lO THE MANCHESTER GUARDIAN, FRIDAY, APRIL 29, 1932 THE NATIONAL LIBERAL FEDERATION AT CLACTON WIRELESS NOTES The Evening Features "Community Singing" "Neiv Songs for Old" Play Chamber Music By 610,000 AWARD TO BANK Portuguese Notes Case MAJORITY DECISION IN THE LORDS metaphor insisted nevertheless that Liberals were sold a pup at the general election a golden retriever, as compared with the 1924 Red Setter. That was worthy of the paternal mind. He went on to argue against Protection with considerable skill, -but his main -point was that the fight for Free Trade must be taken up at once and vigorously in the constituencies, and especially in the 470 constituencies represented by Conservatives. He stopped there, but the moral of his contention could not escape anybody. You cannot campaign for Free Trade in Tory constituencies unless you renounce all obligation to the Government.

This moral was pointc by some other speakers. Mr. Aubrey Herbert, for instance, suggested that i th.e Free Trade fight was to be a real one by-elections must be contested without reference to whether it embarrassed anybody and without tho Whips seeking excuses for not fighting in the state of a constituency organisation or huch-1 ike pretexts. Mr. Aluri Llewclljn, who wanted to fight the Croydon by-election but minutes' topical advice to the gardener who intends spending the week-end at hi3 hobby.

At 7 5 the B.B.O.'s Assistant Music Director will speak for a quarter of an hour on the music we are to hear in the next few weeks, and at 7 30 Professor Ritchie wilt take us into the open air again with an account, which is one of his Changing Face of Nature series, of how the farmer has transformed wild life. Later in the 'evening at 9 20 Mr. tJorald Barry will broadcast his weekly Here and Now talk. The play is to be broadcast from tho Noitii Regional at 30. Its title, "A Work of Art.

and its scene, the parlour tA I the National Liberal Federation at do, made all the difference. The appeal of the bank succeeded, and judgment should be entered lor it for til0.392. The appeal of Messrs. Waterlow should be dismissed. "Final and Conclusive Proof Lord Atkin delivered judgment to the same effect as Lord Sankey.

The contention, he said, that the when it issued good notes to the face value of over 100,000,000 escudos in return for no consideiation, suffered no damage, but the cost of printing had found favour with nioie than one judicial personage for whose opinions he had unfeigned respect. But the result of that c.iiiten-tion was sufficiently striking. If the issue of 10,000 good notes by the bank lor nothing involved them in no los it would seem to that the issue of a similar "amount lor gouda or durations would be a complete in. He would have tbuuuhl this result, in the language of one of the Law l.oids. nmnilestly impossible, but rules ot law had to be tested in and mu-t suiviye the application of first principle.

For my part," ho added. 1 cannot see the way to decide this lot Mo.ssrs. Waterlow without ievois.mii a number of authorities which have governed our conmietc-ial law, a.s 1 untieistand it, from earliest Mines. There is one final and conclusive mouf of the fallacy of the defendants' contention to which I have never heard iiii answer. By issuing a note the bank piovides the holder of it 'with a piece cf currency which he can bring to the bank the next day and compel the bank to receive in discharge of his oveidraft or in payment under a contiact to iuy securities or bullion.

If the Bank relea-es a debt of 500 escudos or parts with 500 escudos' worth of gold it loses 500 escudos; but if it issues for nothinu a 500-escudo note today by the return of which to-morrow the debt of 500 escudos is dischaiged or the 500 escudos' worth of gold is bought and paid for, it is said that it loses nothing. I lefuse to proclaim to business men in this country or abroad that our law is so unreasonable." Loid Atkin added that the appeal of the Bank would be allowed, the judgment of the Court of Appeal set aside. and Mr. Justice Wrieht's judgment increased to 610,392 damages for the Bank, who would have the costs in the House of Lords and in both courts below. The appeal of the defendants The broadcasting from the four prin-! cipal B.B.C.

stations this evening is roughly apportioned as follows: An hour and a half for music: seventy-five minutes. hah" an lwur fur a play; the remainder light music and enteituin-ment. The National at eight o'clock is to repeat the regional feature of last evening, Now Songs for Old," which has been devised by Mr. Gordon McConnel. At 15 the three regional are to broadcast the singing of old and new songs by the National Choi us, led by Mr.

Joseph Lewis. The concert is called Community Singing, and, as at previous broadcasts of this kind, the listener ill be invited to take part. These invitations to sing communally with the loud-speaker always appear to bo quaint- Do individual listeners or families join their laggard voices there is always a painiul lime-lag in community singing with the welt-drilled chorus in the studio? And do they afterwards write to the B.B.C, not to admit that with no visible conductor to urge them on they finished each song a bar and a half late, but to declare their enjoyment of it? For ourselves we aie willing to leiue the performance to Mr. Lewis and his singers', satisfied to emulate their strict tempo and precise phrasing at odd moments of the day as the mood takes us. All the talks aie National features.

Captain Crawsliay at 0 DO is to give fifteen YESTERDAY'S Songs Old and New New Songs for Old," a programme arranged by Gordon McConnel and Christopher Stone, was broadcast last night fiom the London Regional. This was not the first, of such programmes, and it suffered rather in comparison with the earlier ones, for it was not so lively in spirit, and its contrasts were less pointed. It seemed a pity that with Stuait Robertson, Olive Groves, Denis O'Neil, the Revue Choius, and the Wireless Oiehestra all there, a great part of the piociammc should have been gramophone records. Still, the modern idiom of wailing Americanisms could not have been otherwise illustrated. The old s-ongs.

included The Powder Monkey," and I'll take you borne again, Kathleen a melodious song which made us feel affectionate toward the old type. Miss Olive Gioves went one better than "Only a Baby's Rattle," which she sang last time; she offered us, "Close the tdiuttens, Willy's dead." One searcely knows whether the feeling of the old or the inanity of the new is the more incredible. Both kinds arc amusing, but only if we detacli ourselves; on the other hand' no effort is needed when tlieic is a lousing choiits such a "Listen to tiie soldieis in the park," which carries the listener away as much by its own jolly merits as by its associations.

Waterlow Judgment in favour of the Bank of Portugal for 610,392 was given in the House of Lords yesterday by the Lord Chancellor (Lord Sankey) on the appeals in the action in which the bank claimed damages from Messrs.

Water-low and Sons, printers, of Great Winchester Street, London, E.C. The bank's case was that Messrs. Waterlow acted negligently in printing Portuguese banknotes, which were delivered to an unauthorised man named Marang, who put them into circulation. The notes were withdrawn and honoured by the bank, who claimed in respect of the consequent loss. In the King's Bench Division Mr.

Justice Wright awarded the bank 569,421, but the Court of Appeal reduced the amount to 300,000. Both parties appealed. The hearing of the action occupied 43 days in the three courts. The Lord Chancellor, giving judgment. said the bank, which was equal to the National Bank of Portugal, ordeied Messre.

Waterlow to print 600,000 notes of a face value of 500 escudos. An escudo being worth each note was worth approximately, a 5 note. Messrs. Waterlow were misled into issuing 580,000 notes to Marang, but that was without the authority or the knowledge of the bank. Marang was one of a group of criminals.

The criminals, having obtained the notes from Messrs. Waterlow, introduced them into Portugal and put a very large number of them into circulation. To facilitate circulation the criminals formed a bank known as the Banco Angola Metropolc, and the Bank of Portugal, in view of its obligation to the public. decided to call in the issue and to give a good new note for every one of the notes already in circulation which was presen ted to it. It ought to be said that no suggestion had been made, or could be made, aeainst the honest of Mcssis.

Waterlow. They were, just as much as tne bank was, victims of lraud. lien tne bank brought its action against Messrs. Waterlow the particulais ot damage originally amounted to 1.115,613, but the bank professed itself willing to give credit tor money tliey Jiati received in the liquidation of the Banco Angola jietiopoic, ana so ttie net claim was 010,302. Effect on Credit Mr.

Justice 'Wright was of opinion that by December 16, the bank might have known the tests by which they could dis tinguish some of the forged notes, and he held that from that date Messrs. Waterlow were not liable for damages. In the Court of Appeal Lords Justices Greer and Slesscr thought tho date should be December 10, and upon that reduced the damages co 300,000. Lord Justice Scrut-ton took a contraiy view. He was ot opinion that the bank were justified in changing all notes up to as late a date as December 26.

He also held that a differ ent measure of damaces applied namelv that the oniv loss which the bank had suffered was the loss incurred in printing new notes to give in exchange for the old.

BROADCAST The American Relay Last nitrbt another broadcast to America was given from London Regional, and on this occasion a talk on public-school lite in Britain was given by-Mr. Maurice Jacks, bead master of Mill Hill School.

Perhaps as a to Ameiican hustle Air. Jacks was allowed a bare fifteen minutes for this subject, and in sn short a time there was little opportunity for him to offer to Ameiican listeners more than what might be called a glorified prospectus of public schools in gencial. Samples of American wireless entertainment would lead us to think that, they prefer something a little" snappier than Alii toil ono week and Mill Hill the next. It would doubtless have been more entertaining if the. points of difference between tho English and American systems of education could have beou stressed, but there again one come against the obstacle of time.

It is very likely, however, that at least the "human" touches in Mr. talk would awaken responsive emotions on the other side ol the water. K. H.

BRITISH MOQUETTES An Old-Established Industry In his comments which appeared in the.se columns yesterday on the tendency of prices to rise because of the new import duties, the manager of one large furnishing firm stated: "Many of our upholstery materials, such as and moquettes, come from abroad at present at any rate." While agreeing that this has been the case for a long period. Mr.

Harold King, managing director of the Manchester firm of John A. Wood and points out that, as it stands, the statement might give the wrong impression that moquettes are not made in this country. In an interview with a representative of the "Manchester Guardian" yesterday he stated that this particular industry was really a British one half a century ago, and that we were then suppliers to the Continent. "Only two or three days ago," he continued," received a letter from a large Continental firm in which they refer to importations of English moriuettes on a large scale in 1880, and to their subsequent purchase ot English loonig in order to start manufao turiitjr for the-nfeelves. Then came import duties and the cutting out of British competition as far as that and some other countries were concerned.

"But the manufacture of moquette3 in this country." Mr. King added, "has not been discontinued. We have "continued to make them in spite of keen competition from the Continent aided by the lower wages paid in those countries, and since the duties were imposed in this country the ten or dozen existing firms have been working night as well as day in order to cope with orders."

Cluef did not, launched' out in a sweeping- criticism of the Whips and Abingdon Street for their reluctance to put tip candidates at recent by-elections. Mr.

Ramsay Muir thought this criticism of headquarters rather overshot the mark, since it was not for want of will, but for want of funds that headquarters had not contested some of the by-elections. THE S1MON1TES Once the strength of any latent Simouite sympathies was put to the test. Mr. J. G.

Morgan (of Exeter) argued that the difference between Sir Herbert Samuel and Sir John Simon was less one of principle than of degree and that for the sake of that difference it was not worth while forfeiting all chances of reunion. Mr. Morgan, as the voting on an amendment which he moved showed, was in a minority 01 about a score in a conference of 1,500. The majority, too, voted him down with brusque impatience. The declaration of policy got through with only one material amendment.

Major Nathan and Miss Megan Lloyd George appealed successfully to the conference to make it plain that the party stands by the national development policy ot Wo can conquer uneuiDlovinent." Miss Lloyd George, who becomes increasingly effective and persuasive, suggested in an excellent speech that the development policy had been stowed away in the hold and marked required during the voyage" largely through the indiffcr ice of Ministers who were once its sponsors.

He was bound in chains and tnkrii into the car. which was driven buck into the country. After going several miles the car was stopped, and it is stated that Nixon was tried by "couit martial" for an offence alleged uiiainst him. Tho car. to which had been affixed caids with the words Spies beware of the I.U.A.," was then driven back to the outskirts of Armagh, where Nixon was put on to the street still bound in chains.

The car was driven off. Nixon managed to drag himself to an adjacent police barracks, wheio the chains were removed. The owner of the car was later informed where it bad been abandoned, and recovered it. ROMAN CATHOLIC CHURCH CONSECRATED The Koman Catholic Church of Ht. Peter, Greengatc, Palford, being now clear of the debt of Hs erection 5S yeais asro, was yesterday consecrated by the Bishop of Salford r.

HenshawL The Bishop, addressing the parishioners, said that the cost of erecting the church would have been paid off long ago. but large sums of money had been spent on what was of primary importance to the Catholic faith education ami the building of Catholic schools. He congratulated the parishioners on their success in collecting 1.100 for the hureh in the past two and a half years. It was a feat that was truly remarkable when one took into consideration the extreme poverty of the district. The consecration coincides with the silver jubilee of Father Birch, who is a much-loved figure in Greengatc.

MR. T. ROBINSON Mr Thomas Robinson, of Cargo, near Carlisle, whose death has occurred at the age of seventy-eight, spent over fifty years in the public service of Cumberland, the bodies on which he, served including the Cumberland County Council, the Carlisle Rural District Council! and the Cumberland Public Assistance Com mittee. He was a member of an old family of Cumberland yeomen, and farmed at Cargo in succession to his late father. He met with considerable success as a breeder of hunters.

A keen angler, he had the net fishing on the Biver Eden at Cargo, leased from the Earl of Lonsdale. Mr. Robinson was appointed a justice of the peace for Cumberland in Januarv, 1918. He was a churchwarden at Rockcliffe, near Carlisle, jor over torty years Mr. John- Svkhs.

of Haucrhtnn. Tar- porley, in a Liverpoblnursing home last night at the sure of "44 Wp was a well-known member of the Cheshire Hunt and a breeder of riding ponies. -He was associated with his father, Mr. Sykes, of Poulton-le-Fylde, in many Hackney Show successes. The opening of to be a substantial part of its legal wealth was nothing more than woithless paper would have created an economic nanic and confusion which would have caused the gravest damage to the credit of the bank, and might even have shaken the whole economic and commercial life ot the comitrv.

Loid Sankev said he could not regard the hank's los as merely nominal, or as lepresentcd by the c-Ost. of printing new notes. By reason of Messr-i. Waterlow's bieach of contiact the bank had to increase their note issue by UI4.S59,0U0 escmlos, and received in exchange foi each bank-note no value at all, but only worthless bits of miner. upon each ol the irood notes so exchanged, the assets of the shareholders were diminished to the extent of tiie liability which tlie bank assumed for the good note given for the worthless one.

Value for Every Note S'-oiiie confusion appeared to have arisen in tho irasc by dwelling too much upon the f.ict that the note-, were not convertible into gold. In my opinion, said Lord Sankey, that fact ha nothina to do with tho case. In a country here there is a managed curieucy a note when issued by a central hank becomes part of the curieucy of the countiy, and obtains a certain value whiuh may fur the moment be called its market value. The fact that it is not convertible into nold is reflected in the jii ice the note fetuhe in the terms of any toreign exchange. Whatever may be the condition- imposed as to reserves and whether the currency is convertible or inc-nnvcrtihlo a bank of issue receives value for eveiy note which it issues.

One might usefully consider two persons arnviug at ttie bank and wanting each a 500-escudo note. One, an Englishman, handed in rive English pounds, the other person handed a forged note. In ttie first case the hank had obtained in exchange for a Sffil-ecudo note rive good English pounds, in the second it received a worthless foru'ed note. It was not possible to say that in the second case the bank bad suffered no damage, because it could punt and issue a third 500-escudo note. For that note also it could have obtained value.

In truth it had lost the face value of the second note by rcason of the fact that it had only got a worthless note in exehanee. If unissued notes had been burnt in a cellar the position would be different. Value attached when the notes were put into circulation bv the bank.

Minority View Lord "Wanington aid that where Hie bank elected, as it had done, to tieat the spin ions notes on the same footing as genuine notes all it did was to accept an obligation to pay the holders in curieucy i.e.. notes. All it bad to do was to take so many pieces of printed paper from its existing stock or have more notes created if the stock was insufficient. In either case the lo-- to the bank was confined to the cost of piocunng the necessaiy paper and of piinting the neeesaiy notes. In his view, therefore, the bank's appeal should be dismissed with costs and the appeal of Waterlow allowed with costs.

The direction that there should be payment to the plaintiffs of the paid into court would stand Lord ItussoU of Killowen declared that the hank offered no evidence to suppoil their claim that tliev suffered aim damage every time they exchanged a Mil ran? note. When Hint proportion wa. shown to be l'alse nothing lejiiainerl to Mipport that claim. Me therefoie agieed with Lord Justice that judgment should be entered for the bank for the cost of printim; Hie notes, 8.f)23 He would aecordinsrly allow the appeal of Messis. Waterlow and dismiss the bank's appeal.

Lord Kus-ell added: "One of your Lordships, in effect, has accused those who differ from him in the case of upsettina a number of autlioiitics governing our commercial law. I am unconscious of any such assault upon authority. I am only conscious of deciding that the" rank have not proved they suffered the enormous damages claimed. I confess I derive some consolation from the knowledge that in this alleged act of violence I am abetted by one Whose pre-eminence as a commercial lawyer is well and long established. By a majoiity ot three (Lords Sankey.
