The amazing revelation was made by
Commandant Massard i'm his series OF
war espionage articles that in 1914
when the enemy was nearing the gates
of Paris an order was given to tho
police TO burn all the dossiers of unde-
sirables or suspects In the capital in
order to prevent tho names OF their
stool pigeons from falling into the hands
of the enemy. As result neither the
municipal police nor tho secret police
was able later 20 find hundreds Of per-
sons who should have been expelled
or at least kept under surveillance.
The writer condemns such lack OF
foresight. especially as hundreds or
wagon loads Of more or less mediocre
art was taken from the museums and
stored in cellars. whereas three motor
trucks could have saved the nations
most vital police records.

France has imported new dance from

say that II is the most tangible result

The new dance. which seems 10 be
