The Royal Family N0 Cost To England

The royal iamily oi Great Britain is one oi the best investments oi the nation. Every year the King and Queen and their children show a new proiit oi $1,632,000.

This, in spite oi the fact that Lab- orites in the House oi Commons have been urging that the hoary institut- ion oi royalty be ioldcd up with ieu- dalism and put in the British Mus- cum.

Each year Parliament is called upon to appropriate $3,168,000 for the King and his many relatives. Regularly, in recent years, the So- cialists have howled as the various items oi this appropriation have come ilp for a vote. In objecting to the grant, the Labor men forget two important facts.

The first is that the Government administers the Crown lands, which are the inherited property of the King, but which are permitted to be used ior the proiit oi the nation. In- cluded in these crown lands are im- portant sections oi London, such as the entire stretch oi- Regent street, one of the major shipping centres in the British capital. From the ad- ministration oi the Crown lands, the Treasury obtains an annualnet pro- iit of $4,500,000.

The second iact ls that the“ Gov- ernment administers for the King

longs to him as the royal successor oi Edward III. The annual proiit irom the Duchy is $300,000.

Among the royal palaces now in use there is not one that does not belong to the King and which was not bought or purchased by his pre- decessors on thethrons. Many oi the palaces now are given over to ‘sightseers. ‘Only Buckingham Pal- ace in London and Windsor Palace in the country are used by ths King and Queen. The first was purchased from the Duke oi Buckingham by King George III. Windsor was built by William the Conqueror and pess- ed down irom king to king, since the eleventh century.

York Cottage, the simple country place, most preferred by the reign- ing Houss was IUIClIB-lfld by Kint Edward Vii and paid for out oi his own iortuns.

Despite the hugs credits granted to him each year, the King\ probably has little leit, after he pays all his expenses and meets thovsrious de- mands on his purse, including the innumerable donations.

The Prince oi Wslesalso is self- supporting. The Duchy oi Cornwall is the hereditary property oi the Prince oi Wales. The net revenue irom the Duchy is 8188.000 I- Yell‘- The gross revenue is $010,000.

The fnu- J " oi the Windsor iortuncs were laid by Queen Victor- ip. who bought Sues Canal stock on the recommendation oi her chiei ad- viser Disraeli. It was a good buy and gave the Queen many millions oi dollars to lea vs to her children.

T0 Oppose "Boton In Rate Case

BOSTON, Mass, Feb. iii-Before the Interstate Commerce, Commis- sion resumed hearing this month oi the complaint by the Boston Port Authority and the City 01 308W" "- garding llghterage and terminal char ges at New York, the New England ‘rrsiiio League, composed oi trui- iio managers oi large concerns throughout New England, decided to oppose the complaint.

The trsiilc managers believed that hundreds oi thousands oi dollars in additional domestic ircight rates might be ‘mposed on New England shippers ii the Commission acceded to the Boston petition which would com pel railroads to make lights-rage and terminal charges in addition to pre-' scribed iroight rates on all traiiic moving to points in the vicinity oi New York Harbor.

As against this increase, it wu said, the advantages to be gained by the port oi Boston as a result "oi ioreing the railroads to impose eddi- tioiini hauling charges would be im- material, at least for a umber oi years. Boston interests contend that tlisss charges, absorbed by the rail- roads serving New York, put this port st a disadvantage, and it is sought to remedy the situation by ioroing the roads to pass the costs oi the extra haulage along to tbs rc- osivsrs and shippers whereas no
