SUFFRAGETTE METHODS
WOMEN SURROUND' MINISTERS THE POLICE INTERVENE i (United Press Association.) (By Electric Telegraph—Copyright.) LONDON, June 21. (Received June 21, at 7 p.m.) Britain is threatened with a new movement on suffragette lines. A body of militant women championing the rights of Englishwomen married to aliens followed the Secretary of State for the Dominions (Mr J. H. Thomas) to Buckingham Palace, where he was going to attend the Royal banquet to King Feisal of Iraq. They failed to interview him, but left a letter. Later in the evening they surged round the Prime Minister (Mr MacDonald) and Mr Thomas when they alighted at the reception at, Londonderry House to members of the World Conference. The women talked excitedly, but neither Minister replied. The police intervened.
