he knew he could do. He could ride.
He was. in fact. earning his living by
riding. He was riding for ranch called

remarkable self descriptions. Women
have officially described. their own
noses as graceful" beautiful"

Poland is still among the countries
that discourage their citizens from

GREAT BR1TAIN.-on July 26 the
Westminster Parliament adjourned to
October 29.
On July "a Premier Macdonald, ad-
dressing the Commons on the subJect
of the conversations concerning naval
disarmament, made two important an
nouncements: % That he would prob
ably visit Washington in october ana
(2) that the British government had,
"as a beau geste," ordered suspension
of work on two cruisers, one submarine
depot ship and two submarines ana tne
slowing down of other naval construc-
ton.
An answering beau geste was at once
keels of three American cruisers were
to be laid down some time this Fali.
I'VE shall not" says the President,
"lay these keels until there has been
opportunity for full consideration OF
their effect upon the final agreement
for parity between the navies OF the
United States and Great Britain, whlch
we expect to reach"
There are, moreover, indications that
the British government proposes to s,ls-
pend work on the Singapore naval base.
Lord Lloyd has resigned as British
high commissioner for Egypt The an
nouncement in the Commons OF tne
resignation and its acceptance caused

his position"
Thereupon Winston Churchill de-

would seem that the opposition were
not well advised in their mode of at

done, that the government had been

1t does not necessarily follow, OF
course, that the government Is well ad-
vised in its intentions, whatever pre-
cisely they may be, with respect to
Egypt. Lord Lloyd has had very as

department in Egypt during the war.
and, finally, as high commissioner 1or
Egypt.

ENVOY RESENTS!.
ATTACKS ON CUBA
Cuban Ambassador Says
Campaign of Defamation Is
Directed at Republic.
BY the Associated Press.

by the hSSOCldbSu ECSos
Orestes Ferrara, the Cuban Ambassa-
dor, in a statement yesterday declared
"a campaign of defamation" was being
carried on in the United States against
the island republic. A
He said the campaign was directing
unconscionable attacks against the re-
public, government and its treasury
and that the campaign was being pro-
NOTED by three groups of persons.
THE first group" he declared, us
composed of three or four citizens Of
the United States, seeking indemnifica-
ton which the government of Cuba
considers unjust. When one considers
that in Cuba are invested more than
$780, 100000 of capital of citizens Of
the United States it becomes apparent
that these few claims are of infinltesi-
NAL Importance; of as little importance,
IN fact, as the individual who advances
them.
The Cuban government has recently
signed pan-American arbitration con-
vention and is disposed under the terms
of this to arbitrate all questions Of this
plan. ...
"The second is composed of theorists
who are ignorant of the fact. and igno-
rant, above all, of the demands of in

to the country of which they write with
such superb lack of knowledge and to
the country of which they are citizens
The Cuban republic is the most sincere
and constant friend of the Republic OF
the United States of America, and II
will continue to be.
The third group Is composed Ct two
persons only--two who give themselves
mostly the name. of ex-patriot, since
they elect voluntarily to stay N the
United States when they could live in
Cuba, protected by Cuban laws.
THE government of Cuba and Its
representatives in Washington are
gladdened by the latest manifestation
of joint activity by the three groups
aligned against Cuban institutions
knowing that the result will be DEM
onstration once again that the Govern
ment of the United States. always re-
spectful of the right of other nations

ON ARCTIC
ISLE To TRAP
RARE BIRDS

CHICAGO, Oct. 2 0.N.S9.-On a
tiny precipitous island so miles off
the Alaskan coast in Bering Sea,
ice elocked nine months of the year
buffeted by smothering snowstorms
and arctic gales. with temperatures
from 80 to 40 degrees below zero.
Nagozruk, only licensed Eskimo nat
uralist, has taken up his abode in
the interests of science.
NagoZruk is a collector of arctic
and sub arctic specimens. and was
assigned to this bleak spot known
as King Island by Alfred M. Bailey,
director of the Chicago Academy of
obtain a complete collection of birds
and mammals inhabiting the island.
Cliff Dwellers .
King Island is one Of the few
places in North America that has
not been thoroughly investigated by
naturalists, Bailey pointed out. A
dozen hardy Eskimo hunters and
their families, about 40 souls In all,
comprise the population. The island
is about three-quarters of a mile
long and a half mile wide.
1t Is so precipitous that there Is
no place level enough for hut foun'
dations, and the houses of the settle
ment are erected on high piles. For
this reason the King Island Eskl-
mos are known as cliff dwellers.
For some nine months OF the
year the islanders are locked in by
immense fields of ice and cut OF
from all communication with the
outside world Their homes are on
the south wall of the island, and
the time is spent in hunting the
bullhead whale and the walrus and
in carving ivory, in which they are
quite skillful.
Seven years ago four Of the
hunters were carriel off on q huge
sheet of ice which broke away from
the island, and they drifted for IL
days before reaching shore. For
food they shot seals, and water was
obtained by warming snow inside
their parkas.
As the island has never been
visited by biologists, Bailey is con-
fident important collections will be
made by Nagozruk. Despite the
almost paralyzing cold. numerous
species of Siberian and North Amer
lean birds make this island gath
ering place.

Browning told Judge Ralph
Given in Police Court that he
had sent for license tags when he
was in Savanna but being i'm
patient he set out last Septem-
Der l6 before they arrived. The
judge was puzzled how to handle
the case so he told police to keep
the car until Browning can send
for his plates and operating
license. The accused put up $50
collateral on charges of driving
without permit and tags.
