V-l-V. a 1 i.aa Fivun the British nation Ih th; Geddr family. Sir Eric Geddes, aV mini.-! er of w.iyst an1 communlci-! t:ors. and Sir Auckland Leddes, aspresident of the board of trade, aroj at the, head of the two forrmost elej,.irtments engaged in the great work ; of reconstruction. whiJf? their sister , ..s in command of the Woman's Roy- j ai Air fore.-, with a semi-military organization of fievral hundred un-, r her control. : The Geddes brothers como from! Scotland, which is pt to be a gua-; ranteo of success, and before the! Avar they wore almo.st unknown beyond the circles of their own prfes-j Moni. Sir Frio Geddes was a rail-j road manager, and railroad mag-j r.ate;i do not hold so large a place j in tho public eye in Kngland as theyj ri in America: smaller than a: bishop or a master of fox hounds, which last is about thft most popular pinnacle of distinction. Ono AY as I jrofesMir. Sir Auckland Geddes was professor of aratomy at McGill university in Toronto. Both of them aeknowldiro a debt to the invigorating atmosphere of the North" American continent, whero Eric first worked as a lumberman and later had his first railroad lessons on the Baltirnore and Ohio. Sir EricV first billet In the povernmont service was for the organization and management of the hundreds of miles of railroad lines behind the British army In Trance, which pulled out of something like fh.m.1 where regular staff offirr rs had left It. Then ho succeeded Arthur Balfour at the head of the admiralty, at a time when there ivprn complaints thr.t the navy was in the hands of a rather hidebound board of admirals nnd needed more ginger which It got. irntrml an Private. Fir Auckland entered public life In the uniform of a private soldier but he soon graduated to the war office to be Lord Derby's right hand man In tho direction of the Derby recruiting chemo. Step by step he became minister of national service, president of tho local government board, minister of reconstruction und finally president of tho board of trade which roughly corresponds to the department of tho Interior at Washington. Just now the two brothers have charge of tne two toughest problems of Lloyd Georgo'a administration, th reconstruction and the nationalization or otherwise, as tho issue may be decidedof tho transport ( r.d mining system of tho United Kingdom, a large order. JJttle JlcflrmMnnco. Thre Is little family resemblance between the brothers at first glance. Sir Eric !s tall and broad of tho type called massive, and looks every Inch a man of big business who 1? used to have his own way, nnd when he puts his hand to the plough, to drive a deep and straight furrow, but his pink, emooth-shaven face suggests an outdoor life more than the office. Sir Auckland nlso is tall and smooth-shaven, but he is thin, with spectacles nnd dome-lino forehead. Rr.d looks everj molecule a professor. Neither of them Ks an orator, and their parliamentary tactics display none of tho suotleties of the politician. Like Rres't Wilson, they It at their dc-ks in White, hall clad In business puits Instead of the ministerial livery of frock coat. Sir Eric reads his speeches In the hotis1 of commons and reads thorn without any flourishes of elocution, and while they are packed full of meat It is i evident that, unlike Winston Church-j hill and Austen Chamberlain; he bums no midnight oil polishing his t-entences. It Is significant of th new timethat the British government for the two most serious works of reconstruction goes outside of 'th governing class" of the old nobility and the ranks of the professional politiclans and selects a rallroal manager and a college professor both schooled in the practical lif of North America,

fierce was the struggle between the century. "With Oedenburg, too. is associated nother famous Hungarian name, that of Count Stephen Szechenyi, called by a patriot 'the greatest Magyar of them all. He was a composite hero, at once tho Paul Revere, the Uarriman and the Harry Payne Whitney of Hungary. P'or it was he v. ho rodo through enemy lines to inform B"rnadotte and Illucher of their part in the battle of Iveipsig; who introduced the first steamboats on the Danube, built bridges further to encourage transportation, nnd launched what might now bo termed a 'Greater Rudapest' movement which made that city a world capital of prestige and beauty; and who was a patron of horse racing no less than of literature and art. But his name looms largest In politics because of his determined opposition to the more radical reforms proposed by Kossuth, and Iiis subsequent espousal of a conservative policy even as a member of the Kossuth ministry.
