Purifying Politics

EON DEGRELLE, Leader of the Rexists, whose success was the sensation of the Belgian elections, is A Fascist with a difference.

His speciality is religion. The "Rex" which gives name to his Party in "Christus Rex "" Christ the King": stolen, I think, from the Mexican Clericn1s,

His slogan is the purification of politics: deriving partly in an odd sart of way from the old Belloc-Chesterton- New Witness Movement here, partly from 10 slogans of the French Right. He attacks the yankers--" bankslers Is the term he has coined-in the name of religion. But at the same time he attacks Parliament an] democracy. and claims to be the Heaven-sert Leader of the Belgian people.

And the fact that "Rex" is in oppe- sition.

What Next?

THINK that is the most important factor in the case.

For just over a year Belgium has been governed by a Cabinet of National Union: Ministers of all the three · big parties, with a non-party Premier. Qocialists, Libernis and Catholics have worked well together. The Van Zeeland Government has successfully ateered the country through the critical months of devaluation.

But auch a system has its drawbacks. Dissatisfaction with the Government, for whatever reason, could not express Itself by voting either Catholic or Liberal or Socialis.. I hnd to ad some other way.

Bo the dissatisfied have turned to the Communists, and in Flanders to the Flemish Nationals and to tho Rexists. Degrelle provided the discontented of the Right with a rallying point. Hence his gains,

But what the Rexlats with their vague programme will do with their success remains to be seen.

Tortoise Wins

SCITUSCHNIGG'S victory over Blar hemberg is the victory of the tortoise over the lure.

Starttemberg is brilliant, daring, al tractive, but very weird, and fond of many things besides politics.

Schuschnigg is dull by comparison, but for an Austrian, incredibly serious- minded; a alcady, worker, always at his desk; never taking his mind off his Work; playing a sober, rareful, thought- fut sama.

Effelency has defented brilliance. But all the same it would be a mis- take to regard the Chancellor as the real "strong man" of Austria.

The real driving force, the hard will behind Schuschnigg's rather pedestrinti elletency, is Colonel Adam, who r boll Minister of Propaganda and Secretary of the "Fatherland Front."
