MRS. WEBSTEIVS ADDRESS

The women of the Marltimes should take a united stand for a more rational type of education. Mrs, Clarence Webster declared in beginning her interesting address on education. Conditions had changed completely during the pest 25 ears snd the system which wor ed admirably in the pro-war period was not producing the qualities that. are needed in the world today.

“Our children. if they are tocope successfully with the complex prob- lems than are beinfl thrust upon them. must be better equipped to face life than we were." the speak- er maintained. "They should be able to think clearly. to not dis- passlonatelv and. above all. they should recognize the duties as wel as the privileges of citizenship.

“I do not decry book-learning; far from it, but in this crucial per- iod of our history. the formation of character and the encourage- ment of individual resourcefulness are more important than hliher mathematics or dead lanzuages.

We have been reminded often enough during the Dust few years- that the word “educate" means to "draw out"—yet we persist in 6111111711115 immature minds with unrelated facts. which are soon forgotten because they are outside

"Their Majesties, deeply ap- nrecinting the motives underlying M. Lebrun's suggestion. have gladly accepted it.

Memorial Unveiling

"The unveiling of the Austral- ian National War Memorial at Vlllors-Bretorlneux will therefore take place ZPriday, July 22." (The unveiling ceremony had been scheduled for Friday, July 1).

The funeral of the Countess, who died in her London home early this morning, was set for Monday at Glamis Castle, family seat in Scotland.

On their visit to France, cementing Anglo-French bonds, the King and Queen will remain in the vicinity of Paris until the morning of JuIy 22, when they will leave to dedicate the Aust- ralian monument.

LONDON. June 33-<C‘P)— Prime MinLster Chamberlain told the House of Contrnons during an on debate tonight that Great Britain's agent. to Insurgent Spain had been instructed to return home for consultations rm repeat- ed Insufilent attacks on‘ British shipping. There was no hmi, how- ever. that Dritain was breaking off her unofficial relations with In- surgent General Franco.

The Prime Nllinistor faced de- mands of Labor, Liberal and even some Conservative members that strong measures be taken to halt the bombinos.

After the debate the House turn- ed down 275 votes to 141 a Lflbvl‘ motion of adjournment which would have placed the House on record as opposed to the Govern- ments course.

Demand Retaliation

When Clement Attlee. Labor Loader. and David Lloyd George. Liberal. demanded attacks on nir- dromes on the Balearic islands in the eastern Mediterranean as re- taliation. the Prime Minister turn- ed to Mr. Lloyd George and said,

coolly.

"In his 70th year the Right Hon- orable member ls ready to plunge this country into war. I am not going to take that risk."

Mr. Chamberlain pleaded for pa- tierwc.

"When we are touching on sub- jects which may bring us near that dangerous borderline which divides

ace and war," he said. “we ought t? think of the possible consequen- ces of nnv action we may take on the lives and fortunes of our fel- low coilnirvmvn."

I-fe said Sir Robert Hodgson. agent at Burgcs. Spain. was in- structed to get. an er. ianation from the Insurgents and ring the ex- planation to London "in order that the Government may consider, 1n consultation with him, the situation which will result from the terms of that answer."

Just before Mr. Chamberlain made the statement, three men shaking their flsts and shouting: "Chamberlain encourages Franco to murder British seamen," were eeoted from the mrsngers‘ Gallery. An uproar followed on the floor of the House with Conservative mem-

bers accusing the opposition of placing agitators in the chamber.

The defenders said they recap- tured Chungnow, on the Lunghai 25 miles east of Chengchow. and Hushih, 30 miles south of Chung-

Forelgn observers gave consider- able credence to the Chinese claims. holding movement of the mechanized Japanese machine over mud-covered Honan Province virtually was impossible.
