddle it. Give 1t light, airy clothes, proper food, plenty of sun, and then leave it alone," Besides schoolrooms nurseries, kindergartens are better planned nowadays, As a matter of fact, the only adverse oriticlsm against the modern baby is that modern children are more "nervy." a Fat bables have gone out of fashion, The baby experts look upon the fat baby as a coddled and overfed chiid, and bright eyes and agility count more than avolrs dupols In the 1939 Babyland, "Every statistic and report aude mitted during the last few years prove that the talk about race degeneration is so much humbug," was how a schoolmaster summed up the oase, Dibba: I used to be a regular visitor to that doctor's office, PASSENGER'S VIEW 10 BE CONSIDERED Comforts for Traveller is Prime Factor, Say Naval Architects NEW FAST LINERS Italian Expert Claims Larger Displacements Do Not Give Speed Montreal-=In bullding a ship, one must consider primarily the passenger's point of view, rather than that of the owner, bullder, consultant or decorator, A, T.

"It should never be forgotten that the passenger is the raison d'etre and his Mking and consider ation the only thing to be studied, fn the preservation of popularity of shipa™ The speaker pointed out that he thought the useful practice could be improved, suggesting that. the dining saloon should be ns iow down in the hull as possible, and the general lounge, with smoking allowed, should be very large, "There should he a fine ball. room, a grill-room on the upper deck, and a chapel for the use of all classes, More bathrooms should be provided, with careful attention Sliven to interior appearance; of- fices. and bureaus should be cen- tralized, electric lighting should be more of an indirect character in public rooms, and greater attention should be paid to the lighting of cabins and deck spaces."
