Investigations and trials have come to naught. There have been strange Immunities or known criminals, and always the suspicion if not the proof that politicians have been involved. And it sometimes happens, as in the Stavisky case, that the ordi- nary processes of justice have been singularly obstructed. Obviously there comes a time when all corr- fidence is destroyed in a régime which permits such laxity.
