BRITAIN AND FRANCE IN ROW OVER OWNERSHIP OF JERSEY ISLANDS
By Ralph Heinzen (United Press Staff Correspondent) Pwrls, July 30 —(UP)— Although both the Qual d'Orsay In Paris and the Foreign Office in make every effort to pretend to know nothing aboilt It, there is a aerioua dispute na 10 the ownership of three Huy islands, the Mlnquleres, lying between the Jersey Ihluikls and St. Malo, on the I French constThe Mlnquleres, like tin 1 Jersey is I lands themselves, form part of the old
Duchy of Normandy. Although thes( islands are within a few miles of the French consi and are French by tradition and language the Jersey group lias belonged to Engllidi for centuries. Bathed by the Gulf Stream, the I ■ lands have a climate like Florida, In atrange contrast to the French mainland where the winters are rigorous. A Paris millionaire, Henri Lerouxv promlnenet as a heavy plunger on tinBourse, decide to build a castle on one of the Mtniquieres.
Believing that the Island was French he appUid to the French Author'tles al St Ln and obtained written authorization to build on the island and a rental lease of !>9 years on the whole Is land. The officials at St. Heller, in Jersey heard of the building and ordered work stopped in the name of King George of England. The pretext is that the Island forms part of the Duchy of Normandy, bit I that to (.rove the sovereignty of the British King, a Union Jack is unfti’led, symbo .cully, one day each y-’at over the island. The tradition of the Duchy is that Letoux, if he vanls to gain the enr

of the sovereign ruler, must go to Saint Heller and cry three times"Haro, luiro haro Help me Good Prince, for a wrong lias Iteen done.” That tradition dates back to good old Rollo, and the cry lug must be done In a public place. Theoretically, the Good Pl Ice hears 11, but actually, some t sleepy administrative official writes I down a report. , Leroux has in mind a much more I '’.lrnple solution; lie plans to appeal to • tile Qua! d' Orsay and if that does not I rod me action, to the League of Nat ‘ins.
