CASE OF SAVARKAR.
GERMAN PAPER ANNOYED. PROUD FRANCE'S SUBSERVIENCE TO ENGLAND. By Telegraph.— Press Association.— Copjright. j (Received February 28, 9 a.m.) BERLIN, 27th February. The Post, in a violent article, denounces what it describee as the naivete and folly of The Hague tribunal over its j finding in the Savarkar case. The paper declares that the French police, by transferring Savarkar to the. j eteamer Mor-ea without even, the appearance of formal proceedings, were guilty of a or ass breach of international law. "This ehowe." adds The Post, "how far subservience to England has brought I proud France. The verdict ehould act as a douche to German enthusiasts for j arbitration." [The Court held that Great Britain, was not bound to surrender Savarkar to France. There was no rule in international law compelling a Power once in possession of a prisoner to surrender him owing to a foreign agent's mistake in i arresting him. Sava-rkar, an Indian student, who was extradited from England on charges of sedition, escaped at | Marseilles while being conveyed to In- ] dia, but was recaptured by French of- , ficialfi.] j
