RUSSIA ENGAGES
in RADIO STRIFE
Trade War Over Ether Waves
With RuInania

Bucharest, Nov. 10. R--A radio
war, to all intents and purposes, is
in progress between Russia and
Rumania.
The offensive was taken, accord
ing to Rumanian officials, by the
broadcasting stations of Moscow,
Odessa and other cities near the
frontier of Bessarahia, the annexa-
ton of which by Rumania the So
vites have never recognized.
They are accused of attempting
to lecture Rumanian listeners on
the deficiencies of their government
and of trying to broadcast revolu-
tionary propaganda.
To prevent this the Rumanian
government has taken such meas
ures as greatly to retard the devel-
opment of radio in its own country.
The radio is a Rumanian state
monopoly and the importation of all
foreign apparatus is prohibited. For
the security of the state" no radio
receiving sets are allowed near
frontiers and to install set any
where in the country, one must Sc
cure a special permit.
When the Rumanian owner OF a
permit has succeeded in turning in
the opera at Vienna, Rome or Paris,
he is almost certain to receive a bar
rage of propaganda from Russia. At
the first word from Moscow, the Ru-
manian military stations cut loose
with a counter attack, which makes
it impossible to hear anything.

INSISTS DUKES
MARRIAGE VALID
Bishop Of Church Of England
Regrets Occurrence

London, Nov. l9.-tP-The an
nulment of the marriage Of the
Duke and Duchess of Marlborough
continues under discussion here In
the Church OF England circles. The
action Of the authorities of the
Catholic church IN granting the
plea OF Consuelo, former duchess,
for notification is regretted as be-
ing inimical to the sanctity OF the
marriage tie.
The Right Rev. DR.. z. A. Bur-
roughs. bishop of Ripon, in an ad-
dress to the national assembly of
the Church Of England. said he con-
sidered it an insult ito the old COM
munion to which we are proud to
belong"
although the question to which
7 refer will not receive official notice
by this assembly," said the prelate,
Il think 1t not unfit to make pass
ing restrained allusion to an Incl
dent which is calculated to deal a
further blow to the stability of
Christian marriages and Is an in
suit, whether calculated or other
wise, to the old communion to
which we are proud to belong"
The assembly cheered the utter
ance of the bishop, but nothing fur
Their was said on the subject.
The Church Times, representing
the right wing of the Church of
England which is endeavoring to
effect union between the Anglican
and Catholic churches. comments as
follows on the annulment:
Assuming the marriage was eff
fected by duress of one party, it
cannot be denied it is invalid On
this point, however the protests Of
the bishop of the diocese in which
the ceremony is performed must be
considered.
In any case, the parties had lived
together many years, children had
been born, and to reopen the case
so many years afterward seems
hardly equitable. We deeply regret
that the decree of annulment was
made. We feel it has done much to
