Such action would be of long

Philip Mickman, 18-year-old
English school boy, swan the
channel 10 days ago in % hours
and 48 minutes, the slowest time
ever from the French side.
Mrs. Du Moulin was already
celebrating the feat before her
husband arrived. She and Jules
des vanian, Belgian consul at
Calais, drank champagne off a
pool table while awaiting his re-
turn.
The consul said he would ask
the Belgian government to give
Du Moulin the Sports Medal. This
would rank Du Moulin with the
immortals of the Belgian sporting
world.
Du Moulin owns three factories
which make coal mining machin-
cry. The Du Moulins have son.
II months old. He was asleep
when his father returned to Calais
tonight.
The swimmer returned to
France shortly before midnight,
about 26 hours after he had en-
tered the water for the swim.
He's a nervous man and had not
slept for about "a hours before
starting his swim. Thus when he
got back to Calais he had been
without sleep for about 48 hours.
He was escorted to the hotel by
the Belgian consul. A champagne
party in Du Moulin's honor was
already under way.
$50 Welcome Him.
Du Moulin crawled ashore near
Shakespeare Cliff at the end Of
his channel swim. Only $50 per-
sons were gathered at the remote
spot. They cheered Justify.
Du Moulin's manager. Frank
Tyssen, stepped ashore with him
and assisted in removing thick
coat of grease from his neck and
shoulders. Then he climbed into
a rowboat and went out to the
fishing smack waiting 200 yards
offshore for the return trip to
France.
Du Moulin took five hours to
swim the last four miles against
q strong tide and rough waters in
q wind blowing Is miles an hour.
But he finished in a rush when
the wind died down and the tide
changed.
A correspondent who visited him
when he was four miles out found
him obviously tired. He moved
his legs very little, but kept going
with a powerful breaststroke. He
swan low in the water with only
his helmeted and goggled head
showing.
Once he treaded water and as
he reached up for beer bottle
filled with a dark liquid, he waved
for a photographer.
All the II persons aboard the
accompanying smack, including
two women, said they had swan
with him at one time or another to
keep him company, but they were
all worn out.
Crippled During War.
The first Belgian to complete
the attempt, Du Moulin said he
wanted to do it for the honor OF
his country. A veteran of the
Allied liberation Of Belgium, his
war-scarred left leg is half an
inch shorter than the right one.
For the entire grind he used the
breaststroke which most Channel
swimmers spurn in favor of the
speedier crawI or trudgeon.

and to negotiate for treaty
changeS-Such as the United
States most favored nation"
trade agreements.
In effect. the proposed economic
union would extend Britain's
preferential trading system-by
which trade with her empire and
colonies receive favored treatment
in tarff rates-to the French,
Dutch and Belgian empires and
eventually to the other European
members of the council-Ireland,
Italy. Sweden, Norway, Denmark,
Luxembourg, Greece and Turkey.
Such a union would run counter
to the most favored nation"
treaties these nations now have
with the United States. Washing
tons permission would be neces-
sary before one member could give
its neighbors better trading rights
than Americans now enjoy.
Free Money Supported.
Britain's Socialists voted in IA
vor of a free money market-let-
ting European currencies find their
own level with relation to one an
other - when assured this would
not involve removing control of
European currencies in their rela-
ton to the dollar.
At the same time British Con-
servatives helped carry proposal
that a system of guaranteed Eu-
ropean markets" be set up. Hugh
Dalton, British cabinet member,
explained this meant that lone
country will offer to purchase
from another, for a considerable
stated period of time, definite
amount Of that country's prod
uctS."
This was a victory for British
Labor's planned economy ideas.
If carried out it would be a con-
tinuation of purchasing agree
ments between European govern
ments-a form of bilateral trading
rather than general multilateral
trading favored by the United
States.
The assembly called attention
of "the peoples Of Europe to the
gravity of the peril in which they
are living and the advantages Of
uniting their resources in a COM
mon effort to regain solvency."
Other Points in Program.
The program. prepared by the
young British Conservative, David
Eccles, and presented by the AS
sembly's Economic Committee,
headed by former Premier Paul
Reynaud Of France, also urged
the Ministerial Committee to:
Create permanent machinery
for consultation on credit policies.
Study ways of encouraging
Americans to invest in Europe.
Investigate European produc-
tion with . view to reduction of
imports from non-European cotn-
tries.
Organize inter-European con-
ferences of employers, workers
and consumers on increasing in
dustrial and agricultural produc-
ton.
Sponsor European convention
on control Of cartels.
In addition a subcommittee will
take up the ! questions of issuing
q European postage stamp and
developing the touring industry.

with the latter thought that
made me wish that more of
my friends and relatives could
see it. This one reason for re-
turning so soon was that my
people could have the spiritual
blessing that it was my priv
lege to have when I saw your
splendid production. May our
Heavenly Father continue to
bless your work and the per-
formances as they give of their
talents that others might be up
lifted.
