Last September he was seriously Ill
! of cardiac asthma, and a VienneSe
surgeon was called to England to
treat him.
Had Keen Mind.
With one of the keenest minds Of
! his generation, and almost prodigious
capacity for hard work, Lord Reading
left his mark upon world affairs.
| He headed the Anglo-French loan
mission to America in World War days.
and borrowed half billion dollars at
a time when the cause Of the allies
hung in the balance. Later, he was
! special Ambassador to the Unlfed
States. A grateful government made
him Yiscount for these labors.
! He was born October 10, 1860, the
son of a well-to-do London merchant.
He was given good education in Eng
land and on the continent, but ran
| away to sea. He spent two years be-
fore the mast, and as a boy standing
in the bow of the vessel, first saw the
low shores Of India. Fifty years
later he saw them for the second time
when he went there as viceroy.
Back in England, young ISaacs
tackled the stock exchange. He
learned lot and went broke under
the "hammering" of other members.
He wanted to study law then, but
his father insisted that he should 60
into business. The son announced
instead that he intended to stand upon
his own feet, and that if he couldn't
do it in England he would 60 to
America.
So firm was his resolve that only
the pleading of his mother as he stood
on the gangplank at Liverpool dis
suaded him. His mother promised
that he would be permitted to study
law.
Once the direction OF his career was
decided definitely it marched steadily
ahead. Soon he was one Of the ma
tion's leading barristers, noted for his
exhaustive preparation of cases and
his suave court room manner.
In 1900 he turned to politics As q
liberal candidate he stood for Parlia-
ment and was defeated. But four years
later he won a seat at Reading, which
he held until 1918. when he was ap-
pointed lord chief justice.
He continued as lord chief justice
of England until 1921, meanwhile be-
coming a baron. The outstanding in
cident Of this tenure was his SEN
fencing to death Of Sir Roger Case
ment, the Irish patriot. for treason.
Is Sent to India.
India profoundly affected by the
war and the STRINGS of nationalistic
feeling, by 1921 was seething with
unrest. 1t was into this atmosphere
that Britain sent the Earl of Reading
Almost his first act in India was to
have a long interview with Mahatma
Gandhi. In many other ways he
sought the path Of concilation and
India, for the time, at least, returned
to the way Of peace. When he came
back to England in 1925 he was
created a marquis.
From his place in the house Of
lords he continued to take light
part in English politics, and when,
during the crisis Of 1881 the brief in
terim national" government was
formed, Lord Reading was made for
eign secretary.
He always maintained a deep, prac-
tical interest in the problems of his
coreligionists, but kept his Judaism
separated from his politics.

SMITH ISSUES DENIAL.

Declares Invitation to Tea Was Only
One Ever Received.
NEW YORK, December 3o.-Alfred
E. Smith today characterized as false"
what he said was q statement by a
White House spokesman that "at
least once a year Mr.. Smith has been
invited to pass either a night or a
week end there, but he never saw ft
to accept even one of these invita-
tionS."
The former Governor was 50 years
old today.
When asked at birthday interview
about mis- refusal to spend night at
the White House when he addressed
The American Liberty League in
Washington, January 26, Smith
handed out the following prepared
statement:
II notice by the public press that
a spokesman for the President is re-
sponsible for the following statement:

Smith has been invited to be an over
night guest Of the White House. At
least once a year Mr.. Smith has been
invited to pass either night or a
week end there, but he never saw At
to accept even one Of these invita-
tons
This statement is false. Since the
inauguration Of President Roosevelt
I received one invitation, through Sec
retary Mcintyre, when it was known
that I was to attend a meeting Of the
trustees of Catholic University at
Washington.
THAT invitation was to tea at
o'clock in the afternoon in the COM

livan, and that invitation accepted.
1t is the only one ever received up to
the one that came last week from
Mrs. Roosevelt, which was promptly
acknowledged.
I'VE might just as well have the rec.
ord straight"
The former Governor refused TO
make any additional discussion of the
invitation incident and neither would
he discuss the nature Of his Liberty
League address.
His general demeanor, however, gave
emphasis to the frequently published
reports that This address would con-
Germ a rigorous assault on the New
Deal.
Smith would not discuss what par
ticipation he would take in the 1885
campaign, either before or after the
.aavanffnn. INT ha did cav that hA
would make "all conclusive state
ments" relative to this later on:

her to re-enter their employ.
But I don't think I'll CO." she
said, "all I want to do now is to be
allowed to live a normal life.
The Lindberghs were the most
kindly and considerate of employers
one could ask, but want to forget
all about the past.
II don't want money.
"I have received offers from film
producers and theatrical representa-
tives. have been asked to make
personal appearances on the stage.
But I have refused them all"

He said the date for the next meet
ing Of the court, when the case will

be later this week or early next week.
The court met for 2l2 hours behind

The court always meets in executive

Several members Of the court said
before the meeting they met specif1-
cally to consider granting a limited

He disclosed the defense chose to
present its argument and reputed new
