The hearing was conchided at the the Old Bailey, recently of case in which it was alleged that a seditious libel concerning the Jews had been published in a pa- per called "The Fascist." according to the London "Morning Past."

Arnold Spencer Leese, aged 57, retired veterinary surgeon, and Walter Whitehead, aged 62, a prin- ter, pleaded not guilty counts.

Leese asked the Inspector whe- ther he would agree that the arti- cle could fairly be described as a scientific, or semi-scientific, art)- cle intending to show alleged un- pleasant characteristics due to the fact that they belonged to a certain race of mankind.

Once the decision is given, a further difficulty will arise. If, as is generally anticipated, it is de-. clded that the Government of Ethiopia has ceased to exist, Red Cross officials will have to const- der what is to be done with the money still in the'r hands.

The Judge ruled that the ques- tion was irrelevant.

Leese Do you suggest that there is any hint that Jews, who are his Majesty's subjects are accused in this article of perpetrating ritual murders as described?

Inspector Kitchener-No.

CHILD MURDER

He agreed that there were cases of child murder which the police were unable to solve.

Leese Has it ever occurred to you that some of them may be cases of ritual murder by Jews?

The Judge-It, it had, he would be acting without evidence-a thing which he has no right to do, Later the Judge drew Leese's at- tention to the irrelevancy of cer- tain questions!

Leese With all respect, my dif- nculty is that, not being a lawyer, I use common sense.

"That is an answer bordering on insolence, the Judge told Leese, who replied, "It was not meant for insolence."

one recent precedent exists. It is that of the subscrip- tion raised during the Balkan War which preceded the Great War. Large sums of money were raised from British subscribers to pro- vide the belligerenta with medical services.

When the war ended a considerable balance was left.

Subscribers were circulated, and were asked their opinion as to the destination of the balance. The large majority decided that any sums which might still be left standing in thel names should be diverted to any other purpose of the Red Cross Society.

The units maintained in Abys sinia on the proceeds of the fund returned to England shortly after the collapse of organised regis- tance to the Italians, There therefore, no purpose to which the money still available may directly be devoted. Moreover, the thorities decline to recognise the Gare "Government" as an, av thority with which dealings are permissible.

The possiblity is that, after the Abyss.nian Government is held to have cerminated its legal ext9- tence, subscribers will be circu- larised. Any who claim that they are entitled to a return of a por- tion of their subscriptions will be allocated an approprate sum.
