Woass OF REFERENOE.—Dod's Parliamentary Companion for 1920 (Sir Isaac Pitman

and Sons, 6s. net), in its ninety-sixth edition, is as accurate and indispensable as ever. The new matter includes some account of the League of Nations.

Debrett's House of Commons and the Judicial Bench, 1920, edited by A. G. M. Hesilrige (Dean, 21s. net), is another invaluable book dealing more fully with the same theme.—The Catholic Directory, 1920 (Burns and Oates, 2s. 6d. net) is an exhaustive account of Roman Catholic activity in Great Britain. The section on the Roman Catholic population of the British Empire estimates the total for Great Britain as about two and a half millions, the total for Canada as 2,800,000, and the total for Australia as 996,000.—The British Dominions Year Book, 1920, edited by E. Salmon and J. Worsfold (Eagle, Star, and British Dominions Insurance Company), contains some in- structive articles by Lord Milner, Mr. Clynes, and others on current topics, and a series of ingenious coloured maps illus- trating the Peace Treaties.
