It's a bit trickier than than in the US. A book first copyrighted in 1924, as I believe Treve was, could still be in copyright if, and only if, the copyright holder had properly renewed the original 28 year copyright. That renewal would have had to been made during the last 12 months of the original copyright span. If renewed, the US copyright would be 95 years from publication date.
