Editorial Paragraphs

January 15, 1930 issue

add to cart   close window

French Politics should be livelier than ever now that guiding genius of Léon Daudet, the Action Francaise and protagonist of a monarchy in place of the republic, has been pardoned and allowed to return from comfortable exile in Belgium. There was nothing to do but pardon him, of course, for the circumstances of his exile were ridiculous. Daudet bitterly attacked the Paris police about three years ago for alleged complicity in the death of his son and for that was convicted of libel and sentenced to prison.
