KIWANIS HEAR ANNUALREPORTS AT CONVENTION: Convention Discusses Agri- culture and Vocational Guidance Miami, Florida, May 7.~--Annual reports of the international com- mittee on agriculture and vocation- al guidance were heard today at the closing sessions of the 15th annual convention of Kiwanis In- ternational held here this week. To better the relationship be- tween the town and country groups, Canadian Kiwanis clubs were urged to sponsor more stock and grain contests, exhibitions, and fairs, and boys' and girls 4-H club work. "Alfred McKinnon, of Barrie, agricultural chairman of the Ontario-Quebec-Maritime Ki- wanis district, and Paul Schwager, of Saskatoon, heading a similar committee for the Western Can- ada district, will promote this ser- vice work among the 69 clubs in Canada. In vocational work co- operation was asked of every Ki- wanian with those young men and women who might be interested in his business or profession. Two Kiwanis district conven- tions will be held in Canada this year, it was announced today. The Ontario-Quebec-Maritime conven- tion will be held in Windsor in September. The Western Canada district will convene in Edmon- ton in August.

King Carol, who was said to have requested the interview, travelled from Orsova yesterday morning with Premier Jorga, of Rumania. King Alexander came down the river in the royal yacht, attended by two monitors, After exchanging greetings the two monarchs entered the launch and sped away. After they returned King Alex- ander entertained Carol aboard his yacht. There was widespread speculation last night in the ecapi- tal here over the purpose of the conference. It is believed here the confer- ence between the two kings touched upon subjects of great im- portance in the two countries and that the meeting, preceding as it did the conference of the Little Entente, was not a mere coinecid- ence, The premiers of both sovereigns, Jorga of Rumania and Zivkovitch, of Yugoslavia, accompanied the kings and held a conference of their own aboard a steamer in midstream, 25 'AMERICAS' BESIDES U.S.A. Populafion of Other Nations * on Continent Equal to That of United States Toronto, May 7.--There are 28 "American" nations on the Ameri- can continent, The Toronto Mail and Empire points out, with a pop- ulation of 105.982,000 in 25 of them as compared with 106,000,000 in the one known as the United States of America. The payer quotes a letter from a correspondent sug- gesting citizens of the United States and Chat -- King Alex- -have the right to a monopoly of the name "Americans" because they consitute 90 per cent, of the popu- lation of this continent. "A great many other correspon- dents take issue with. him," Amer- ica, central America, South America and the West.Indies all have an equal right to this distinctive title to separate them from the people 'who live in the eastern hemisphere. In these divisions of the new world there are no fewer than 25 coun- tries, the inhabitants of which are all Americans. Nothing is clearer than the fact that the people of the great friendly neighboring nation should never have set up any ex- is no need to bring any charge of Toronto, Washington,. There | arrogance in this connection. It is rather, a matter of carélessness, or, rather, a want of any other enphon- jous word to designate the citizens of the Republic. We do. not suppose that this discussion will achieve any particular result or get us any- where; but the United States would certainly popularize itself with the other 25 nations, which also have a place in the new world, if it could invent a proper, distinctive designation for its citizens. We go so far as to suggest that the Washington Government establish a research foundation to this end."
