McFadden said it was “a well known fact in Federal Reserve Board circles that Mr. Meyer was after & job on the | board.” He then emphasized that Edmund Platt, vice governor, resigned to make way for Meyer. Although Roy Young \resigned as governor last Summer, Mc- Fadden said, Meyer could not be ap- pointed because he and Platt were both from the New York district. “I don't believe Mr. Platt d-liberately resigned from the Fedegal Reserve Board,” ssid McFadaden. k the committee to inquire into that.

Premicr Laval's life is a repetition of the log cabin to the White House legend. The new head of the French govern- ment was born into an humble family in Chateldon, Department of Puyde- dome, in the center of France. of his early life, he says, was spent in chasing dogs away from his father's meat shop. The Laval f#mily by tradition had been butchers, and young Pierre was expected to follow the same trade, but {he had an early taste for white cravats | instead of white aprons and so defied tradition and plugged out an education. His brilliancy in common school brought him a scholarship which en- abled him to pursue his studies at St. Etienne and later in Lyons and Paris. He won a law degree as well as a de- gree in natural history and at the fin- ish of his school life began practice as an attorney for the trade unions.

A motion of censure of the govern- ment offered by the orthodox Liberal following criticizes the government on its unemployment record. ‘The motion of censure forestalls a conservative motion which has been in the offing for weeks. It is generally be- lieved that David Lloyd George, the Liberal leader, has neither wish nor hope for his motion to pass the Com- ons, but since only one measure of ensure can be considered at a time is using it with an eye to insuring contin- ued life of the Labor government.
