London periodicals don't hand boll-
quets to American institutions often

current issue of Truth has one for the

Truth has been publishing a series
of articles bitterly attacking the Brit
ish aristocracy under the caption,
Tainted Honesty"
1t compliments the trainers of the
American constitution for seeing that
the comforting of titles of dignity and
honor, even if not hereditary, led to
the creation of a spurious order with
out standard of merit, to the raising
of artificial distinctions between men
and man and to the corruption of pub
lie life by an appeal to the sordid and
unworthy. ~~:
Americans have been better for
their action" the paper continues. ain
the United Kingdom the abuse has
continued to the present day. Under
monarchical constitution it is prob
ably impossible to get rid of the sys-
tenn or to prevent its abuse, but at
least we can rid ourselves of the most
nischievons and indefensible incidents
still attached to it,

tons of legislative rights with the
empty and SO often tainted honors Of
a title and the intolerable anomaly of
the transmission of such a right by
hereditary descent"
