The prevailing tension between Turkey and Persia is believed to be responsible for the sudden recalling of the Turkish Ambassador at Teheran and his replacement by the prosent Minister to Sofia. Reports from the frontier indicate that the trouble there is far from being over as further Kurdish clans are cross- ing the border from Persia zo at- tack the Turkish troops in theerve, has gone second officer, Liang- Aank..

Press telegrams from Aix-les- Bains state that the former Khedive Abbas Hilmi has decided to leave there for Egypt in order to make a bid for the Egyptian throne. Only a few days previously the former Khedive declared in an in- terview given to a French paper that although for the time being he was merely a spectator he would not refuse to fulfil his duty should Egypt call upon him.

The German Government list week tendered a luncheon in honour of the Siamese Prince Damrong and his two daughters, Poon and Pilni, who left. Berlin after a fortnight's sojourn, during which they inspect- ed the capital and especially its museums thoroughly. After a three- days stay in Hamburg the party will go to the Hague as guests of Queen Wilhelmina, after which they depart homewards via Switzerland.

The Norwegian Government is said to he contemplating' calling an international conference to settle the problem of the rights to certain Arctic islands. This arises from the recent Soviet-Norwegian cident in a bay of Franz Joseph's Land, whore the commander of a Soviet fishery cruiser ordered a Norwegian vessel to leave the bay after the captain and the crew had signed a statement acknowledging Soviet authority over the island.

A great sensation was caused amongst German political circles by an article published in the Berliner Tageblatt by the form er Jadge, President of one of the Departments of the Reich Supreme Court and State Secretary, Herr 4. W. Freymuth, who asserts that the Taxation Ordinances enacted a few days ago by the Reichs Government under Artide 48 of the Constitution

after they had been rejected by the Reichstag, are illegal and void. Some papers, therefore, suggest that

test-case should be made by some taxpayers refusing to pay and carrying the matter to the Supreme Court for interpretation. It iB,. however, expected that the Govern ment will take up the question and. will issue a statement after con- sultation with its legal experts.

SOVIET STEAMERS KEPT IN PORT..

80 SHIPS HELD UP AT ARCHANGEL.

Moscow, July 30-On receipt of the news from New York saying that certain steamers carrying wood pulp from Archangel had been refused permission to enter United States ports and to un- load their cargo, the Soviet Gov. ernment immediately sent wireless messages to all ships bound for America with cargoes from the Soviet Union ordering them to run into the next European port and

there to await further orders.

Eighty steamers are also being held up at Archangel. The au thorities state that they will dis- pose of the timber and pulp in other countries and will sue for damages which, it is pointed out; accrue not only to Soviet trade but also to the foreign shipping com- panics whose ships carry timber or pulp from Soviet Russia.
