Kept In Repair.

PARIS Feb. 24-The clerical organs unite
in declaring that Cardinal Richard, ARCH
bishop OF Paris. will not submit to the new
proposal Of the government regarding
church leases. and their Rome dispatches
eategorically insist that Pope Plus is re-
solved TO maintain intact the original text
offered by the French episcopate and to
refuse even to discuss the governments

priests for the keeping up Of churches and
the exclusion OF foreign priests or members
OF dissolved orders as parties to contracts
Whether these Inspired statements are only
part OF the diplomatic game remains to be
SEEN
Premier Clemenceau now admits frankly
that as far as he Is concerned he never
expected the church to accept the condi-
lions as to leases, but he says that Minister
of Education BRAND did. and that the
cabinet unanimously accorded him chance
to conclude the negotiations upon the terms
stated.

viously contemplated. The churches will
remain open, that goes without saying,
and, It is conceded, without lease to the
clergy, and the State department or com
mune. as the case may be. win bear the
cost Of keeping up repairs to a church out
of the funds of the church itself. But
