MONTE CARLO’S DECLINE
CASINO’S REVENUE FALLS HEAVILY POPULARITY CHALLENGED (Australian and N.Z. Press Association) Reed. 11 a.m. PARIS, Wednesday. Famous Monte Carlo is definitely on the decline. Its popularity is challenged by San Reno, Cannes and Nice, which are attracting a greater number each year. The management of the casino reported a net income of 80,000,000 francs, compared with 91,000,000 francs last year, and 95,000,000 francs in 1927. Normal conditions have been restored in Monaco. Prince Louis promised a meeting of the townspeople’s representatives that elections would be held before the end of May and that a constitution, dividing the. lands between the Prince and the people, would be examined with a view to its adoption. The Prince also undertook that all vacant posts would be given to natives of Monaco; that gas supplies would be improved; and that a commission would be formed to confer with him on municipal affairs.
