LORD BALF0UR
Great Britain Celebrates S0th
Birthday of It's Noted
Statesman

London. July 25.-(AP)-Great
Britain celebrated today the SOth
birthday of one of her most distin-
guished statesmen, the Earl Of Bal
four.
Lord Balfour's public service goes
back 81 years, for he entered the
house of commons in 1874 and he
is one of the few great survivors OF
the Victorian era.
Earl Balfour is a member of the
cabinet today, being lord president
of council.
The luncheon yesterday was part
ly in honor of the aged statesman's
birthday and the Prince of Wales
who is on terms of intimate friend
ship with Earl Balfour, paid him
graceful compliments to which Lord
Balfour responded with a lively
speech.
AS tribute in appreciation Of his
services to the state and as evidence
of their personal esteem, his friends
in the house of lords and commons
are presenting Earl Balfour with ar
expensive motor car as birthday
gift.
After proposing Earl Balfour's
health, the Prince of Wales said:
Lord Balfour was cabinet min
lister eight years before I was born
For we'll over half a century he has
maintained his golf handicap at a
lower level than mine is likely ia
touch for sometime to come. These
two considerations alone would make
it impertinent for me to try and give
you an estimate of his career"
