BRAND, the, Bohemian
He Remained

in his heart, as much his life as the
forum for which nature had shaped
him. The years were to change neither
the one nor the other. Something of
old Montmartre'S laughter and laisser
fatre has chung to MIN, from the Cafe
du CroisSant to the Quai d'Orsay. And
the old comrades are not forgotten. In
fact, one of them-M. Peycelon-he
brought with him from the provinces to
Montmartre and from Montmartre to
the Quai dOrsay. There M. Peycelon
functions in an off1cial capacity of his
own, and when the days work is ended
you will find him more often than not
seated at table with his boyhood idol
both obliviouS to all but the,
shifting fortunes of piquet or poker.
Does M. BRAND again remove his shoe
and place 1t on the table for q porte
bonheur"? No one knows for q GER
tainty except that inner circle Of his.
but 1t Is very probable that s.e does.
During the September League session
at Geneva the French foreign minister
gave an unusual interview to newspaper
correspondents which shrewd headline
writer on q Paris journal captioned
thus: "A Portrait of M. BRAND by M.
BRAND" The self-painted portrait was
this:

deceived by illusions"
NJ Rriand'e D0rtrait fc a trllp one
Throughout his long public life. when
ever IAN idea has come to him" he has
persisted in 1t with the true tenacity OF
q born Breton. Therein lies the success
of his policy of Locarno. 1t is that
which explains the vigor which still
typifies his policy of rapprochement with
Germany. He is not deceived over the
cost-and even less SO over the value
of what he seeks.
During the war M. BRAND furnished
an example of this stubborn persistence
when he inaugurated the cry for allied
participation on the Balkan front.
Kitchener, Lloyd George and many 9TH
erS disagreed with BRAND at first. fall
ing to believe his arguments that the
war would be ended sooner II the Bal
kan allies were reinforced. But in the
end M. BRAND won and the expedition
to Saloniki was organized. Today Jugo-
siavia &, unshakable alliance with France
probably owes its strength more than
anything else to the deep appreciation
of the Serbs for Brands support IN
time Of need.
Vision and Tenacity Characterized.
It Is this vision and tenacity which
have characterized this Bohemian from
his youth Even at the beginning OF his
political career he dared to speak OF In
ternationalism. Was 1t. perhaps. the
seed of his policy Of peace? At least.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1929-09-22

II was the forerunney of that idea, and
by the end of the war M. Brands
policy of Locarno" had so taken shape
that he was musing through half-closed
eyelids 40 to how 1t could be applied.
Already he was convinced Of its neces-
sity.
~ As early as the Cannes conference.
BRAND disclosed to one of his intimate
friends that the proposed security pact
with Great Britain, which he had dis
cuSsed there, in his mind should be-
come within reasonably short time q
general European security pact. With
that idea In mind he convoked the dis
appointing GNloa conference. And
when M. BRAND returned to power four
years later bis purpose was unchanged.
He was ready to take things up where
they lad been left of.
Some Speak Bitterly Of Him.
There are those who speak bitterly of
Briandian expediency, of his political
adroitness and soup!eSSe. But here was
statesmanlike courage which no other
statesman in France possessed at that
hour. Only three years after the war,
in a country still bitter and more dis
illusioned than ever. it was BRAND who
dared speak of making an agreement
on q basis of equality with Germany:
He, too. who talked Of recognition OF
the Soviet, regardless of the fact that
no great government at that time had
recognized Moscow.
1t is curious fact that BRAND.
dreamer though he Is. from hts very
youth has rubbed elbows with realities.
That more than anything else explains
his great sense Of reality, which Is
quite as pronounced as his attributes OF
q visionary. There are many men IN
French life of far more practical tenn
permanent than the farmer statesman OF
Cocherel, but who, politically, are much
less practical than BRAND is. M Poin-
care, the most practical minded Of them
all, in q political pinch drifts away from
realities, frequently misses his oppor-
tunities. In similar situation 1t Is
BRAND, the fragrant Utopian and
dreamer, who is the true realist, with
both feet solidly on the ground Of po-
litical expediency.
Thus 1t may be said that all M.
Brands policies have been based on
facts. Not statistics, not collected data,
heaven knows. for the apostle Of Lo-
carno shuns tabulated facts and figures
alike. M. Poincare may devour them
and does. M. BRAND spews them out.
It has often been said that he never
read the Versailles treaty. Brands
facts are men and a bulls-eye knowledge
of their motives and inspirations. To
him the important fact Is not how many
marks to q decimal point 100000
Germans can pay. The important thing
is how 100000 Germans feel, and
why. ~-- ...-

Japan to Curb Flow
of Korean LabOrers

Increasing unemployment in Japan
has brought the authorities OF the home
ministry face to face with the task Of
limiting the number of immigrants
who come in search of work. Although
not the subject of wide publicity, Japan
has an immigration problem all her
own, this being caused by the streams
of Korean and Chinese laborerS who
try to establish themselves here where
the wage level Is much higher than in
their own countries.
Heretofore it has been easy to keep
undue numbers Of Chinese out, but be-
cause the Koreans are Japanese SUBJ
jects they have had the right to enter
Japan proper at will. The first step in
curtailing the forces of Korean immi-
grants, however. is about to be taken in
the form OF an orGer prohibiting the
entry of any laborers unless they can
show written contracts issued by en-
ployers in Japan, There are now nearly
$50, 900 Korean laborers here.
The continued economic slump fol-
lowing the financial panic Of 1927, the
drastic retrenchment policy OF the new
Hamaguchi government and the ap-
preaching completion of Tokio's vast
reconstruction program combine to make
the unemployment problem unusually
acute. i@
