THE HAIG STATUE

Unlikely To Be Set Up For Two Years

London, Jan. 24). The Earl Haig memorial statue cannot now be set up for close on another two years. Begun in 1929, promised for 1933, and again for this year, it is now improbable that the unveiling ceremony can take place before the latter part of next year.
