‘BELGIAN HITLER CURBS FOLLOWERS Calls. Off Demonstration When Coriflict With Troops Threatens. By the Associated Press. BRUSSELS, October 24.—Leon De- grelle, sometimes called the “Belgian Hitler,” tonight called off tomorrow’s demonstration by his followers, which had threatened open conflict with gendarmes and the military. Fron his hideout Degrelle ordered, Instead, that nine separate meetings of his Rexist party following be held November 1, one in each of the prin- cipal cities of the nine provinces. Degrelle is in hiding because he believes the government seeks his ar- rest. Belgian troops stayed in barracks, however, ready for action if any vio- lence should occur during tomorrow's parade of war veterans. The parade was to commemorate the world victory of Yser, and the govern- ment made strenuous efforts to make sure the Rexists would be unable to Join in the march. In addition to the troops, all avail- able gendarmes were rushed to the city from the provinces. The march it- self was limited to a 1-mile stretch from the King's palace to the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. Veterans were to be permitted to assemble in the park opposite the pal- ace only after presenting adequate identification. ELLSWORTH GETS MEDAL Geographic Society of Chicago Honors Antarctic Flyer.

Priest Arranges Show Depicting Communist At- titude on Religion. EY the Associated Press. ROME, October 24.—An American Jesuit priest, Father Joseph Ledit, of Gonzaga University, Spokane, Wash., has just inaugurated here the most amazing exhibition modern Rome ever has seen. An unwarned visitor would say on going through the exposition that it was the most complete: Communist exposition outside of Soviet Russia. It shows the development of communism throughout the world, including the United States. 5 The walls are draped in red. They are ornamented with hundreds of the Communist symbols and carry por- traits of Lenin and Stalin. At the entrance to the exposition is a rostrum, with a life-size cut-out painting of Lenin, in an oratorical pose, behind it. Below it, in large let- ters, are Lenin’s words: “Every re- ligious idea, all conception of a good God, is an inexpressible abomination.” The exposition halls are filled with tables and stands on which are literally thousands of publications, newspapers, magazines, pamphlets and books. The walls carry paintings and lithographs. But it is not a Communist exposi- tion. It is, in fact, an anti-Communist one. the review, “Rome Letters on Modern Atheism,” assembled it to show a class of educated persons, mostly clergy, the spread of communism. A special permit is required to visit the exposition. There is a special hall for the United States, another for England, another for France, another | for Germany. South American coun- | tries, particularly Uruguay and Chile, are in another room. | papers to pamphlets. ginning with the children.

WOMAN DIES Lost 100 During Last Tllness. Special Casket Used. CHICAGO, October 24 (#).—Funeral services for Mrs. Alice Glynn Dudley, 49, billed in circus life as “Babe Alice —Oldest Fat Girl in the World,” were held here today. Mrs. Dudley weighed 640 pounds until she lost 100 of them during her illness. A heart ailment aggravated by a thyroid condition caused her death yesterday at Fort Worth, Tex. The body was brought here in a special casket. Pumphrey informed him that the minimum fine for his offense would be $101.70. That sum, he avers, was paid to Pumphrey. Case Settled by Forfeiture. The court record, however, shows that the case was settled with for- feiture of $11.70 collateral on a charge | of exceeding 45 miles per hour, not 60 miles per hour. Iannucci averred | he never appeared in court. ‘The $140 asked by Ianuncci repre- sents the difference between his claimed payments, excluding court costs, and the collateral. Since the investigation was opened by the grand jury, some 150 Wash- ington motorists have complained to Keystone of “irregularities” follow- ing arrest for traffic violations. Forty | affidavits have been obtained, while Keystone attorneys expect to get at least 60 statements within the next three weeks. Most of the complainants have agreed to go before the jury. The jury is expected to recess early next week for a recall within a month, (when complete study of evidence ‘.should be finished. i TERMITES re so secretive in their damage may be serious b detected.
