The Earl of ;\ll‘llC, Lord Chamberlain to the Queen, is the son ol the Dowager Countess of A-irlic who has bccn for lllally years Lady-in‘ \\"aiting tu_ Queen .\lill‘_\'. llis father was killed in action at Dianlolltl llill, Pretoria, in 1900. Lord Airlic zlccoinpzuticd the King and Queen on their state visit to Paris last summer. Capt. l\llCllZ\L'l .\tlt‘llll€, assistant private secre- tary to the liingq. is th: grandson of that Lord Stanlftlrdhaln who llt‘i(l appointments at court from 1880, when he was zlppoillted Groonl-in- “killing to Qjttct-it Victoria, tlntil his death in 1931 u-hcn he “as private sl-cretary to King George V. Captain .\llCilllL’ was appointed pri- vate secretary to the King in 1937. _L0rd Eldon, who is a Roman Catholic, has been I.ord-in-\\'aiting to the King since March, I937. He is nlarrictl to a dzlltghter of the late Lord Lnvat and succccetletl to his present title on the dcatlrof his grandfather in 1926. Alan F. Lasccllcs, acting private secretary t0 the King, has an intimate knowledge of Can- ada for he was private secretary to the Earl of Bessborottgh during the latter's Governor- Generalship from 1931 to 1937. and visited Prince Edward Island in that capacity. Mr. Lascelles also served as assistant private secre- tary to the Duke of Windsor, then Prince of \'Vales, from 1920 to 1920, and accompanied the Prince 0n his visit to Canada. He is a cousin of the Earl of l-larcwood, husband of the Prin- cess Royal. He was assistant private secretary to George V at the end of his reign and has con- tinued in that post throughout the present reign. Surgeon-Capt. H. E. Y. White, medical oi- ficer to the King, has served on the Royal Yacht Victoria and Albert since 1927 and ac companied the Prince of \Vales on his Empire tours aboard H. .\I. S. Repulse and Re- nown. He also scrvcd as medical officer on the Repulse when the King and Queen, then the Duke and Duchess of York, went to Australia and New Zealand in 1927. The two equerries in attendance on His Maj- esty are LieuL-Col. Piers Legh, who was equerry to the Duke of Windsor while he was Prince of \Vales for 17 years, and Commander E. M. C. Abel Smith, R.N., who is the most recently appointed nlrnlbcr of the King's house- hold He was appointed Equcrry to the King at the beginning of this year. Less glamorous in title but nevertheless a member of the Royal party who carries a heavy load of responsibility, is George F. Steward, chief press liaison officer. Mr. Stewards experi- ence as press officer at No. 1o l)o\vuing Street is standing him in good stead. Their Majesties‘ entourage consists of those who have been closely associated with them in terms of friendship as well as loyalty, and the word household as appllrtl to the staff in Buck- ingham Palace is no idle term. As Lord Cham- berlain to the Queen Consort, the Earl of Airlic is the senior officer in hcr household and is responsible for many of the arrangements for state ceremonies and other important functions. To a. Scottish {Queen it nlust be heart-warming to have her Lord Chamberlain bear a title so old and protld in Scottish history. The Lords-in- \\"aiting to the King live in residence for two or three weeks at a tiulc during their period in waiting and are in daily attendance on His Maj- esty. The Iiqucrrics on the other hand have no regular duties ‘arid in London aQe only in oc- casional attendance on the King. It is on the private secretaries that much of the routine duty of the present day falls lteavily and as a re- sult of the enormous correspondence and daily demands upon their time the bond between Their hlajcstits and their secretaries is a close one. A U. S. TRIBUTE The protection which the British Navy has lccordcd not only to Canada but to the United States during the past cclltttry was the subject of a fine tribute by a prominent United States ' banker, Mr. 'l‘honuls W. Lamont. The occasion was a (liutler function in New York. “First," said 1\lr_ Lzuuont, "I would remind you of the fact that froln 1814, we will say, un- til 1914, there was an cra of unbroken peace in ithe world. so far as any world conflict was con- cerned. There was what ltas been called a Pax ‘Britannica. Great Britain, the British empire, maintained the peace. lt did so for the benefit pf the empire and incidentally for the good of .,the whole world, including, as it turned out '_America.

J. Riddifofd, Canadian Trade Commissioner at Panama City, who states that “due to lack of direct ‘and economical shipping facilities from Lunenburg to Panama, the bulk of the codfish shipped from that port is credited to the United States, while the qu- antities credited to Canada. are believed to be COnsigned frdm Halifax, Canada, therefore, con- tinues to enjoy the bulk of this trade, although the United Kingdom and Norway have increas- ed their share almost in direct proportion of the total increase." Mr- Ridditord reports that the increase in im- ports of codfish into Panama during recent years may be attributed to improved business conditions, and to the fact that in 1934 the duty on codfish was reduced from to cents to 5 cents per gross kilogram. Statistics show that Canada supplied 19,563 kilos of codfish to Panama during January to August last as compared with 11,113 kilos in the corresponding period of I937. (One kilo equals 2.2 pounds.) These do not include imports of codfish into the Canal Zone, which amounted to 585,000 pounds, practically all from Canada.

In response to President Roosevelt's plea. Hitler offered non-aggression pacts to eight neighboring states. That only four of these have accepted is indication that the part offered is not the kind intended by Mr. Roosevelt. Hitler framed his agreements to make any states accept- ing them forfeit their neutrality and become part of the German bloc. a i r i People who think Hitler invented the Swastika should realize that it had been adopt- ed by Lord Baden Powell as an insignia for the Boy Scouts long before the Fuehrer was heard and yellow representing infinite prosperity to the Chinese are to be seen on ma nlficient ritual costumes worn many hundredsp years ago by great Manchu Empprozs. ‘ ' On their Majestic!’ visit to Charlottetown on June 14. the presentation of a boquet to the Queen, on behalf of the school children of the Province, will be made in accordance-with the original plan by Miss Virginia Campbell, daughter of Premier and Mrs. Thane A.
