Clipping the Lords THERE WILL BE approval in many quarters in Britain of the proposal of the government in the Speech from the Throne to restrict the powers of the House of Lords something which the Lords will have to approve themselves before it can become law. The British system of government has long been the shining example. to the world, in the development of democracy and democratic methods. If it has any weakness, the clinging to the Lords, reflecting the British love for tradition, has been one. In Canada, the Senate, entirely appointive with no hereditary aspect, has been somewhat of .a counterpart. Kare, however, has it been m modern history for either Lords in Britain or Senate in Canada to flout the expressed will of the people through interfering with legislation from the elective section of Parliament. That is why both have lasted so long as a tempering influence. 'It ;is doubtful, it would appear at this distance, if Lords would, when it came down to cases, interfere even with legislation for steel nationalization which, it is said, the Labor government fears. But in ?any case, the government "desires to take no chances. ADAMS GOES NORTH AT THE AGE of seventy-three, the able and respected Most Reverend Walter Robert Adams, Anglican Archbishop of Kootenay and Metropolitan of the ecclesiastical province of British Columbia, relinquishes the comparative ease of his seat at Vernon in peaceful and sunny Okanagan to go north to the frontier town of Dawson and assume the rigors of rugged Yukon. In the way of ministerial progress, it would seem the Archbishop has chosen to move in reverse direction. In fact, it may be considered a uniaue move. Yukon diocese, of course, is not so rigorous as it was in the days of Stringer, and to lesser degree irrthe time of Sovereign and Geddes. The airplane and the wireless.in latter years "have removed many problems and much discomfort from ecclesiastical ministration and administration but still the north ' is considered usually as a young man's country. Bishop Adams displays the courage and the initiative of youth in. at his advanced age. choosing toigo i north. . He will, . doubtless, ... give to Yukon the anility, dignity and spiritual leadership for which he has been distinguished in the. progressive charges which have led to the hitrhest office in the cift of his church in British Columbia the arch-bifchopship and metropolitanship which he, of course, retains. BILt BAKER ON KISSING ALEX HUNTER, editor of the Prince Rupert Daily News,' warned his readers in a brief but pointed editorial the other night that kissing-should be done with care because colds are -going around and kissing "is definitely one perfect -way of picking up germs." We are happy to know that the state of politics, employment, city finances, shipping, labor relations, pulp mills and fish catches is so iperfect in Rupert that the Daily News editor can settle down and devote his attention to such problems as kissing. Perhaps this column would get into less trouble if it followed the same formula, and perhaps it would enjoy life just as much. Alex, however, overlooks some of the finer points of the art of osculation. He implies that it is okay to go dating with one who has a cold, but safer not to kiss. If the date is in a closed theatre, we think there is probably as much, danger of catching the cold as if the osculation were engaged in. If the principals, however, were walking in the open air, especially during a Skeena River downpour, probably the germs would be dissipated in the night air and then the kiss, if it occurred, would have to assume all the blame. Alex started out to cold germs but he did Canadian womanhood a preat wrong by saying that germs simply cling to a caress. He did not say that pimply cold germs thus cling, as he certainly might have for the sake of civic reputation, etc. He closes by advising to play coy and be careful." This is hardly in line with the warnings of many watchful mothers that kissing, cold or no old, is dangerous. This brings, us to the old story of the girl who told her sweetheart that "honestly, in all my life I've only been kissed by two parties." To which he replied "Yes, I know: democrats and republicans. So we think Editor Alex had better climb down off the fence and tell us" avidvreaders which side he is. on, democrat or 'republican, and whether he is 'carrying on a subversive crusade against all kissing, or is merely giving free advertising to the medical profession, which seems not to -realize tha6 editors can't live on love alone, germ-free though it be. Dill Baker In Ketchikan Chronicle. WILL BE DUKE OF EDINBURGH Consensus Favors Tliis as Title lor Philip Iouutbatten. By RUSSELL LANDSTROM LONDON (AP The consensus among well-posted persons close to the Royal household Is that the King will confer upon his future son-in-law, Lieut. Philip Mountbatten, the title of Duke of Edinburgh and possibly create for him a British princedom, as Queen Victoria did for her consort. Albert. Although the King may choose from among at least five titles. it is generally thought Edin burgh would be the most accept nble. No small consideration Is that Queen Elizabeth, belonging to a distinguished Scottish line. would be honored In the choice. Certainly the Scots themselves would take special pride in the designation of Princess Elisabeth's husband-to-be as officially, one of them. The title, vacated in 1900 by the death of Prince Alfred, son of Queen Victoria, is one of the foremost In the kingdom. Among the other eligibles. the dukedom of Susex has plared high in the speculation. This title was last held by the sixth son of George III, who died .n 1843. Shortly after announcement of the royal engagement It was given top preference by mcst competent sources. Mentioned frequently, too. is the Duke of Clarence. The last Duke of Clarence died in his youth, affianced to Princc-as Marv. Who sub.'wniipntlv m his younger brother destined to become George V. Considerations of sentiment and delicacy perhaps also woula eliminate the dukedom of Con- naught. The last who bore that title died during the war Although the King could ernni Philip a brand new title, inform ed opinion largely agrees that nt- prefers to revive one previously held in the Royal Family. - By letters patent Victoria in 1840 gave Albert precedence nXt to herself but it was not unil 17 years later that she erantp.i him status cf prince comort Ii. each case the honors were entirely personal and were not intended to apply to husbands ol future queens. Special artists, .commissioneu by the King's officers-at-arms are working on a new coat ol arms for Princess Elizabeth am one for Mountbatten. No detail have been disclosed, but it i: likely that the princess' arm will be quartered with those o: the Mountbatten family. Philip's coat of arms may incorporate devices of the Mount-battens and of Greece and Denmark, of which countries he wa a prince before he assumed Brir ish citizenship last spring. Ii hlight even embrace the roya. arms of England, because of h:. Impending marriage to the heir presumptive to the throne. Loved German POW Blames Her Parents. HORSHAM, Sussex, Eng. W A 15-year-old girl who told a juvenile court she tried to run away with a German prisoner-of-war and later attempted suicide because her parents failed to show affection for her was placed on probation. The magistrate told her he was not blaming the German, who "tried to make you happy." A letter from the girl to her parents, read in court, said: "You think because he is German he is not 'human, but I love him even if I am Onlv 15. If dart nnri vnn had shown me affection I might not have gone with him, but I wanted to feel somebody thought something of me and really loved me.

For one thing, she has killed the chaperone of pre-war days stone dead. Nowadays guesta go to dance patronized by the young princess with no more ceremony than the village girl goes to a local "hop" without footmen or dowagers In tow. Young society women arrive at the front entrance clutching their long skirts to keep them out of the dust.

Sometimes parties of laughlne, girls arrive sitting on each other's knees in old family cars Many have rushed home from jobs in offices, schools, stores and hospitals and hurried Into their glad rags.
