Ottawa, Sept, 2.--Mr. Sastri, Can- ada's visitor from India, has now ar- rived in the capital, and will spend most of the next week here.

The plan contemplated is that F. Ackland, who has held this office since 1909, is to be transferred to a King's printer office, which will Le revived for his benefit, In his place, Mr. Murdock will be likely to bring in J. A. Woodward, an old associate of the railway brotherhoods. Mr. Woodward was the founder of a weekly called the Canadian Railroad- er, which perished in the slump two years ago, and at present he is con- ducting a printing business in Mon- treal.

Upon the death of the ~ American Princess the interest will revert to her son, husband of Princess Xenia. In the event of his death or that of his wife, the fortune will go to a male heir, if there be one, as the Am- erican law provides that a trust fund shall cease with the third generation. Young Leeds and his wife are liv- ing with Prince and Princess Chris- topher at a fashionable hotel in Paris, lowance to them enables them to en- tertain lavishly.

Ottawa, Sept. 2.--Of the authoriz- ed issue of 450,000 British war medals, 216,359 have been distribut- ed to date by the Honors and Awards Department of the Militia here, and of the authorized issue of 350,000 victory medals, 200,891 have thus far been distributed, according to Cap- tain A. C. Chadwick, in a statement today on the progress of his work, and in reply to the complaint that thousands of veterans had not ye* re- ceived their war honors. British war medals are issued to all those who went overseas on duty prior to No- vember 11th, 1918, and the victory medals are given to all those who served on the establishment of ar authorized unit in a theatre of war There could only be two reasons for failure of veterans to get their medals, it was stated by officials of the department. One is lack of sup- ply of these medals from Great Brii- ain, where they are being produced and sent to Canada in shipments of 20,000. There has not yet been any scarcity of medals with which to sup- ply the demend from soldiers or next of kin. The other reason is failure ply the department with their latest addresses. Post cards are being sent out to soldiers or their next of kin, at the rate of 1,600 a day. Of these a small percentage comes back through failure of the interested parties to supply their new addresses. In June the percentage of returns uncalled for was a Httle higher than is usual. In that month 3,736 cards were sent out, 2,132 came back with the desired informa- tion and 1,226 were returned unde- livered.
