Paris, Jan. 20.-In 1923. the French
government is going to spend 20,OOO.0O
francs on propaganda in foreign coun-

that purpose by the budget. OF course.
large additional sums will be spent 20

value that all nations place on Amer

money will be spent in the United States

thousand dollars every da., Sundays
and holidays included.
1t may be asked. How will the money
be spent? VIII it produce the effect
that the French government expects?

The purpose of all such missions. Of

There will be no advertising on the

is relic of olden days, he says, when
it took several miutes TO chage reels and
the customers did not mind reading the
ads to pass away the time.
According to the announcement by
Mr.. Santikos not a moment need be
wasted during a performance and the
patrons should be given full value for

and alluding to British executions in
Ireland and India. The agent at the
same time handed to the soviet au-
thorities a private letter to the eff
feet that he was unable to receive the

trained to discount such official state
ments from Moscow. The belief is
now accepted that the vicar general
is dead. and the question arises
whether the British government can
allow this wanton persecution of the
Christian faith to pass without some
definite demonstration of the nations
sense of repugnance.
The soviet trade delegation today
enjoys almost complete liberty of ac-
tion within the British Isles, dealing
without restraint in all commodities
while the British delegation in Mos
COW is limited in action and harass-
ed by governmental restrictions on
every hand. This. according to many
public men in this country. constitutes
a grave breach of faith on the
soviet's part and offers n good op
portunity for Great Britain to rebuke
the Soviet government for it's un-
fairness. and at the same time i'm
press upon them the horror OF Chris
tendon at the extreme sentence i'm
posed upon Polish church dignitaries
by. either expellinR the soviet trade
delegation or reducing its field of
action to the same status as that
of the British delegation in Moscow.
VIII Not Forget Protest
1t is certain that the soviet's iron
handed policy against religion will not
be allowed to sink into the unremem-
bered past although as the Times de-
clares editorially the protest in Great
Britain thus far has been so faint that
one might infer that the government
had accepted the theory that belief in
God was a disputable question of
politics.
Moscow's reply to the British pro-
test over the executions also contains
further grounds for an immediate re-
sentful gesture. for it contains what Is
termed a deliberate affront TO Great
Britain as we'll as a cheap and con-
temptible sneer at the previous British
, policy in Ireland. This last might call
forth redoubled resentment, with the
British government strongly backing up
it's representative is Moscow. who will
not only enter a dignified reply, but
will follow ii with action expressing
the constance of the Christian world.
