Paris, France, Sept. 23,-President
Paul Deschanel goes off the stage,
broken mind rambling. There are
some who say that the prevailing
order in France is like Chat moving
along galyanically, ready to stumble
into the sea as Deschanel did lately
into a park lagoon-and perhaps not
to rise from the waters.
But that is too rosy view. The
established order dies hard. 1t clings
tenaciously, it sets its teeth and it's
claws into the body of society, and
when its victim digs its own nails
into the flanks of the oppressor, the
old order heals quickly.
There is to be a change, but the
next move will not be a rising OF the
workers. They are not yet ready for
that, though the sentiment is grow
ing. 1t is from the royalists that the
next big striving may be expected.
They have been scheming for years,
awaiting their chance; their possi-
bilty that they will try to push aside
the present so-called republican gov
ernment and set up in its stead a
monarchy
The stage is indeed set for a repe-
tition of the revolutions Of 184S and
'56 and III. Back of the royalists
stand the general staff of the army
--Foch, Petain, and Weygand-col-
lege professors, many students, and
large numbers of peasants and North
ern French fishermen, who readily
believe what they are told by the
clergy and the nobility. These far,

London, Sept 23.-Terence Mac

mayoress is not permitted to talk

The appearance of articles alleg-

falsely portrayed and asserting he
"was we'll, but sulky," led to an in

Sean MacSweeney, brother of the
hunger striker, told the United Press:

my brother entered this strike. We
were really surprised at the world S
interest. However, when such in

"Our family is sincerely grateful
for the manifestations of sympathy
which have reached US. We have
played fair with the public which
was so kind to us. We have not at
tempted to hide any angle of his

MacSweeney complained of pains
