NEW BRITISH WEEKLY SALUTES U. S. AMITY LONDON, Oct. 26.—A new week- ly magazine has made its appear- ance here, edited by Gilbert Fran- kau, the novelist, which will have a quite “different” American pol- icy. Although the magazine, called “Britannia,” intends to link up the scattered sections of the British fimpire in a eomposite of political, socialogical and literary discus- sion, one of its strong points, ac- cording to Frankau, will be its ‘American policy. “We shall stand for an gent understanding between the English-speaking peoples of the world, without entangling allianc- es. This understanding is mnot intelli- | to be reached by sob-stuff speech- es, champagne dinners, or the ‘hands across the sea’ bunk and eye-wash which is so frequently employed to cloak that difference of thought between England and America, which is all the more dif- ficult of understanding because we speak the same language. “We do speak the same langu- age, though we don't think the same thoughts. And for that very reason I think it is vital that the press of our two countries, in- stead of taking foolish digs at | racial characteristics, should come out and say what they think on all subjects which touch our mu. tual interests.” jof a {'penniless here be trusted|” CAPITALIST DIES INDER ASSUMED NAME ; A IN (,()LD RU.SH DAYS PORT ANGE LEAS Wash., Thomas Rodgers, aged rs, who said he was the father Buffalo, N.
