A WELL REPRESENTED FAMILY.


 The bare announcement of the election of Mrs Walter Raneiman by the St. Ives eonstitu eney to the British Parliament does not connote anything of a sensational character. There are nine women in the English Commons. But when it s considered that her husband and her father-in-law. Sir Walter, are also members of Parliament it suggests that the Runciman family is well represented in the law-making body of Britain. Sir Walter Rnneiman eighty years of age but still hale and hearty. is bead of the great Newcastle shipping firm of Runciman and Com pany and has served long in the House of Com mons. Son Walter. also a member of the shipping company and of the Commons, Is regarded as Lloyd Georges right-hand He almost all ways, in sessions sits at the side of the famous Liberal leader. All of the Runcmans Lib- erals Mrs. Walter, in her successful campaign in the St Ives district. declared that she would always support Lloyd George as long as he re- mained Liberal. The qualification was accepted as meaning that she might not follow him into too close an alliance with the Labor Party.
