SENSATION
Austrian Nazi Chief Arrested
Vienna, Dec. 5
A sensation has been caused by the issue of a warrant for the arrest of Herr Frauenfeld, the chief of the Austrian Nasi Party.
It is learned that he has been taken into custody and "that He is likely to appear on trial: on charge of high. treason.
The step is believed to have been prompted by the discovery earlier to-day of a man who was dis- tributing pamphlets signed by Frauenfeld, which, it is alleged. contained an incitement to the people of Australia to overthrow the Dollfuss Government, aleb
The distributor was arrested and that of Herr Frauenfeld followed a few hours later. Reuter,

THE INFLUENCE OF CHEQUERS
I fancy that great many people must have had the wish to put the question which Lord Riddell, in his delightful new "Diary," says that he once put to Mr. Lloyd George.
It was whether he would occupy a lovely old mansion-house - Xke Chequers if he were a Labour

ON MILLIONAIRES..
Mr. Lloyd George, the "Diary" shows, treasures recollections of his famous Limehouse speech as "perhaps the best speech he had ever made." Yet he seems to have a kindly word` sometimes for the Leverhulmes and the Ellermans.
Lord Riddell's own attitude to the difficult problem of the ex- treme disproportion in the dis- tribution of wealth
is that "Things are as they are, and the world is not governed by logic or justice."
But It is not a little amusing to note that while he records "I am, not fond of millionaires." the very next entry in the
