PARIS, Jan. 22.-The government of Premier Laval went down today as he and his ministers resigned in face of political dissensions.

NEW BRITISH KING WAS ON
 BATTLEFR0NTS
Tradition of English History Exemplified in Rul-
 ing Monarch

LONDON, Jan. 22.-In the grand old days of English history, warrior princes came to Britain's throne Having led the armed forces of the kingdom in battle, they felt qualified to govern the kingdom for which they had fought. In those old chival- rous days the kings were not only rulers of the country; they were the first warriors of the land.
 Today King sits on the throns of England who approximates in some measure that high ideal. He can with justice be called a warrior king. for he spent four years of his life, from 1914 to 1918, on many bat tlefronts. He is the first British mon- arch since George II. at the battle of Dettingen, in 1743, to take part in armed conflict.
 Memories Revived
 He revivifies the memory of war rior kings like William the Conquer or, Henry II, Edward I, Edward III and Henry V, who led the chivalry of England against Wales, Scotland Ireland and France until the little Kingdom of England had absorbed the three first and was secure from attack rom the last.
 The Prince of Wales, now King oi England, was 20 years old when wal broke out. He immediately left his round of social pleasures and duties and went to the battlefront as a staff officer. He was almost 25 when he left the scene of conflict, having spent four years amid the horrors of war. Almost every battlefront saw his slim, boyish uniformed figure. He was behind the lines in France, Italy and in far-away Africa.
 Disappointment
 The Princes greatest uisappoint- ment was that he was not permitted to take actual part in the conflict. I is reported that he protested agains

WASHINGTON, Jan. 22.-Con- gress has voted immediate payment of the veterans bonus by huge majorities, more than the two thirds needed to override a Presi- dential veto.
 The House today accepted the Senate's baby bond payment plan by a vote of 346 to 58. The Senate had previously approved it "A to Is.
 Speaker Byrns signed the bill immediately and sent it back to the Senate for President Gar ner's signature. After that it goes to the White House. No hint was given as to the Chief Executives action. He vetoed bonus bill last session.
 Three Per Cent Bonds
 The baby bond bonus plans calls for the starting of payment to vet- erans on their certificates on June Is of this year. Payment would be made in three per cent bonds of $50 denomination, the uneven amounts being paid in cash.
 Under the bill all interest is cancelled as of September 30, 1881. It was after that date that vet erans were allowed to borrow up to 50 per cent of their certificates. Prior to that certificate holders were allowed to borrow only small amount annually, not ex- ceeding total of 21 per cent. If interest has not been paid on loans previous to September 30. 1881, it will not be cancelled. However, most loans and interest were deducted when the 50 per cent loan was allowed

. POLITICAL DANGERS

From the standpoint of practical politics, the rub about advocating an amendment does not lie in the stipulation that three-quarters of the States are required to ratify a constitutional change.
 The immediate objective of the Democrats is to win the election For that purpose, only simple majority of the electoral college is needed. In other words, if the party advocates an amendment, and such advocacy is approved by enough States to make up mere electoral majority. then the party can win
 Should it win in that manner and on that issue, it could turn afterward to the question of com pleting redemption of it's campaign pedge. This may sound strange but it is the way party politics works.
 There is another rub, however which woud be real and immediate if the party declared for an amend ment. Before any amendment car be submitted to the States, it mus be approved by 8 two-thirds ma. jority in both Senate and House.
 In view of the overwhelming Democratic control in Congress, {

Lack of Amendment TaIk
 at Jackson Day Banquet
 Like sHUmIet' Minus Prince
By BYRON PRICE (Chief of Bureau, The Ass~cictsd d Press, WashingtOnl

Democratic hesitation about ti,, constitutional" issue clearly has become the focal point of current politics.
 The question on every tongue is whether MT. Roosevelt will con cede that this new deal' has come squarely against constitutional bar riers, and will ask that they be removed by constitutional amend ment.
 Absence of any open discussion of the subject at the Jackson Day dinner turned that gathering of ocrats into something re- sembling the mythical performance of Hamlet" with Hamlet left out.
 In the two and three-way con- versations around the tables there was abundant talk about the con- stitution. In the Hobbies of Con- gress, no other subject is men, tioned so often. Nothing which has happened to the Roosevelt Admin istration-not even the death of NRA-has stirred innner new deaP' circles like the Supreme Courts sweeping invalidation of AAA.
 There is a very good reason why more of this talk does not come into the open. This is campaign year, and the political qualifications of the constitutional" issue are many and devious.
