“The whole nation was plunged info mourning for the beloved king and unanimously declared allegiance to a new monarch, Mohamed Zahir Shah, son of the slain ruler.

Succeed: To Throne
The yoiuig king, who was born in 1014, married his cousin, the daugh- ter of Sarsar Ahmad Shah Khan, at the age of 17.
The late king took the throne on October 16, 1929 succeeding Aman- ullah, who was forced to abdicate early in i929 because of opposition among certain Afghan tribes to his attempts to westernize the nation.
After Amanullohs abdication Bachan Sakao, a nsurper assumed power but was quickly overthrown by Nadir Shah.

' of the former Klng/Amonullsh, who
was his" nephew and. whom be had served as Foreign Minister. Amali- ullah fled and was exiled to Italy.
His reign was turbulent in its be- ginning. Two other men tried to usurp the throne between the time Abdullah quit and Nadir Shah as- sumed the crown.
Improved Kingdom
King Nadir Shah tried to improve
52 agricultural and commerical meth-
ods in his kingdom. He initiated the construction of a trunkline railroad and built roads and bridges.
The British Government was known to be interested in his work. Despite his royal position, King Nadir Shah had to rise to that rank from comparative obscurity. He was born Mohammed Yusuf Khan aild was educated in a villae school in the small hill station of Dehra Dun. When Abdullaii made himself king. he sent Nadir Shah, then an Emir, to France as minister. The two were‘ regarded as close friends. and when his nephew quit the throne, Nadir Shshireturned from
15' France, raised an army, and restored
the government to the family. _________.__ "Canadian Legion Masquerade

Arrive in Spain On First Hop of 15,525 Mile Flight to French Africa. ‘
By Richard Massock,
Associated Press Foreign Stafl’. ISTRES, France, Nov. B.—(A.P.)-- Sixty carefully-chosen French avia- tors in 30 aeroplanes started out to- day on a flight they hope will take them 15.525 miles to French Africa and enhance the military, commer- cial, and technical prestige of France.
The trip. expected to take a month during which tropical rains and windstorma are prevalent over part of the route, will be made in 33 stages of about 375 to 500 miles each.
Arrives at Cariugl-nu
(The armada arrived at Certag- ens, Spain, late today. One of them smashed in landing, and the pilots were slightly injured. The other planes will take off tomorrow for Rabat, French Morocco.)
The hardest and most dangerous stages may be those over the Sahara wastes, often swept by sandstoi-ms, where aeroplanes stir up blinding clouds of dust in landing.

Associated Press Foreign Staff. BERLIN, Nov. 8. - (AP) — The crew of the steamship Westphalen, anchored in the middle of the South Atlantic as a mothership for planes, will vote Sunday on Chancellor Hit- ler's foreign peace policies.
Ballots have been rushed by air to the floating airport and Captain Hzmz Gettmering will supervise the voting.
The sailors, like Germans at home have been asked to indicate their support for the Hitler administra- tion's withdrawal from the League of Nations and the Disarmament Conference and for his demands for pence and equality.
In the fatherland the word "peace" is on cveryboclyh lips, from Adolf Hitler to the youngest Storm ‘Prooper recruit.

B.—-(A.P.)- Sighting the certainty of prohibition repeal in United States, officials to- day hurried the formulation of plans for dealing with national phases of liquor control after December 1 when the 18th Amendment expires. Moving promptly behind the up- proval given by the necessary 3| states to the 21st Amendment which repcals prohibition, President Roose- velt called his aides to meet with him 'l=‘riday to devise a programme which would include recommenda-
tions to Congress.
Whatever plans the administration have formulated are being carefully guarded. A voluminous report on taxation, importation, and protec- tion of dry states has been sent to the President by a. committee set up weeks ago to work out a programme in anticipation of repeal.
