About 30 years ago Japan "start- ed to cultivate pearls by injecting foreign matter into the oyster shells and when the first shipment came to Paris, scientists were pusz- led whether to classify them as genuine or artificial, for it was im- possible to tell which was which, unless the pearl was cut in two, and half pearls were not of much use. After the war the first ship- ment of round cultured pearla ar- rived in London at Hatton Garden, the biggest jewellery market in the world and they were at a loss to distinguish the cultured pearl from the natural, as the cultured peari had the same weight, the "same" lustre" and the same substance as the deep water pearl. The Pearl Market fell in price, the cultured pearl cost only the 10th part of the Indian pearl and, (people ask- ed) why pay 10 times the price for an article which nobody can dis- tinguish from the other. It takes about eight years of patience and great care to develop a Cultured
Pearl.

The well-known Bucharest Anan- cler and novelist, Leopold Stern, intended speaking on Friday on "sex appeal," but the students had organised a great protest and in- terrupted the lecture by "catcalls " and cries of “shame” while they also threw rotten eggs. After breaking up the meeting, the students marched through the principal streets singing national airs, and smashing all the windows of the fashionable Cafe Royal. They next began a demonstration outside the editorial offices of the sensationalist paper "Credinta," when the police arrived and dis- persed them with truncheons- Transocean Kuo Min.
