London United Press notes Continental cartoon papers justify humor about British travelers abroad. A returning Englishman asks where the odd tourists come from and cites Britons seen in cafes in Paris, women smoking openly, and even attending Mass.

Examiner urges sweeping freight rate changes for Gulf coast grain
Washington Oct. 4 Examiner I L Koch recommends to the Interstate Commerce Commission a broad modification of ocean borne freight rates to and from the southwest through Gulf of Mexico ports. He proposes keeping the line from Fort Worth through Cushing and Winfield to Salina, Kansas, undisturbed for grain rates to the Gulf coast. He suggests Texas ports gain advantage over New Orleans, with grain rates from Kansas west of the line, Galveston about two cents lower per hundred pounds than New Orleans, from Oklahoma points three cents lower, and from Texas points four cents lower. Petroleum rates would remain unchanged and overall grain rates to the gulf need not be materially altered.
