Holland Refuses to
Give Up Prof. VreeZe

The Hague, Oct. 15-(By Associat-
ed ress).-Holland, which refused
to surrender the former German En-
peror to the Allies for trial, has an
other knotty problem in a demand
from the Belgian government for the
extradition of Professor de Vreeze.
sity. political refugee and now Ii
brarian at Rotterdam.
Professor de Vreeze is one Of the
7 Flemish Belgians who during the
German occupation of their country
sought, with German aid, to separate
Flanders, the Dutch speaking part of
Belgium, from the French speaking
part. Many of them, when the arm
istice showed Germany beaten, fled to
Holland. In their absence, they were
convicted Of treason and some OF
them are under sentence of death.
Professor de Vreeze is accused as a
leading "activist" in the Flemish
separation movement. Considering
this a political offense and therefore
not extraditable, the Dutch govern
ment would not give him up.
Now, at a time when relations be-
tween Holland and Belgium are
strained because of commercial
treaty complications and the renewed
efforts of Belgian Flemish activists
toward the separatist movement, Bel
GUM has demanded the extradition
of De Vreeze. this time on grounds,
which, If proved. Holland might con-

political offense.
The charge. however. is only that
Professor De Vreeze used for fuel at
his house in Client some government

books and some coal which were on

sor across the frontier.

ADJUSTMENTS
DRAMATIC SPICE
FEATURES GREAT
IBLACKTON PLAY

Nothing that has ever been given
at the Colonial theatre has had the
dramatic spice and the flavor of ro-
nance that course through the
BIackton production Respectable by
Proxy" which will be seen at the cozy
playhouse today. The Pathe motion
picture play features Robert Gordon
and Sylvia Braemer, a sufficient
guarantee of the calibre of the piece
right at the start.
Respectable by Proxy" is an en-
tertainment which even prim debut
tantes and devilish youths may at
tend and not feel as if they had put
one over on Anthony Comstock. 1t
is sheer romance with tabaSco sauce
to give it wholesome flavor. Ev-
erybody is apparently interested in
show girls and their reputed willy
tricks.
This drama paints them with an
accurate brush and brings in a
unique situation in which a strong
headed young blade from an aristo-
cratic family marries show girl.
separates from her and comes back
home to find another girl masquerad-
ing as his wife. The story is too good
to tell in detail but Manager Appleby
of the Colonial recommends "Respec-
table by Proxy" as distinctive enter
tainment with piauant pep to give it
verve. but not too much Ito put it in
the So called sex drama class. 1t is
entertainment well produced and we'll
acted. tHa
