Scandinavians Fail To Rise To Hitler Bait

Stockholm, To-day.

Failure of the German initiative in the Northern European appears to be indicated by such in- formation as has emerged from the Four- Power Conference here. Main object of the conference, it is officially de- clared, as to determine on joint policy, and to decide whether entering into any pact would be incompatible with a policy of strict neutra- lity.

WEDDING AT ST. TERESA'S

.

At the moment, it seems likely that Norway, Sweden, Denmark and Finland will decline to enter into any contractual relations with Germany.

In this connection it is stressed that public opinion in the northern countries is absolutely unanimous in refusing to contemplate the pos- sibility of any of them ever taking part in an attack on any nation.

FINCHER-GITTINS WEDDING AT ST. ANDREW'S

TWO WELL-KNOWN HONG KONG FAMILIES WERE UNITED BY THE WEDDING THIS AFTER- NOON OF MISS IRENE ELEANOR GITTINS, AND MR. ERNEST FRANCIS FINCHER.

The marriage took place at the St. Andrew's Chuch, and the bride was attended by Miss Molly Churn and Miss Marjorie Fisher as bridesmaida and Miss Sheila Hall, as flower girl.

The bride who was attired in a gown of white organdie and lace, was given away by her father.

Mr. Liddon Cole was best man. A reception was held at the St. Andrew's Church Hall.

Part of the honeymoon is being spent at Repulse Bay and the happy couple are leaving for a round the world trip on Friday.

Two men, Chiu Tak, 39, and Liu Yuen, 25, were charged with arm- ed robbery in a dwelling at No. 37 Lion Rock Road on Monday, with other men not in custody.

It was alleged that they robbed Li San of $490 in local currency, $447 in Chinese currency, and a great deal of Jewellery, the total value of which is not known.
