The demonstration was led by Viscountess Rhonda, who described the meeting as "the last great suffragette demonstration that will ever be held." Paris, July 18. -- French coal con- sumers are protesting against the high price of coal and what they call the government's protection of the coal industry's "excessive profits." On a gold basis, say the objectors, coal should be five times pre-war pric- es, since this represents the deprecia- tion of the franc. Coal, however, costs more than seven times the cost in 1913. Recent decrees barred the importa- tion of foreign coals, with few excep~ tions. Trade journals say this protec- tion is not justified ond that prices are almost fifty per cent too high. They demand the admission of foreign coal to put prices on a world basis.

M. Reid- Miller, at the last election in his division of Shettleston, Glasgow, and against Alexander B. Anderson, the publisher of a newspaper circu- Plating in a Glasgow suburb. "Moneylbnder" It arose out of a challenge issued by Mr., Wheatley for £1,000, and published in a newspaper owned hy Mr. Wheatley, in which it was suggested that his political oppon- ents were spreading the following stories about him, "Heo is a professional moneylend- er and puts people into court in hundreds to extort from them ex- horbitant interekt...... "His wealth has, in one way or another, been invested in the liguor trade... "He is alleged to he the hidden hand behin da flourishing bookmak- er's business." the challenge, "to give n reward of £1,000 to any person Or persons who ean prove that there is a parti- cle of truth in all or any of these objectionable charges." Renewed Attack Mr, Reid-Miller docided to take up the challenge, He wrote to Mr. Anderson a letter for publication in Mr. Anderson's paper, attacking the Socfalist leader. It is this new letter which gave rise to the libel action. Mr. Wheat- ley objected to the suggestions that he was worth a considerable sum of money, and was therghy a capi- talist; that he had once made a composition with his creditors; and that he should be asked to give an account of his transactions "in con- cert with a well-known publican and brewers' agent." Mr. Wheatley found seven is- sues in the letter on which to sue for damiges. Lord Murray, the Scottish judge who heard his ap- plication, disallowed five of the issues. It is the remaining two that are to be before a jury at Edinburgh next month, when a AT LOCAL THEATRES AT THE NEW MARTIN The coming to the New Martin Theatre today of the Universal-Film de France picturization of Jules Verne's famous old melodrama, "Michael Strogoff," will undoubted- ly awaken the fondest of memories among the men and women of Oshawa who witnessed it as a stage play in years gone by. Dramatized fifty years ago by the author, Jules Verne, and Adolphe D'Ennery, it became popular in all parts of the world where there was a theatre, or even a town hall. In our own country its popularity is said to have been exceeded only by the perennial "Uncle Tom's Cab- in." The hero Michael Strogoff, the Courier of the Czar, was a her- oic part indeed and one well calcu- lated to win the the lasting affec- tion and remain fixed in the mem- ory of the audiences. This, the first filming of the popular book and play will surely appeal to its old admirers, as it is presented .on a scale impossible to the limita- tions of the stage, and which dwarfs even the famous Kiralty spectacles, in their day the pin- nacle of theatrical splendor. Ivan Moskine, a European screen idol, has the title role. SOCIALISTS OBJECT TO ROYAL INSIGNIA Berlin, July 18. -- Former Emperor William II has again stirred the soci- alists. They have introduced an inter- pellation in the Prussian diet charging him with "an abusive usurpation of former royal insignia of rank." The cause of the trouble lies in an ordinance by the president of the for- mer royal board of the Prussian ex- chequer. Claiming to act on behalf of the former king of Prussia, the pre- sident ordered all head foresters sub- ordinate to him to continue wearing the same uniforms as during the im- perial regime. He especially enjoined them to retain the old royal Prussian eagle on their equipment and the royal coat of arms on their buttons. The socialists point out that the ex- | kaiser, by his abdication, has ceased | to be king of Prussia and is mow a| private person. Among other things, | they contend the ordinance conflicts | with the country and forest policing | law of 1926, which prescribes the kind | of umiforius to be worn by foresters.
