Brookwood Military Cemetery in London, where 428 U. S. soldiers lie buried, was officially handed over to the U. S. Government by its British owners. The Channel Tunnel question, recently revived, is shortly to be brought up in the House of Commons. The approximate cost of building the sub-channel tunnel from Dover to Calais was computed at about $130,000,000. Although Secretary of State Charles E. Hughes is to go to England this month in a strictly private capacity, as a guest of the English Bar, much political significance has been attached to his visit, which will coincide with the appearance of the Allied leaders in London for the Premiers' Conference.
