BRAND OBSERVES
 HIS @7H BIRTHDAY
Still One Of Frances Powerful
 Politicians

Paris, March cS.--"One of the very best sailors in the stormy sea Of French politics is an epithet often applied to Aristide Briand, French foreign minister, who today celebrated his 66th birthday.
 Twenty-six Of his years have been spent ill parliament. He has been premier nine times and has held | portfolio in more than q dozen ministries.
 In his kaleidoscope career he has been, sometimes involuntarily. the high hope of practically every im- portant political party. He has been bitterly denounced as a turncoat by the revolutionary element with which he was associated in the be- ginning of his political life. He him. self declares he is still socia list and officially belongs to a group thus labelled but he contends he has ad- Nanced while his onc-time associates have not. Adaptabiljty is the keynote of his character.
 Starting out in 1892 as a violent partisan of the general strike as a working class political weapon he found no contradiction of principle when, IS years later as premier, he fought and defeated a project for a general strike of railroadmen. He merely explained that in this case it vas the nations interests first. the mems afterwards. In his many con- ferences with European statesmen of divergent opinions since the war he has followed the same line-that of gong around an obstacle rather than making a frontal attack.
 Lived Close to Sea
 This attitude has been attributed to the fact that M. Briand was born and brought up close 10 the ocean, living with marines and travellers Of the seven seas. versed in all the lore of navigation, utilizing tides and currents and winds lacking and tlllng as circumstances demanded. As boy he intended to become a sailor but was dissuadcd by his par ents when an old uncle. d pilot. was drowned within sight of the Briand home. That settled young Aristide. He decided to be a landsman and made law his profession.
 Born March 2S, 1862. at St. Ma zaire, the port with which members of the A. F. r. became acquainted in 1917. Aristide Briand is of old Bre- ton stock. He was educated there and at Nantes. where one of his predecessors was Georges Clemen-

ranch in northern New Mexico. He took up flying about five years ago both as pastime and 10 enable him to cover speedily the broad territory of which he was in charge.
 Rohlfs flew the wrecked plane from New York to Douglas. On Thursday he left Douglas for Mexico City by way of Nogales with King and Springer on what was under stood to be a pleasure jaunt.
 King, who had offices in both Douglas and Mexico City. was a close friend Of President Gales and General Obregon, candidate for the presidency. He was counsel for many mining companies in Mexico. including the Cusi Mexicana and the Cia La Ventura. He was interested with the late General John C. Green way. l.. D. Ricketts and H. c. Dud- ley in ganizing the Ahumada an! Erupticion companies at Los La mentas, Mexico.

showed he was right.
 M. Briand is an inyeterate smoker. One of his political ad- Nersaries, waiting in the ante- chamber of the ministry of foreign affairs, saw messenger SO to the minister's room with a tray filled with cigarette boxes and matches.
 There go the foreign minister's writing materials" he commented.
 No" said Briand. who was com ing out. They merely enable me to think. My secretary does the writing"
 IL is as an orator that NJ. Brand shines. He has an intuitive knoul- edge of what crowd wants, whether it be in the chamber or at a public meeting. He begins with out referring 10 what he has in mind to talk about. He feels his way and gradually he has his audience un- consciously thinking along his lines. Then only does he warm up and im- provise eloquence.
 He has never been known to write Ia full speech beforehand. except Of course, those which he makes as the spokesman of the cabinet on q set issue.
 Since the signature of the Treaty of Versailles NJ. Briand has played one Of the most important roles in the European after war drama. Pacihcation and rcconcn. iation has been his aim. He was responsible for the Locarno treaty with Germany. the Thoiry and Gen. eva accords. and was the leading fig ure in meetings between British German. Italian and French states men. In Nov. 1921, he went to Washington as head of the French delegation to the disarmament con- ference and made a notable speech telling why France was not in position to disarm on land. He wants reconciliation with Germany but he insists on security first.

mon of good will to cooperate for a realization Of q program of full ap- pliccation Of the principles that Catholics have at heart.
 Discusses Roman Question
 !Apropos of the Roman question the communique says if the church and state were spoken of together it Was because after our absolute in- competence to discuss and decide that most delicate problem, the eventual solution ought to be left to the sole and supreme judgment of the Pope. This is our view as Catho- lies and as Italians we invoked the wisdom and the new spirit animating the action of the states directors.
 ms stand was taken, the com- nuniquc resumes, because it was wanted to make clear that ractical- ly the solution in question could re- suit only from an agreement directly concluded between both the church and the state as has been often authoritatively declared.
 Taking up the Pope's strictures as to the religious policy and the ecclesiastical policy Of the party the document says the incriminated phrases Were suggested because 1t seemed opportune 10 treat Separate- ly provisions regarding religious liberty in reparation for past vexa- tons of Masonic governments and those provisions relative to the ap- pllcation of ccclesiastic legislation stlli Tn force with regards 10 the clergy. and church institutions and particularly in regards to specific re- lafions between the Italian state and the Holy See.
 The communiuue concludes: "The National Catholic center in full in. dlsputable homage to the supreme religious authority reaffirms it's own loyal and active adhesion to the Fascist regime in its effort to reno Nate Italian life, convinced that it's own action may prove useful for the defense of religious principles and the welfare of the fatherland."
