EFFIGY IN RIGGING
LORD BEAVERBROOK ACTION BY LEGIONARIES LONDON. Oct. 17 On the homeward journey of a section of the British Legion which had been mobilised to proceed to Czechoslovakia, an effigy intended to represent Lord Beaver brook, proprietor of the Daily Express and the Evening Standard, was hoisted on the rigging of the liner Naldera, on board which the members of the Legion were accommodated, says Revnold's News. This action was taken because the members of the Legion resented the advice of his papers to disband the Legion, and "let the Czechs settlo their own affairs."
