A STRANGE CONTRAST
WOMEN AT DEMONSTRATION LONDON, October 27(Received Oct. 28, at 5.5 p.m.) Two women made a strange contrast in a mass demonstration in Hyde Park against Nazi ism. One, Mrs Despard, sister of the late Lord Ypres, a 91-year-old Irish suffragist, denounced German cruelties and persecutions, while the other, 25-year-old Mrs Diana Guinness, the anti-Jewish Hitler-Avorshipping daughter of Lord Redesdalc, recorded a lone vote. in opposition to resolutions in favour of the suspension of business relations with Germany and deploring the Nazi physical torture of men and women. Elaborate police precautions proved unnecessary, as the crowd of tens of thousands was quiet and good-humoured. The speakers included Major Attlee and Lord Marley.
