ARRESTS OVER ANATOLIAN WAR
Continue Trial of Officials Charged With Defeat of Hellenic
Armies by Kemalist Forces—Prince Andrew to be
Court-Martialed
A despatch from Athens says:---
Inquiry into; the responsibility for the
Anatolian disaster continues, and the
erreet of General Papoulas and other
officials was due to new evidence said
to have been found.
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.

A. despatch from London
says the smatter of an
Imperial conference, Premier
Bonar Law, in the House of
Commons on. 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.

A. despatch from Dutkelin says:—
Three young men faced firing squads
on. 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.

arrests. The young seen swet•e r esi- `

A despatch from Palermo says:—

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.

.Skjelleruh 's Comet
Picked up by Camera
A al,.)l.atth from FCarilbr:dge, Mass.,
says: --The Harvard Observatory has
received :vurd by enable of the diseov-
fey c,f a et'iuet 1:.,y Skiollerup, the
South American astronomer.. at Cape
Town, on N.veuiber 26. 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.
