London, Feb. @5 Pl~Queen Vic toria's letters and dairies covering tho period from 1862 to 1878, just published, reveal that if the queens wishes had prevailed King Frederick
 would not reign in England. There would have been no King Edward VII or King George Y.
 Queen Victoria wanted Edward 10 be known as King Albert Edward and when the present king was born she wrote 10 her father: "I cannot admire the names you propose 10 give the baby l had hoped for some time old name -. George only came over with the Hanoycrian family"
 She hoped that King George would be called by his second name, Fred rrick, and if this wish had boon fol. lowed the present king would he known as Frederick I,
 The two volumes of the queens correspondence run 10 1900 pages, and are crowded with interesting political and personal references and reflections, in which such great iig- urcs as Gladstone Disracli. the then Prince of Wales, later Edward VII, and the now dethroned kaiser Of Germany figured prominently The volumes open just at the time when she had been perceived of her con sort.

MORRIS AND REED
 AND THREE BANKS
Mellon Organization Center Of
 Amusing Tale
ny CHARLES P. STEWART

i'' ' litNAklAista IT. E. w A k Washington, ifeb, 2l t4p -- N3rris Reed and tho Three Mellon Banks,
 Good ttilo for Il story, what? Well, there is one. senator Reed Of Pennsylyunia caught Senator Norris ot Nebraska in q bad mistake recently. in the course ot some of Norris "radlcal talk" and called him down proper.
 Subsequently he wished he hadn't caught him.
 To begin with:
 There are three Mellon banks in Pittsburgh. The Mellon National the Union Savings and the Union Trust Company,
 Some time ago they had occa- sion 10 file income tax returns. h. stead of doing it separately--a re- turn for each institution--they did II in one chunk. Whats known as q consolidated return"
 
 Senator Norris criticized this.
 He didn't say it was crooked, but he did say it saved the three outfits $3l,47",@7. His point was that it was big savlng--Worth investigation, But there's no way of Investigating II. because of so much secrecy about inc internal revenue bureau.
 Norris was arguing for publicity.
 Lp rose Senator Reed and made minccmeat of him.
 Reeds a director in all three Of the Mellon banks. He's firstclass lawyer also.
 He pointed out that the law call ed for a Consolidated return" from financial triplets hooked up like tha, trio They did it the way they had to, legally.
 He proved his case up 10 the hilt Norris looked rather foolish.
 But Reed committed the tactical error of saying Norris got his dope from D. F, Hickey. "a discharged treasury employe."
 Hickey wasn't discharged He re- signed.
 Rescnting Reeds reference to | him, he furnished some additional ! which Reed. busy here | in Washington, didn't know about or want either.
 According to Hickey, the three hanks did make q Consolidated re- 1 turn" as Reed so clearly demon- i strated the law demanded.
 Later. however, their counsel, the , firm of Reed, Shaw, Smith and Me- 1 Cray-of which Senator Reeds a member-discoytred that they'd ! have saved S91.472.37 If they'd made their returns separately.
 Consequently they raised heck al l the internal revenue bureau until it { them to do if that way, l and returned their $91.472.57.
 
 II goes without saying that Sena- i tor Reed wasn't aware of all this. {
 You bet he wasn't.

Fair Play for Mellon
 Asked by Senator Reed

Washington, Feb 25 tPl---An np- peal for flair play" for Secretary Mellon in the proposed Aluminium investigation was made in the zen ate today by Senator Reed, republi- can, Pennsylvania.
 The fight, Senator Reed said. has been declared by Senator Walsh. democrat. Montana, who originally asked the investigation to be one against Secretary Mellon on the ground that he owns the controlling interest in the Aluminium Company of America.
 "The fact is." he added, that Secretary Mellon owns but 16ia per cent of the voting stock of the com pany."

PRETTY LEGS ARE

No Worse on Morals
Then O. K.
BIZ Times Special

81 I1WSS NDcctdt
CHICAGO, Dec. 17.--If short skirts
have had no worse effect on morals
than they have had on legs, they are
o. K, according to Edna Wallace
Hopper, the eternal fapper."
"All the critical old ladies of the
rocking chair brigade continue to
sigh about what short skirts have
done to morals" says Miss Hopper,
but they never stop to think Just
what they have done to legs. They
don't seem to realize, nor do they
care, how many more really good
legs are floating around now than
there used to be.
Short skirts are leaving a Won
derful mark on the legs of this gen.
Grafton, and more than that, on the
legs Of the next generation. No
fond mother who casts her eyes over
her own bowlegs or knock-knees will
allow her children to develop legs
nowadays that are not straight and
true.
"All girls and women need a trim
ankle and leg just as much they
need white teeth or lustrous hair.
There is systematic campaign to-
day against pipestems and thick an
kles alike. The modern girl who
would be beautifuP REALIZES that she
can't merely stick a little powder
on her nose and have her hair mar
celed, and get by with it.
THE girl Of today deliberately sets
out to get good looking legs. She
knows that with the proper exercise
she can develop not only good legs
but slim and well-developed figure
as well, which will keep her looking
years younger.

must nave been in the old days when

NEW YORK WORLD EDITORIAL

New York-The New York World
makes this editorial explanation of
the difference between the world court
at Geneva and the arbitration court
at The Hague:
"The world court was not intended
to supplant The Hague court, but to
occupy new and much larger field.
The difference between the two is in
dicated by their names. The world
court is the Permanent Court of In
ternational Justice; The Hague Court
is the Permanent Court of Arbitra-
ton. Nations appear as litigants in
the former by a regular and automatic
procedure, while for the most part
they appeal to the latter only by spe-
cial arrangement.
f'In arbitration there is frequently
a certain amount of compromise and
negotiations; in adjudication every
thing will be decided by the principle
of treaties or international law. The
world court has eleven judges who
meet each June and sit at frequent
intervals during the year; The Hague
court has only panel of possible
judges who never meet at one time
and place, but from arbitrators are
selected when nations need them"
