nton im The second richest man in the world is the eighteenâ€"yearâ€"old Maâ€" harajah of Gwalior , who possesses jewels alone worth 4,000,000 pounds. He was named George, after the King, by his father, who was so loyal to the Emperor of India that he alsol named his daughter Mary. Although the Amulree committee was a selfâ€"constituted body with no legal or constitutional significance its report seems to have been faâ€" vorably received. The committee inâ€" eluded among its members a past president of the Royal Institute of British Architects, three housing auâ€" thorities, a director of the Bank of England, and two celebrated _ proâ€" gressive business men as well as some technical authorities. After an intensive search into preâ€" vailing building costs and land charges, the committee has come to the conclusion that subsidizstion would only be necessary where land is exceptionally expensive and rates high, or where the workers cannot afford 10 shillings a week. But most important to the brick industry, the committee declares that a housing commission such as they envisage should organize â€" w supply of materials so as to keep down costs by making demand a known quantity. Leaders of the industry declare that if they could be given a guarâ€" antee that local housing schemes, once started, would be carried to completion, they could expand withâ€" out fear and so help to stabilize the figures of employment. Such a state of affairs has been visualized as an integral part of any new national housing plan by the National Housing Committee, under the chairmanship of Lord Amulree, viceâ€"president of the Building Inâ€" dustries National Council. The proposed Statutory Commisâ€" sion would survey housing needs, help local authorities, and see that slum clearance and rehousing were brought under one coherent national echeme. _ The building _ program would be financed, Lord Amulree‘s committee declares by a National Housing Stock under Treasury guarâ€" antee. The committee has budgeted for a minimum of 1,000,000 new houses or of 10 shillings a week or less. revious experience of the brick trade show that boom conditions, which almost invariably include the launching of large public building schemes do not last long. As soon as confidence is lost, the local auâ€" thorities drop their housing plans. And the brick industry, expanded to meet an expected constant large deâ€" mand over several years, suffers imâ€" mediately. _ Many men are thrown out of work. The present deluge of orders reâ€" sults from "a poor man‘s boom." It concerns _ only manufacturers of bricks for the cheaper type of dwellâ€" ing houses. More expensive bricks and stone facings used for important public and private buildings are not yet in great demand. Consequently exact and pertinent figures on the subject are difficult to find. Demands for bricks are not equal in all parts of the country. But on the average in areas surâ€" rounding large towns, each month sees 75 new hands being added to every 1000 employed. At the same time the total wages bill of the inâ€" dustry has risen by 13.3 per cent in a year. The demand for newlabor is greatâ€" est and most constant in the Peterâ€" borough and Durham districts. But the outskirts of London are so short of necessary bricks that imports from the Netherlands and Northern Europe have had to be increased threefold. Returns show that _ in Map,; 1933, 10,563,000 bricks were intported. The figures for May this yeer rtose to 25,966,000. June shows an increase to a total of 32,887,000 bricks. _ Elsewhere, although many manufacturers declare themselves to be "snowed under," employment . is improving _ without showing _ any rapid rige. A rush to keep pace with orders, several firms working as much as #ix hours overtime, and a 300 per cent. increase in imports of bricks to fulfill demands which cannot be satisfied by home production are disclosed as items in expansion prébâ€" lems now facing brick makers. { Meanwhile _ added significance is given to these disclosurers, it is said by the recent publication of the reâ€" port of the National Housing Comâ€" mittee, which suggests a Statutory Commision to organize a supply of materials for a 10â€"years housing scheme. It is considered that this would have an important effect in stabilizing "seeâ€"saw" motions of deâ€" mands for bricks. ku ce _ _ i * ACCeon t _ RCEEvECY â€" y Britain has bequeathed the country‘s brickâ€"making industry so much work that manufacturers are finding difâ€" ficulty in getting it all done.

The Winter Protection of Cod Liver Dil _ A doctor who was called said that the reason of the heart attack, which caused death, was too much exertion trying to get the engine started. He gave it as his opinon that only â€" a man in fine physical condition should ever try to crank an engine. +The effort was too great for a man of seventy and even for a man of lesser years it was dangerous. One does not see so much of this now as during the winter when a number of cars are hard to start.

Sanderson & Company Meanwhile agriculturalists of Linâ€" colnshire and the sugar beet counâ€" ties are also enjoying success. The beet lifting began with a record English crop of nearly 400,000 acres. Factories have had to raise their capacity, some raising it as much as 300 tons a day, to deal with â€" the increased yield. Lincolnshire growers are now producing double the yield of beet per acre compared with only a few years ago. _ One of the latter was shown at a recent meeting of the Royal Hortiâ€" cultural Society at Westminster. It was a tree, known by the name of Liquidambar Orientalis, which had never previously borne fruit since its planting at Woburn Abbey nearly 100 years ago. At the â€" Horticultural Society‘s meeting a new variety of greenhouse Bougainvillia, usually with mauve colored blossoms, was also on view., It had been named Orange King. Its flowers were of luscious orange color, fading into rose. A new hardy fuâ€" chsia has also flowered, and been named Mrs. Popple.
