Lord Derby, in a letter to the Mayor of Bootle, says that he realised heavy death duties would be payable at his death, so he reluctantly decided it was advisable to sell during his lifetime, rather than there should be a forced sale after his death.

Several hotel proprietors declined to accommodate tho party fearing anti-Bolshevik demonstrations. The party includes several women, smartly dressed. It might be supposed fiom M. Litvinoff ’s statements that the world never heard of the question of disarmament before, or the question of disarmament before, or the PolishLithuanian dispute. All the statesmen of the world need is to listen to Moscow, who will cure all ills.
