But amid all this splendor and glory, the
Mortimer lady dwelt like one of the folks.

my son, my only son, Raoul.
He is % years old and, as far as I have

AVIATION IN CHINA

All Chinamen look more or less alike to Caucasians. The Chinese evidently have returned the compli- mcnt by proving to the world won- dering what had become of Coste and Bellonte that all Caucasians look alike. At least, General Wan FU-I.in in Manchuria noted no diff ference between the looks of the French aviators and the looks Of sundry Russians with whom the Chinese are not on the best of terms. The general showed sense, however in not taking definite action re- garding the strangers until he found cut who they actually were. Then, bet your last nickel on it, he was a very polite Chinaman.

BRISTOL SETTLES DOWN

The hectic time that Bristol has had for several weeks is now over The nonpartisan election system again has functioned to the satis- faction of all citizens. especially the Republicans. And as for the airport well, that is something else again.
 The vote in Bristol indicated con- servatsm. MT. Crumb was elected mayor, it is believed, because he had had experience since the death of former Mayor Wade. There is some thing in regarding experience of value,
 The failure Of the plan to buy the Hotchkiss field for an airport also was the result of q conservative ten dency in the electorate, Although the plan did not permit the expenditure of more than s45,O00, it appears that cautious Bristol taxpayers to the tune or only 33l plurality thought the cost overbalanced the possible benefits. This decision will be receiv- ed as a blow by aviation enthusiasts in the state and the effect elsewhere will be to consider similar plans with increased prudence. Citizens of Bristol through q popular vote have shown that they are not alarmed at the prospect of remaining off the air map for awhile longer.
 It is surprising that the popular vote also turned down the plan for school consolidation. If Bristolites had studied how the system works in New Britain and compared it with the un- consolidated system in Bris- tol and Hartford, they could have come to only one conclusion, and that would have been favorable. It was a period when the spirit against change seemed to be abroad.

Hoover Says Secretary Will
 Remain During Term

Washington Oct. 8 tP}-Andrew ". Mellon will guide the fiscal af- fairs of the United States for the duration of the current admlnlStra- ton.
 This announcement by President Hoover is intended 10 lay the ru- morS that the 74-ycar- old ftnanCicr who has held the treasury portfolio longer than any of his predecessors, is planning to retire.
 It means that, his health and his wishes permitting, he will continue in the cabinet until March 4, 1885, spanning the terms of three admin misunderstanding, Coolidge and Hoover.
 Reports have been current ire qucntly since President Hoover took office that Mellon was about 10 re- tire. All have been denied. but their persistence finally led to the White House announcement. The announcement went beyond the re- ports early in the administration that the treasury secretary would continue in office another year. The implication of those reports that he might then wish to relin- quish the tremendous financial bur dcns of his office probably nourish- ed the rumors of impending resig- nation, which have now been set at rest.

TWO OF ONE MIND

Those who have been regarding Socialists as Reds" have had much to ponder over the last few days, In the White House the Socialist premier of Great Britain--taking for granted the statement of British ob- servers that the Labor party is So cialstic-and his daughter were guests at a magnificent social func- tion. Hundreds if not thousands of socially ambitious people in the na- tion's capital would have been over joyed at the prospect of being in the shoes of demure and youthful Ishbel Macdonald.
 Premier Macdonald, of course, is worthy of all the attention paid him. During his term of office he is more powerful in the British Empire than the King of England himself.
