FRANC SINKS
RAPIDLY AS
BRAND QUITS
Communists D e mGnd
New Elections


PARIS, March Without a cabinet
q &c Saturday morning, France faces
I most serious situation of this CEN
fury. The fall Of the BRAND govern
ment on the question Of 1Ia per cent
sales tax, which was put forward in
a last desperate effort to overcome
the budget crisis, is the fifth political
crisis arising out Of the financial
situation in the country.
The outbreak Of the colonial wars
in Morocco and Syria heralds a long
struggle that will further drain the
financial resources of the nation. The
refusal of the chamber of deputies to
vote the sales tax is considered evil
dence that no government can exist
with the present alignment in the
chamber. No one party has power;
every one of the last five cabinets
have been based upon temporary
coalitions of the groups in the cham
Der and every possible alignment has
been tried and failed.
Franc Still Fails.
The franc fell from 2S to 81 to the
dollar as soon as the cabinet fall was
ANNOUNCED and that there is every
likelihood that it will sink to a new
low level at tomorrow's opening.
Demand New Elections.
New elections are being demanded
by the Communists as they want the
opportunity to challenge the bour-
geois parties on the imperialist fright
fulness in Syria and Morocco and they
believe that an election campaign at
this time will enable them to reach
the masses Of French workers and
peasants with the message of revo-
luton as the only way out of the
present crisis.
Even some OF the leaders of the
other parties are now demanding the
dissolution Of the chamber of depu-
ties and the calling of new elections.
Rumor is rife that a new cabinet
may be attempted with Joseph Call
laux, former finance minister, as pre-
mier, and Raymond Poincaire, former
bloc rationale premier, as foreign
minister leaving BRAND out OF the
picture all together.
Other opinions contend that any
cabinet that is created will have
BRAND as foreign minister.
BRAND is now at Geneva and. it is
understood, is trying to get the ses-
sions postponed until the regular as
sembly next September

The Norris resolution. calling upon
the state department to furnish the
senate with the Official correspond

the recommendation OF Senator Borah

not at all alarming. Senator King. Of

He declared that he would introduce

URGES A SINCERE LENT OBSERVANCE Rev. s. A. Fiske DeploreS Mems
 Superficial Attitude GAME WARDEN TO SPEAK
Joseph Williamson, State Represent alive, Will Address Grange To- morrow Nieht-Hangers' Minstrel Troupe to Appear in Town.

The observance Of Lent is very often merely superficial observance while those who observe 1t are wait ing impatiently for the season to close, according 10 Rev. Samuel A. Fiske of the Berlin Congregational church. who yesterday morning was surprised by visit of a delegation of 6S men from Evcryman's Bible class Of New Britain at his morn- ing church service.
 Mir Fiske. who is known to his friends in Everyman's Bible class as san, the Bishop of Berlin" was not apprised of the proposed visit, which has been in the process of ar engagement for the past two weeks. ever since he concluded his series of four sermons 10 the class. He has beon selected as the dean of Every mans Bible class religious educa- tional program.
 The men from New Britain came to Berlin In special busses immedi- atcly after the close Of the class session X bouquet of roses was presented to the minister by Presi- dent B. I. Armstrong and General Walter w. Gould of the Red army, who foStercd the movement.
 Mir. F'iskn took az his theme, the general subject of Lent. He told how In the carly days Lent was but one or two days long. In the third century it was extended to three days and later its observance was extended to the six days between Palm Sunday and Easter, known as Holy Week" Tn the fourth cen- tury it was heightened to the 40 days preceding Holy Week and has been observed for that period 10 the present day.
 "One reason why people observe Lent is because there is q universal perennial need for periods Of rest, the minister explained, continuing I've are living m an age when to be eager and alert has been bred right Into us, These things are good but We need moro each year a sea son when we may have a quiet time for meditation.
 "Wc are not as well acquainted with ourselves in the unconscious expression Of our lives as we ough' 10 be- No man can ever know him self unless he takes time te sit do"r and analyze himself
 I've say men ought to go tt church, and they ought to, but le us not be exclusive. Lent is not thu peculiar institution of any church o' any communion, 1t is for all men, We have had a lot of fantastic abuse of Lent. We have observe 1t in the most superficial and child like ways. IL is not simply q givinI
