theWafd or nationalist party, sup
porting Nahas Pasha, former pre-
mier against King Fuad, is stirring
up revolt. The first outbreak was
in Alexandria, where fanatical

riot, attacking Europeans and loot

and police had regained contro! OF
the situation 13 civilians, all Egg
ptians, had been killed, and at least
60 were wounded by gunshot. And
about 160 others, including 30 po-
lice, were injured in other ways.
The British battleships, Queen
Elizabeth and Families were huc-
ried to Alexandria.
Latest developments in the In
dian affair indicated that Mahatma
Ghandi, head of the passive re-
sistance revolt, would be released
from prison and invited to partici-
pate in the London round table
conference that is to open October
20. AS a preliminary, Ghandi is ex-
pected to call off the civil dis
obedience campaign.
1t is also reported in London
that thru Prime Minister Mac

The reichstag had refused to APP

GERMANY'S reply to the mem
orandum of French Foreign
Minister BRAND proposing Euro
pean federation indicates gener-
al acceptance of the plan, though
it has almost as many reservations
as the Italian reply. The Germans,
like the Italians and some others,
insist that Russia and Turkey be
included in the union, and they
make it clear the federation should
in no way be directed against the
United States. They subtly suggest
a revision of the war treaties, but
say little of disarmament. The
German reply agrees heartily with
BRAND on the necessity of subor-
dinating economic to political as
pects-a view which may prove to
be the fatal weakness Of the whole
scheme.
A purely tentative" reply from
Great Britain was not so encour-
aging, expressing the opinion that
the proposed union is unnecessary
and possibly a dangerous institu-
tion." It suggested that the plan
be placed on the agenda of the next
assembly of the League Of Ma
tions.
Greece, Austria, and Poland aslo
have accepted the BRAND plan, and
Russia seems to be fishing for an
invitation.

"Richelieu" is fine, majestic

who strangely enough played

Players this week essay a light,
almost farcical. comedy, Jerry"
which one. time served as q
vehicle for Billie Burke.
A trivial, frothy play, in hands
less capable, than this troupe, it
would prove inane. AS it was,
last nights audience seemed to
relish to high degree the acting
and the farcical situations.
The cast is small. Marion

quiring her presence upon the
stage nearly all of the time. She
plays the vivaciouS, extremely

She is figuring that it is about
time that something were done
about it, especially as the neigh

Wade has managed to postpone
the wedding. on one pretext or
another, year after year. Jerry"
now steps into the picture and
decides to grab off the handsome
bachelor for herself. The lengths
to which she goes-and what
lengthS-to accomplish her pur-
pose make up the plot.
Romaine Calender is cast as a
dull-witted Englishman, with a
monocle and an accent, who is
striving to help Jerry accomplish
her purpose in order that he may
win the aunt, whom he has been
wooing these 20 years. Adelaide
Hibbard has a part to her liking
as the mother of the irrepreSSible
Jerry. Edward Poland contrib
utes a nice bit as the butler. A
boudoir scene between him and
Jerry is one of the most enjoyable
episodes of the play.
