 A similar opinion was expressed by Dr. Alcs Hrdlicks, curator Of the Na- tional museum. He asserted that there was little possibility of primitive man ever having inhabited the region of Santa Barbara.

activities of the "CamlotS" upon the
internal politics than in the prospec ct
of an ultimate realization of the mon
archistS' aims.
In face of the growing audacity of
the 'Camelots." Poincare is still
keeping up an ambiguous attitude.
but now there is a strong call from
the left-wing republicans that he
come out with a declaration against
them. The governments inactivity
toward royallst propaganda and vio-
lence is compared with the strong
action taken against the communists
at the opposite extreme of the po-
litical scale. as instanced in the trial
OF Cachin and the refusal to grant
amnesty to the Black Sea mutineer
leader, Marty, who is candidate for
the chamber.
Protest Immunitfes.
Critics of Poincare charge that Inn
munfty has been granted to royaliSts,
which encourages reactionary tend
encies, and that as result there may
be a dangerous swing of opinion to
the left, which should be avoided in
view of the coming elections. Poln-
care himself ever since he took office
has not developed any strong inter-
nal policy.
Concentrating all his energies in
the direction of French foreign
affairs, he has sought to maintain
unity among all except the extreme
parties at home, and would take sup
port from any quarters which are
ready to give it to him. Thus, from
time to time. he has borrowed sup
port from Daudet's monarchist group
not because he Is in any way SYM
pathetic with them but because they
are strongly nationalistic.
Poincare draws a distinction be-
tween the right and left extremes
on two grounds-F1rst, that royalists
are no danger to the republic. while
the communists are a danger, and
second, that partisans of the Due
d'Orleans put loyalty to France be-
fore loyalty to king. 1t is charged.
however, that this attitude gives
ground to q suspicion that the re-
publican government allows itself to
be influenced by monarchists, and
Poincare will face the loss of a good
deal of moderate republican support
If he takes no steps to restrain the
disorderly activities of the Came
lots"

PARIS, June SIS there danger OF

This question Is prompted by recent
activities. both in Paris and the prov

''Camelots de Roi," and the Paris
press of all shades of opinion is full
of speculation regarding the policy of
the Poincare government in relation
with the royalists. The matter seemed
to have come to crisis last week
when bands of "Camelots" beat up.

NJ Manoury said. The 'Camelots'
organization covers the whole OF
France. We have their plan and
know the names of their leaders"
1t Is significant. however. that Poin-
care carefully refrained from defining
his own position. and the genera
view is that no action is likely 70

simply against those members of the
organization directly implicated In
