Among those killed are four foreigners, an Italian engineer, his wife and daughter and a Greek.

The accident was due to faulty working of the points.

The disaster occurred in the middle of the night, and the railway officials on duty at Resca, the scene of the disaster, were unable to afford help, which was only forth- coming when a passenger, who was a telegraphist, sent a message to the neighbouring stations.

Inquiry has established that the collision was due to the error of a signalman, who disappeared after the accident.

TENTH ANNIVERSARY HELD AT ALBERT HALL

· MR. BALDWIN'S SPEECH

London, Saturday. The tenth anniversary of the League of Nations Union, which has now 2,710 branches and 728,664 members, was colebrated in the Albert Hall at a meeting over which Viscount Grey of Fallodon presided.

The principal speakor was Mr. Baldwin, the Prime Minister, who reviewed the numerous achieve ments of the League and said that statesmen who made. Insinuations. against the bona fides of a foreign country sngaged on pacificatory work for the sake of obtaining cheers and newspapers which printed such paragraphs in order to make news, were doing the devil's,

work.

He profoundly regretted Ameri- ca's deep suspicion of Britain and the latter's actions. "We have no intention of bullding is competition) with the United States. We built slow long before the Kellogg Pact." -Reuter,
