Aug: 1 1. rorre Theunls, premier of Belgium, ha spent the greater part of his ministerial career In smoothing over th political difficulties between Britain and France. He is now. by experience. Europ'en Ideal bulldei of diplomatic bridges.

Jt Is, therefore, Interesting to recall the fact the M. Theunls" parents wanted him to become an engineer and build bridges for Belgium. But In' turning from the clear waters of his country's rivers to the opaque steam of politics, he has also established himself ns a human filter. Muddy water flows into th Belgian state department, and pure trickle of common sensa comes out. Theunls has become a habit at Downing street and the Qua! d'Orsay.

England, France and Germany know it. When everything seems blackest, when conference after conference breaka down, there Is still Theunls and his bridge. SOUGHT BY LEADERS. Llody George. I'olncare and Brland have each asked him to build one.

Now it Is MacDonald't turn. During Loyd George's famous ooffee-and-diplomacy breakfasts at Downing street, when tha reparations' tangle was It lt worst, and the wise men of Europe were gathered in London ta unravel it, they sent for Theunbj at all hours of the day and night. He could always be relied on to say the right thing with Just tha right degree of warmth, and so avoid an open rupture. Theunls was born at Montignee, near Llese, in 1873. He Is tha son of General Theunls, who commanded at Namur during the war.

In 1914 M. Theunis was engaged In purchasing war supplies In London for the Belgian government He became Belgian finance minister In 1920 and. In 1921, Belgium'! premier. His rise has been breath less, meteoric, and people won dered what he would do. He af once endeared himself to the Bel gians by reducing taxation.

VERY APPROACHABLE. Theunis is one of the most ap proachable of premiers. He will tell you all you wish to. know, especially with regard to Belgium' priority to reparations. This 1 quite naturally his favorite theme, and when he talks about it he dee so with crystal-like clarity, stand lng with his head slightly thrown hack, and his palms open toward you.

"I assure you," his mannarjl conveys, "there la nothing up mjr sleeve." as the business representative tor the balance of the term. This post tlon was formerly held by L.

NORTHWEST Britain Announces Invention Which Will Revolutionize World Architecture. BY UNIVERAt BEHVICE LONDON, Aug.

16 Houses of beautiful color and of varied design: houses with the equivalent of marble walls, oak panelling, parquet floors and tiled bathrooms; nouses with rounded corners and ceilings, everything and everything sound and damp-proof; houses, in fact, with the refinements and the labor-saving and hygienic devices at present found only in tha costliest mansions and in hospitals. And all erected In two or three days at a cost of $2000. Such Is the vision conjured up by Commander Flurney, M. the famous Inventor of the paravane, which saved so many ot our ships in the war. It is made a reality, he claims, by a new building material invented by an English chemist, and by an entirely new system of construction which he himself has perfected.

He is starting to build two houses. Here Is one of the revolutions hinted at by Mr. Wheatley, the Minister pf health, in tho House of Commons. This would-be householder orders his house on Monday and is living, in it at the week-end. CONSTRI CTED IN SECTIONS.

The new building material which take3 the place of bricks, has a cement basis, and the necessary Ingredients can be made in, any color. It seems as tough as steel and feels like wood. It can bo molded In any shape, and the color goes right through; It. Instead of being rough, like concrete, it is smooth as Ivory, and there are no air bubbles. It does not crumble, like concrete.

It merely cracks under a compression of 4,700 pounds to the square inch, and to cause cracks the compression must be continued for five minutes. Yet it is only a little heavier than wood. Large standardized sections will be made in factories and transported to the site of tho house. The various sections fit together and bolt. So rapid will be the construction that, once the foundation Is laid, men can come nlong with the ground floor on lorries, erect it and throw it open to the tenants the same day.

rn ge rice wor at about 8 per cubic foot. "I did not intend that this Should be made public until the first two houses, now under construction, had been built and shown," said Commander Uurney. "I have been working on this problem for some time, and tho laboratory experiments and the design stages are now completed." His desk was littered with samples of the new preparation made in form of tiles red and green and buff. "A reduction In the cost of houses appears to- be possible only if weight id reduced," he said. "If the weight can be reduced to, say, a quarter of the present weight, it will allow of the various pafts of the hou.so being built in a factory, under factory on.lditlOns, and utilizing all the most modern appliances that science can provide.

MOVABLE HOMES. "Then by virtue of its reduced weight, the house can be transplanted in large sections, each section being finished so that erection Is all that is necessary. Under such conditions it is not impossible for two or three houses to bo put up in two or three days. "Ey virtue of the fact that sections have been previously built, dried, and seasoned, there's no reason why the house should remain unoccupied. It -has already been 'dried out' in the factory.

"So far as the production of these houses in quantity is concerned it is merely a matter of finance and organization. Factories can be built on the unit system to turn out-BOO or 1000 complete houses In a year.

LONDON, Aue. 16. Liverpool Cathedral, Just opend hythe king, ii net only larger and loftier than any other English church (the crown of the vault stands thirteen feet higher than Westminster Abbey), but It Is also, to the best of our knowledge, being more soundly built. The lmpermanence of modern secular buildings Is obvious. They change with Industrial fashions, and their slight walls will decay with time.

The full usefulness of Portland cement and applied science for ensuring durability is being proved today by an architect here and there, who may expect that future generations will wish to preserve the original beauty of his design unchanged. Liverpool Cathedral has three Important conditions making for its success. namely, a great site, a great architect, and a great building committee. The site is one of the sandstone ridges of Liverpool running roughly parallel to tho Mersey. The cathedral can be seen for thirty miles along the Mersey, and as far south ns Chester.

Gilbert the architect, had a father and grandfather who had spent their lives studying Gothic architecture, and he himself must have Inherited much of its difficult technique, since ho won the. tli.catheilral wiih apparent ease in the face of so many accomplished rivals at the early age of 24. His design is not in any of the orthodox Gothic "styles" of the revival. Essential Gothic he holds to be a of masses rather than of lines and of effects of light and shade rather than a correct repetition of period moldings. Freed from antlrpiarianlsm Mr.

Scott has been able to focus his whole mind and Imagination on the creation of a great work of religious art. He soon found that he was as little a.ble to carry out a cathedral to a standard design as were the cathedral builders of old. The great possibilities of the site soon began to cause a chanie. Tha design beyond which again are nave on the north side and choir on the south. The completed part Is the "eastern" block up to and including the first pair of transepts.

The stone used is pink sandstone, which externally -goes a smoky pink, but on the Inside-, lit by stained glass, has a cer'ain clearness and warmth. The lighting ot the Interior has been carefully As in French Gothic, the direction of movement Is upwards-. There Is no clerestory, and the nave arcades rises to the height of the ordinary triforium in English Gothic. The enormous vault is lit only from the east window, and from below presents a series 'of broad lights and shadows. The beautiful lithe tracery in the recessed windows contrasts with the masslveness of the walls.

The great tower still to be built, and broad, catholic porch below it facing towards the river, with its wide flight of steps, is the keynote of the design. CQNCuRD NOTES CONCORD, Aug. 16.
