According to Correspondent, the Aver

Ten years ago the ordinary Eng
lishman would walk the whole length
of the platform in order to have a
compartment to himself If you hap
pened in the same compartment he
would shrink into a corner as if he
feared you we're trying to get his

rapid, convenient suburban services
have broken down the Englshman S

formal address delivered by leading
member of the Anglo-American com
munity at one of London's most pop

The "humanizing' of the English
man was attributed largely to the res
taurant habit, the increasing tendency
to live in fats, the coming of the de-
