. BARTERING OF
BRITISH TITLES
IS ALLEGATION
LONDON, July 1 (Correspondence
of the Associated Press).—The tender
spot in British political life today is
the dispensation of titles. These are
awarded, of course, by the king, but
on the nomination of the prime min
ister, and the criticism of reformers
is that titles have been given for a
long time and by various prime minis
ters for purely party service, and that
they were practically bought by con
tributions to party funds.
The house of lords has a peculiar
interest in this matter, because the
old noble families are jealous of hav
ing their maste lowe: ’ by the addi
tion of the newly rich, a impurely rich,
to the orders of nobility.
The question was threshed out last
year, and there was a general under
standing that hereafter when honors
were announced the reason for their
bestowal should be published. This
has been done in form, but, it is al
leged, not in substance, because sev
eral much criticized honors in the last
list were described as “for public serv
ices,” which rc/ght mean almost any
thing.
ixit; new inauunai pany, wmcu uas
a few members in the house of com
mons, has taken up the question. The
chairman, General Page Crofr, has
v. i itten to the newspapers proposing
to prove before any judicial commit
tee that since 1910 one member of
parliament has rejected an offer o'5 a
title in return for a cash payment to
party funds, and that the father of a
member of the house of commons was
offered a baronetcy for £25,000.
He charged also that a member of I
parliament who was created a peer
after the beginning of the war sub
scribed shortly afterward a very large
sum of money to a newspaper that
supports the premier.
He mentions also instances in which
he says titles were granted to a poli
tician of so notorious a character as
to be regarded as unfit to be a candi
date for parliament, to another poli
tician regarded as unscrupulous, and to
a third man “previously involved in a
notorious social scandal.”
General Page Croft offered to prove
all his charges.

SECRETARY OF LEAGUE
IS AN AUTHORITY ON
AMERICAN AFFAIRS
LONDON, Aug. 2 (by Associated
Press).—Sir Eric Drummond, the first
secretary general of the League of Na
tions, is a man in the early forties,
of about middle height, with alert,
rather humorous eyes and fine fea
tures. He is exceedingly witty, a
most excellent companion, and can
sparkle at a dinner party as effectively
as he can draft a clause of a treaty.
Sir Eric is said to possess an aston
ishingly complete knowledge of, the
United States, and for some years was
a recognized authority in the foreign
office,to be consulted on American af
fairs. He is said to have a gift for
international politics that has served
his country well in several crises.
It’s the flavor and the grain which
make the bread at the City Bakery
famous.
