C, FRIDAY, KING Z0G CHEATS - DEATH PLOTTERS Seven Intellectuals Sen- tenced to Die as Result of Conspiracy. By the Assoclated Press. Despite the simple life of Albania’s self-suMMcient peasants, Europe’s young- est kingdom apparently is far from shockproof. Evidence of this is seen in recent plots against King Ahmed Zog, in the face of the government’s boast it has been less affected by the world depres- sion than others. Seven Albanian intellectuals have been sentenced to death as a result of the plots, uncovered in August, when grepnrmonn were being made to cele- rate the fourth anniversary of the %g\rll}lflul Zog's coronation on Septem- The government charges these plots to outside influences. Zog, raised to the throne from the presidency by the Na- tional Assembly, had a long and storm; litical career before being crowned, ut peace had marked his tenure of the throne. Zog, Albania’s first native king, is 38 years old. He is an hereditary chief- tain, head of the Zogollis, one of the chief ruling clans. Minister of the In- terior in 1924, he resigned after an at- tempt on his life, and was elected President a year later. Most of ~ his country’s domestic troubles in recent years have arisen over land tenure, and have been feuds be- tween the clans. It has been free of religious difficulties, although its citi- zens are Mohammedans, Greek Chris- tians and Roman Catholics. Albania has no regular railroads. A few narrow-gauge military lines, laid by the Austrians and Italians during the war, have fallen into decay. Population of 330,000, As large as New Hampshire and Ver- mont combined, the country has a.pop- ulation of about 830,000, chiefly moun-+ taineers, who till small patches and have herds of sheep, goats and cattle. For centuries Albania fought Turkish domination and was battled for by its Balkan neighbors and Italy untll its independence finally was assured by its treaty with Italy in 1920, making it practically an Italian protectorate. Jugoslavia has always regarded the Italia-Albanian alllance as a threat to its peace, and the long boundary be- tween Jugoslavia and Albania has been the scene of many border clashes. EPTEMBER 23, 1932. SPAIN SHIPS LOAD OF EXILES TO AFRICA Many Friends of Former King Are Among Those Given Tearful Farewell at Pier. By the Associated Press. MADRID, September 23.—A shipload | of men who once were the finest caval- leros in all Spain steamed out in the murky dawn from Cadiz today to an African exile from which many of them may never return. ‘Two cousins of former King Alfonso and many others who were the constant companions ©of his recreations were among them. Victims of the changing times which separated their King from his throne, they crowded into the little steamer Espagna V, which takes them to Rio de Oro, that Spanish colony on the hump of Western Africa where fever is a constant menace and the only break in monotonous routine is the landing and departure of the mall plane for South America. These are the men—the Marquis Squilache, the Duke of Seville and oth- ers of like rank—who are paying for the recent monarchist uprising which flared briefly under the leadership of | Gen. Jose Sanjurojo. | As the ship pushed out from the pler, where weeping relatives waved sadly, there were and catcalls | hisses from loyal Republicans on the pier.
