The Commission of Inquiry has for- warded the report of its investiga- tions into the actions of Prince An- drew during the campaign to the Revolutionary Committee, which, in conjunction with the Greek Govern- merit, will make arrangements for his trlah The following official statement has been issued. "General. Dousmanis, former Chief 'et the General Staff, and General Valettas, former Chief of Staff in Asia Minor, have been arrested, and a warrant has been iseuetl for the arrest of General Papaides, former commander -in' -Chief of the army Asia Minor; "The trial of Prince Andrew (bre- alter pf former Kieg Oonstautina), who commanded an army earl's at the time cf the Sakaria operations, begins next week." A despatch from London says"—, The British are much disturbed, over the further Greek arrests, indi- cating that the Greeks are still un• repentant for their barbarous execu-: tion recently of former Ministers, and the British are particularly worried: by news that Prince Andrew is to be tried in a few days. Answering Mr, Hardie, a Labor man, in the House of Commons on; Thursday, Prime Minister Bonar Law said the British Government had urg-I ed the Greek Government not to per -i mit the executions, and warned that; if this step was taken, Great Britain would withdraw its representative. Int taking this action the British Govern ment was actuated by the general con-; in sideration that It was contrary to the; practice of civilized nations to put to' death Ministers who had fallen on a*. count of the failure of their policy.

Thursday, ex- pressed the hope that it would found convenient for all concerned to hold a meeting next year. He said invitations had not yet been issued. Re- garding the time of the gather- ing, he felt that the date must depend partly on whether it is decided to hold an Imperial economic conference distinct from and before the regular Imperial conference.

Thursday. So far, eight prieeners have been executed at the order of the military court. There was a dramatic scene in Par llament on Thursday night over the death of the youths, who were Joseph, Spooner, Patrick Farrelly and John Murphy. First, Labor and Independ- ent deputies rose and criticized the secrecy of the military courts. They demanded publicity for the trials. Defence Minister Mulcahy, in ons -a wer, recited the circumstances of the' arrests. The young seen swet•e r esi- ` dents of the workers' district in the city.

Constantine's Entourage Pre- diets Murder of Venizelos as Reprisal. A despatch from Palermo says:— Former King Constantine and his family have beenplunged into deepest grief by the tragedy of the six exe-, eutions at Athens. They were not only the fernier King's friends, but in a sense the victims of his policy, 1 Constantine's entourage here fore -I sees the eventual assassination of Venizelos as a reprisal for the deaths, The five Ministers, and one general; executed, belonged to old Grecian families with clannish connections,' and these, according to members of Constantine's suite, will ahnost cer- tainly attempt to avenge the deaths, and the material ruin caused by the confiscation of the fortunes and lands of the men executed. The position of Prime Andrew of Greece is also a matter of concern among the royal exiles here. An ap- peal has been made to the British court for intervention on his behalf. Constantine is now negotiating the purchase of a hone near Backestow, Denmark, and will probably take up permanent residence there. Forty-two thousand new auto lic- ense plates for the Province of Al.. berta have been ordered for 1923. There will be made with white figures on a blue back ground.

The comet is described as faint. The position given was in the constellation rf' Crater. Telescopic photographs taken at Harvard after the re eine of the cablegram show the comet to be brighter than Baade s comet, which was recently discovered, and to be moving More rapidly. It is going south-east at a rate of between three and four diameters of the moon a day. The outstanding feature of the metal production of Canada during the first six months of the present year was the excellent gain made in gold output by the two important pro- ducing provinces, Ontario and British Columbia, amounting to an increase of some 42 per cent. over the first six months of 1921. The higher prevail- ing prices and more active markets for silver and lead have been reflected in gains in production in these metals. aa a Rhodes Scholar It is unofficially a:aircuiteed '4Vin!sp�ear, of Calgary, who is wrtla year in arts at Uni- versity, llas been. �iel�eC.ted as hade� ��:.b�Iar for Ontario for ear.
