ROYAL DIVORCE.
Ex-Queen's Plea Granted in
Rumania.
FORMER KING OF GREECE. BUCHAREST, July 7. After a hearing which lasted only 20 minutes—the shortest in the history of the Rumanian Divorce Court—the exQueen Elizabeth was granted a divorce from ex-King George 11. of Greece on the grounds of desertion. The ex-King was not represented, and unless he appeals before July 13 the decision will be final and the ex-Queen will resume her former title of Elizabeth of Hohenzollern, Princess of Rumania.
ALL ISAACS NOT JEWS.
NAZI BELIEF REFUTED.
(Received 11 a.m.) LONDON, July 7. "AH Isaacs are Jews," say the Nazis, but Isaac Compson, of Batley, Yorkshire, who is at present in Germany, sent a message to his vicar for his baptismal certificate to prove that he was a Yorkshireman. • The vicar says that Old Testament names were common in Yorkshire 80 years ago when many went to Germany to take positions in the textile trade.
