Economy Deprives Editors
of Safe Guide In Spelling
(By Associated Press)
WASHINGTON, D. C„ Jan. 21.—
The economy policy of the Coolidge
regime has had its effect ever, in the
drawing rooms of fashionable Wash
ington society.
One of the latest items of expense
to be clipped from the annual budget
is the small, but much-sought-after
monthly publication called the Diplo
matic List, wherein the names and
official titles of all members of em
bassy and legation staffs heretofore
have been made available by the
State Department.
Department officials have decided
that new editions of this diplomatic
book will be printed hereafter only
when there has been an accumulation
of necessary revisions. Consequently
no hostess now can be certain, with
out special inquiry, of the precise
rank of diplomatic officials, or of the
correct spelling of some of the jaw
breaking names of those sent here to
represent distant countries.
The change has been a particular
cause of disturbance to social secre
taries and society editors, accustom
ed for years to the possession of a
ready-reference tabulation of all of
Washington’s diplomats.
Berlin Schools Adopt
Courses In Athletics
(By Associated Press)
BERLIN, Jan. 21.—The schools of
Berlin are becoming increasingly in
terested in athletics and calesthen
(tics The movement for making gym
nastic training obligatory is gaining
headway. Thus it is contemplated,
as soon as the facilities can be pro
vided, to compel all school children
to learn to sWim.
During the past summer over 2,000
school children were given instruc
tion in swimming and within the next
few months the privilege is to be ex
tended to 10,000 young people by set
ting aside the natatoria in the vari
ous parts of the city for their speci
fic use.
Another form of sport that is to be
given encouragment this winter is
bob-sleighing and skiing. Pushball
and medicine ball, comparatively lit
tle known in Germany before the war
has also come into vogue in the
public schools.
Australia Gives Reciprocal
Tariff Mingled Reception
BELBOURNE, Australia, Jan. 21.—
Although the reciprocal tariff with
Canada was received first with en
thusiasm and was ratified by the
federal parliament by a vote of 35 to
7, the feeling in business circles now
is less buoyant.
The Tariff Board reported as fol
lows: “The proposals are admittedly
of greater immediate benefit to Can
ada than to Australia. Raisins and
currants are the only lines in which
we can expect to do extensive busi
ness. The one great concession, one
which Canada is very anxious to
have, is the open market in Austra
lia for newsprint.”
The labor party opposition leader
ir. parliament termed the trade trealv
“an absurdity and a delusion.” He
looked on Canada as a colony of the
United States, saying it had adopted
a similar policy, selling anywhere,
bujing nowhere.

NEW JAPANESE ENVOY TO UNITED STATES
Esuneo Matsudairi, new Japanese ambasasador to the United States, with
Madam Matsudiari and their children. A diplomatic precedent of years was
broken Thursday, when the announcement of the appointment was immedi
ately followed by a statement by the Secretary of State, warmly complimen
tary to the new envoy. It is not customary for the Secretary to make any
statement regarding a new ambassador until he has arrived here and presented
his credentials; but an exception was made to counteract the effect of the
speech made this week by Representative Fred Britten of Illonois, and the
resolution which he introduced into the House calling for a conference of “the
white people’s bordering on the Pacific.”
