A Closeup of Great Britain;s New
Ambassador to Washington
By RODNEY
NEA Service Writer

WASHINGTON, May =.-If Sir
Ronald Lindsay had been born In
the United States instead Of in
Scotland. he would have to dress up
as Uncle Sam and carry the flag in
Fourth Of July parades-
He's the new British ambassador
and he Is the largest diplomat in
town.
Six feet and four inches high, Sir
Ronald is so tall and broad Shout
dered that when he ordered a new
automobile the other day he had to
have the standard model altered in
order to contain him comfortably.
Great height. Great strength
and physique. Tired but sophiSticat-
ed brown eyes. Iron gray hair.
Droopy mustache which doubtless
had a rakish aspect before he al
lowed IL to conform with his age,
now So. Virile but restrained speech
Of the pleasant quality which we
are accustomed to associate with the
best type of middle-aged British
gentlemen. And a cosmopolitan en-
thusiasm which makes him one Of
Washington's real baseball fans.
That's a physical description Of
Sir Ronald and IL helps explain why
the most striking impression one
gets Of him is that Of a man Of i'm
pertubability and quiet power,
tinged with as ense Of humor quite
adequate for almost any occasion.
No Liquor Decision Yet
Concerning future replenishments
Sir Ronald answers questions in the
most diplomatic way imaginable. He
says he hasn't had time to settle
down and hence no time to con-
slider seriously such incidental mat
tiers. His real attitude. IL may be
said, Is that the question OF the en-
bassy liquor supply is entirely his
own private affair.
The ambassador has had plenty
Of opportunity to learn to appreciate
the American point Of view. He was
counselor OF the embassy here IN
1919 and 1920 and even before that,

school, and he wiIlb o m expert On
body work. A Duco paint plant win
be Installed, and more equipment OF
every description win be added"
Mr.. Stevenson predicted that his
company would sell more cars IN
1880 than In 1929.

City of Opportunity

Years ago, before civil strife and war,
Point Isabel was the most important port
south Of New Orleans. Wa left it in ruins,
but demand and cooperation are rebuilding
a far more important city than was ever
dreamed Of before.
This is M idle statement; it IL but the
truth. Nothing can stop Point Isabel. II TO-
morrow every man, woman and child
should leave and the city should burn TO
the ground, It would rise again. No truer
test Of its greatness can be found thar the
fact that even though it was laid ir ruins,
it has risen again, until today it is being
watched by the entire nation.

Fine felts for sports hats and

PORT

1t is not hard to visualize just what is
happening at Point Isabel. 1t is opening
to the world markets all the Valley has to
offer. Vast regions in Northern Mexico
and Eastern Texas will route produce, oil,
raw minerals or what ever they have,
through this Port.
One need only to close ones eyes for a
moment to picture great wharves piled
high with goods and grapefruit, bound to
and coming from all corners Of the globe.
1t is your Port. See a great commercial
city and industrial center being developed.
The causeway is just another step.

SAYS WEALTH NOT
WELL DISTRIBUTED

Addressing the Young Peoples So
ciety Sunday evening Harold johnson,
an Askov young man, dwelt at some
length on American business, declar-
ing that business is primarily Tor
profit. Profit is the high card and
service the lower card, he said. Hen
nv Ford changed his model when
forced to it by competition. Mass pro-
duction such as is being put out today
requires steady sales, and therefore
the high pressured salesman and
newspaper advertising is used. One
billion dollars was spent in adver-
Using in America last year which was
both good and bad, said the speaker.
Going on the speaker said that
America maintains a high standard
of living and today America is the
wealthiest nation in the world, how
ever the wealth is not we'll distributed
because 10 per cent of the people own
80 per cent of the wealth, and last
year 22S people each had an income
of a million dollars or more. The
prifits of the several large corpora
tions for the first six months in 1880
| was enumerated.
The contrast between such men as
Hamilton and Jefferson was pictured.
Hamilton was for strong central rule
and did not love the common folks
as did jefferson whose motto was that
man is created equal and his pro-
| gram was agrarian. Quoting Glenn
f., Frank of the University of Wisconsin,
the speaker said: What we need to-
day is creative leadership" and there
is need for more personal value and
| less of the mass productive type
where man becomes almost another
machine. There is also need for real
leisure of the right type, that kind OF
leisure where a man enjoys living
and is not constantly chasing, but sits
calmly down to read and think ant
enjoy. the blessings of nature. Dwell
ing briefly on the unemployment stu
alton the speaker said things looked
gloomy for next winter.
The speaker was accorded close at
tention throughout his discourse.
