``NIW PRENCH PRESIDENT.
MILLERAND ELECTED ON HIS OWN TERMS.
STRIKING DEPARTURE.
LONDON, September 26,
A striking departure ia connection with M. Millerand's election, which
| passed almost unheeded here, is the fact that he was elected upon his own terms and not as a figurehead. He intends in the future, by reviving number of powers which the Constitution gives to the President, but which for a long time have remained practically a dead letter, to be the actual chief director of the State and its policy,. For example M. Millerand holds that Article VII of the Constitution affords the President power to negotiate and ratify a treaty. Hence it is thought he is likely to take an active part in the direction of France's foreign policy.
ILORS,
- PREMIER OVERSHADOWED.
It is declared that he is likely to overshadow, the Premier much as the American President dominates the Cabinet. The new President is in a position of almost monarchical authority and prestige an each are known in countries where the Crown actively participates in the direction of affairs. Anyway, it is confidently anticipated that the changes will but help-xo solidify Anglo-French relatione

BOLSHEVIK JEWIES,
ENORMOUS PLAN TO RAISE FUNDS.
"WORLD PROPAGANDA.
LONDON September 26.
The Observer makes disclosures revealing that the Daily Herald and the Russian jewel transactions are but an infinitesimal part of an enormous Russian plan to raise funds for world wide propaganda by the systematic confiscation throughout Russia of all jewela. M. Kamene originated the scheme in April of 1918, which was elaborated by a Polish diamond merchant, involving a house to house search and the confiscation of jewelt. These were to be carefully graded and selected pargels sent throughout the world for disposal in a pre-arranged and careful manner. Germany and America have already had a large share, while a number of parcels have already been sold in Japan, France, England and Holland,
DISCOVERED THROUGH STUPIDITY,
The discovery of the Herald's transection was due to the stupidity of the agents insating on payment in English turresy. Moreover several [recent visitors to Russia from England have already returned with Bolshevik propaganda and jewels. The Soviet officials on the frontiera call these folks briliantchika." The Soviet jewel department is very active in the east and Kemalpasha already has a number of beautiful stones.
