EXECUTION OF MR PETROV
BULGARIA REPLIES TO British note
(B«c. 12.15 a.m.) SOFIA, Oct. 3. The Bulgarian Government has sent a Note to Britain rejecting as “a contradiction of all the principles of ifitefnrttional law” the British protest last week on the execution of Mr Petkov. leader of the Peasant Party. The Note declared that the Bulgarian Government could not recognise the right of any State to interfere in matters of Bulgarian law. It was not in the interest of an understanding between the two countries that Britain should' depict the Bulgarian Government as the dictatorship of a minority. The Note expressed regret and astonishment that Britain had chosen the moment of signing the peace treaty to attribute to the Bulgarian Government aims and intentions.”
