charge that not long ago. when max
ing one of his numerous speeches in
war graveyard, he laughed.
Friends explained that 1t wasn't real
ly a laugh; that the sun got in his
eyes and caused him to grimace!
Born in 1860, son of a government
efficial, educated for the bar, Poin-
care had a long and distinguished
career in the chamber of deputies
and afterwards in the French SEN
ate. He was president of the repub-
lie during the war and is now pre-
mier. Supported in the main by the
bulk of the Partisan press, he is
nevertheless the object of sharp at

made for war, made by war"

This is the way an observer in
London answers the question:
IF Europe is a powder BARREL
Poincare is the man who Is playing
with lighted match. If Germany is
full of open wounds, it Is Poincare
who is poking them to keep them
open. If England is really trying to
bring peace on the continent, it IS
Poincare who bars the way. If
France actually has the only prac-
ticable plan, it is Poincare who is
expected to point the way"
Poincare-whose policies are the
despair of the rest of Europe and
his whiskers the delight of carica-
turists here and abroad-is highly
explosive both as an orator and a
writer. He proved it when he was
trying to bring down the BRAND
cabinet.

The signs are to be taken down by

Then they are to be destroyed.
