(BT CABLE—PRE 39 ASSOCIATION—COPiaiGKT) (AUSTRALIAN AKD H.Z. CABLE ABROCXATIOX.) (Received November 26th, 7.40 p.m.) LONDON, November 20. British airmen and aeroplanes are going to assist King Ali to recapture Mecca. Three de Haviland aeroplanes have been sent to Arabia, and the aviators Macintosh and Wriggleaworth have gone to Jeddah. Apparently thero is not a rule to prevent British aviators taking service with a foreign Power, unless they are in the British Air Force.
