Some Real Embarrassment.

1t is related that at a New York
political meeting of one of the old
line parties an effort was made TO
stir enthusiasm by getting the audi
ence to sing, my Country 'Tis of
Thee, Sweet Land of Liberty" The
assembled voters failed to join In
as the leaders had hoped, and the
reason was made apparent when
somebody shouted out:
Get Barnes to sing that without
blushing and we'll all follow"
The musical part of the program
was at once dropped.

BRAND entered the lists practically single
handed, and in order to submit a govern

reconstruct his cabinet. But he failed
in the end to push through his much
discussed anti-SyndicaliSt bill.
The same principle of allowing gov
eminent officials to form unions is in
volved in the present dispute with the
teachers. The Poincare ministry seems
united in it's determination to break up
the existing unions. The only point
which seems to offer an opening for a
difference of opinion in the cabinet is
whether the unions will be allowed to
reorganiZe on "a Legal basis.
In the meantime NJ. Guisthau, the min
lister of education, has committed the
tactical error of announcing al the height
of the struggle that a number of reforms
would be proposed by the government.

force in the course of five years and are
estimated to cost SS,NDJ00W. seek to
guarantee teachers against arbitrary
