U S Waller Case and Transit Suit Reported in Paris and Boston
The United States embassy has no instruction on ex Consul Waller who was arrested in Madagascar and is to be imprisoned on Iles du Salat. Waller’s son in law Paul Brey is in Zanzibar to be repatriated by the French and U S authorities. In Boston a bill in equity shuts down Rapid Transit construction as plaintiffs sue the Rapid Transit Commission and city officials over the subway plan. They allege improper consolidation of rival bills into one law creating the Boston Transit Commission and condemnations affecting streets and property without compensation and exceeding debt limits.
