EW YORK, May 9. ry Rev. W. R. Inge, dean of St. Paul's Cathedral in London, ending a three-week's lec- ture trip in the United States, sailed for home in second-class quarters on ‘the Samria. Dean Inge’s only grievance while in the United States, he told interviewers, concerned the constant use of “gloomy dean” as a sobriquet applied to him. He expressed satisfaction with his visit, saying that he had been over- whelmed by the generosity and solici- tude of his hosts. Discussing fundamentalism, he re- marked that it had been his experience to find that fundamental! s were of- ten very silly people. for the greater part wi ni v people,” he said, “and they are highly | intelligent. Naturally, they would de- spise anything extreme on the part of | the fundamentalists.” The Zionist movement, he thought, | might with wisdom transfer its a tivities to New York, rather than to “Palestine, because of the large Jewish | population here. An_ expressed o ment of prohibition, he said that he | d survived it for three weeks, but that he would be glad to return to his cellar. e ‘KASHMIR GIVES WELCOME Hospitality Offered to Roosevelt: Party on Expedition.
