CLEMENCEAU URGES
BALANCE Of POWER

PARIS, Nov 81. - George Gle
menceau. Tiger of France" Is again
revealed as an uncompromising adher-
ent of the old European system OF
the balance of power in a sensa-
tional article written for the 1.aus-
anne Gazette by Maurice Muriet. an
intimate friend of the former Premier.
The article recalls the famous oc-
casion during the Paris peace con-
ference when Clemenceau came out
openly for the return to the balance
of power" system Immediately after
President Wilson had made vigorous
public appeal for league OF nations.
THE directors of French politics,
writes Muret, were always skeptical
of the prospects of league of ma
tions since President Wilson launched
the idea. Clemenceau told me con-
fidentially:
"'Thc league IL n Utopia. TOmor-
row. as yesterday, II IL the balance
Of power, assured by alliances, which
will settle the fate Of Europe md the
world
m. Clemenceau asked me at the
time not to publish this prematurely."

TR00PSGUARD
LLOYD GEORGE
Downing Street Heavily Patrol
led to ForestaIl Any Action
Against Premier.
SINN FEM PLOTS FEARED
All England Expects Irish Will
Resent Arrest of Griffith
With Violence.

LONDON, Nov. 27-Both houses
Of Parliament were ordered closed
to all visitors today.
This extraordinary measure, taken
previously only on rare occasions
in Britain's history, is attributed, in
we'll informed quarters, to a "tip,"
believed to have been received by
the government, that the much ru-
mored Sim Fein attack is due to be
attempted today.
Precautionary MEASURE
The official explanation, given
shortly after the public announce
ment Of the closing, was that tho
order was "a precautionary measure
for the protection of the government
Offices in case of possible trouble"
The historic gray building st 10
Downing street, headquarters OF the
government and official residence OF
Premier Lloyd George; In thoroughly
barrfcaded. A special force OF guards,
heavily armed. stand in front. and
both ends of whitehall are being pa
troIied by equally beavy guards.
The government, II was pointed out,
learned a valuable lesson on the oc-
casion of the recent Whitehall riot by
the Army of the Unemployed" that
came near eliminating in the storm
ing of the prime minister's official
home.
sINN FEM PLOT FEARED.
The Globe fatty declares that tho
barricading Of 10 Downing street -
precauti0n against n 'Sinn Feia
plot,
when will they strike and where
is a question on all lips. Public feel
ing has been strained to a high pitcn
of nervousness and anxiety by the
constantly recurring official utter
ances during the week to the effect
that the government has in its pos
session convincing evidence that
Sim Fein planned-probably still
plans-to carry it's fight to the heart
of Britain's governmental authority.
Stories of a plot to kill Lloyd
George are again making the rounds
today, and fear for the premier's life
Is the dominant note in the public
tension. Newspapers are snatched up
eagerly and scanned for every scrap
OF news concerning the movement OF
the first official Of the empire.
CAPITAL Is ANXIOUS.
The arrest yesterday Of Arthur
Griffith acting president of the "re-
public Of Ireland" and idol OF the
Sim Feiners, whose organization he
founded, has stirred rebellious senti-
ment in Erin to fever heat, all Irish
news dispatches show, and nothing in
the way of desperate acts on the part
of his sympathizers would surprise
London
Sim Fein are known to have re-
markably efficient and thorough
going secret service in London, with
ramifications extending even into gov
ernment offices.
Not since the war days has the pub
lie of this capital been in the grip OF
such anxiety.

embarrassed when officials of the
legion wanted to know why the Gov

soldiers.
BUREAUS LEADER FIRE.
The overlappings and inefficiencies
OF the War Risk Insurance Bureau,
the Public Health Service and the

flcials who sarcastically and pointed
ly drew the attention of these bu-
reaus to their failure to function in
the cases Of hundreds and hundreds
OF former soldiers and sailors who
are in dire need of Government aid.
Col. Cholomeley Jones, head OF the
War Risk Bureau. Tell Lampkin, OF
the Federal Board for Vocational
Education, and Gen. Hugh Cummings,
Of the Public Health Service, were on
the griddle. and were tormented
without end by the legion officials

was a most uncomfortable session for
all the Government representatives
present.
Attention was drawn most of the
afternoon to a bona fldc attenrt that
was made this fall to provide Govern

ing of the Federal vocational education
board and for patients of che War

was made when the Comptroller OF

BONDED BOOZE TO

New Revenue Regulations Will
Dash Hopes of Holders Of
Certificates.

Regulations soon to b. issued by
the Internal Revenue Bureau will
deal with the phases of the prohibit
ton enforcement act touched upon by
the decision OF the Supreme Court Of
the United States. The legal depart
ment OF the Prohibition. Bureau is un-
derstood to have completed the work
on the main parts of the decision.
Information from officials OF the
bureau. giving their private opinion
is to the effect that the recent court
decision does not go so far as to in
clude the removal OF liquor in bond
ed warehouses. This opinion is so
universal among the officials that II
is sure to be Incorporated in the new
regulations.
The decision of the Prohibition Bu-
reau will dash the hopes OF those per-
soss holding certificates for liquor in
bonded warehouses. and will also
have tendency to bring down again
the price OF certificates.
