BAFFLING PROBLEMS
NEW MARKETS AND REGAINING OLD ONES. LONDON, 25th May. Lord Birkenhead returned to London last evening, and attended the Canadian Club dinner. In proposing the toast of the, British Empire, he said that statecraft was never confronted by more baffling and complex problems than the finding of new markets andregaining those lost in Europe, but if the problems were boldly and fearlessly laced, there was no reason why the Empire should, not be as self-supporting as were the United States of America. Sir James Allen addressed the school children at Hackney on Empire Day, and was also the principal speaker at a large assembly of school children in the Guildhall, where ho delivered a patriotic speech. Lady Allen, with other Dominion representatives, laid a wreath on the Cenotaph on behalf of New Zealand.
