LORD MARLEY

AGITATING

For Release Of` Noulens

London, Jan. 13.

In a letter to the "Manchester Guardian" Lord Marley, the La- bour Peer, who headed the Anti- War League, whose proposed meet- Shanghai ings were banned in and Japan, invites signatures for a petition to the Chinese Govern- ment for the release of Mr. and Mrs. Rueggs alias Mr. Paul and

irs. Gertrude Noulens.

The letter states that they were imprisoned "for Trade Union ac- tivities."

"It was felt that the offence in no way justified such a savage sen- tence, and the circumstances of the trial cast doubts on the impartia lity of the administration of jus- tice," the letter declares.-Reuter..
