THE LOCH NESS MONSTER HAS AGAIN GAINED A PLACE OF HIGH HONOUR IN THE FRONT PAGES OF THE LONDON NEWSPAPERS IN CONSEQUENCE OF A STATEMENT ISSUED BY SIR EDWARD MOUNTAIN, CLAIMING THAT THE MONSTER HAS BEEN SEEN TWENTY-ONE TIMES WITHIN FOUR WEEKS.

Scores of people are again flocking to Loch Ness in

the hope of gaining a glimpse of the mysterious in-

habitant, of which no-one has yet been able to obtain a close view.

Rumours that Dr. Gustav von Kahr, the former Premier of Bavaria, who was responsible for the suppression of Herr Hitler's' famous beer-cellar putsch, was one of the victims of the Hitler "clean-up” seem to have received confirmation.

An obituary notice concerning von Kahr was inserted in the Munich newspapers to-day by von Kahr's widow, etating that the Bavarian statesman "died nudden- ly on June 30 and his nahes were buried silently."
