 LONDON, Nov. 25.-American poli- tics is full of noice. British politics is full of quiet.
 The British Empire is in the midst of great election campaign, but to the American eye there is notable pacity of red fire, campaign propa- ganda and election banners.
 The British are as dignified in their politics as they are in everything else. The campaigners make set speeches from public platforms and let it go at that. The floods of interviews and wordy, gossipy controversies that char acterize American politics are missing in British policies. Politicians are not approached by English newspapermen they are as hard to locate while seeking office as they are when they attain office The interview is drowned upon in England, even in politics. It's an occasion for great consideration when an English politician is asked to grant an interview.
 There is, of course, some "baby kissing" among the smaller candidates, 1 but the "big boys" are too dignified to stoop to this There is never an occasion when the big candidate rides in the engine cab while his special train is being whirled on to the next speaking stop.
 Everything is official, and British of ficialdom works slowly For instance when Bonar Law accepted the Pre- miership he went to Buckingham Pal ace at 5:30 in the afternoon to inform the King that he would accept the task of forming ministry. Everyone knew that Bonar Law was accepting, but yet no official confirmation of his ! acceptance was obtainable until the | Court Circular was issuel at 10 p. m. on the same night. No official would murmur a word of confirmation until the official Court Circular was issued. It's a very secret and very official ! business, British politics.

Lloyd George has his fighting dander well aroused and he promises excitement for the press galleries. Lloyd George is not out of the limelight. He may win his way back to Ten Downing 1 Street through the House of Commons, and his efforts in this direction will be most interesting.
 M. Marcel, the man who claims fame for hacing invented the hair wave which bears his name, is counting trou ble. Marcel arose in public and an nounced that "bobbed hair looks silly frivolous and too mannish." Straigt away Marcel began to feel the reac tion and it looks as though he Is in for trouble.
 l Dean Inge-known as the Gloomy | Dean' because of his rather unoptim- istic outlook on life-has lifted the lid and looked into the bottom of the ket- l tie of British aristocracy. The Dean convinced by his observations that the so-called old families do not have any intrinsic superiority. Thisc is blow to the old families and aristocracy has been on the verge of an uproar be- cause the Dean ayers that ''fine man ners can be obtained through uni versity training" which twill often ef face ali traces of plebian origin in a single generation" This is rather hard for British aristocracy to swal low.
 I Listen to this: London police force is too perfect That is the judgment of Judge Atherly Jones. The clock Il work police system of London has be come 50, perfect that it defeats It's owr objects, the judge says. Policing Lon don is done 50 methodically that the crooks and burglars know just where every policeman in the city is at | given time, the judge contends, and
