REGENCY MEASURE

KING'S REQUEST
NO BEARING ON SUCCESSION
London, Jan. 20,
The institution of a permanent regency in Great Britain was forecast at the end of question-time in the House of Commons to-day by Mr. Stanley Baldwin, the Prime Minister, who read a message from His Majesty the King. The King's message de clared that his late father and pre- decessor on the throne, since his ill ness in 1928, had intended to request Parliament to deal with the incon- veniesen likely to result from the absence of sintutory provision to deal with the incapacity of a sovereign, the accession of a sovereign during his or her infancy or the absence of
n sovereign abroad.
His Majesty therefore recommend ed consideration of a measure making
permanent provision to secure that purpose.
Mr. Baldwin moved the Address in reply to the Speech from the Throne, which was carried unanimously, and
of imple- proclaimed his intention menting the royal recommendations. A bill was thereupon introduced,
"Seconding the Regency Bill, Sir John Simon, the Home Secretary, said it was understood in Government circles that the measure was purely domestle, and did not necessitate com-

Facing Trial THE ROUGH RIDERS RIDE
GERMANS LINKED WITH
SABOTAGE IN RUSSIA
Moscow, Jan. 26.
Another old Bolshevik leader, Belobordoff, who ordered the execution of the Czar's family, has been arrested in connection with the alleged pro-Trotsky plot for which a number of one-time leaders are now arraigned. Like them, he faces the death penalty if he is found guilty.
Sensational evidence was given at the trial to-day by a German engineer, Alexander Stein, who has been employed as a specialist at the Kusbass coal mines.
He declared that other German engineers had tried to enlist his aid in wrecking and spying. They had appealed to his patriotism, he said, urging? "You are here to work for Germany, not to help the Bolsheviks."
