Notes

Deputy Prince Joachim Murat, a descendant of one Joachim Murat, King of Naples and Napoleon's "playmate," was set upon by "hoodlums" who obviously did not like him. The Prince was kicked, scratched, poked, spat upon and hurled from the platform from which he was speaking at Souillac, Communist stronghold, home of the notorious Louis Malvy.*

One Adolphe Tholome was tried for bigamy in a Paris court. Both his wives were present; both pleaded for leniency, urging that Adolphe was a good husband and father. His attorney urged that the bigamist was helping France when she needed babies. The jury condemned him to two years in prison, but recommended his release on the ground that it was his first offense. Dr. Lutembacher, "distinguished French scientist," claimed that he has invented a cardometer capable of distinguishing between true and false love by measuring heart throbs. The invention aroused the intense curiosity of the feminine sex.

--Louis Malvy--pacifist, exiled from France during the War.
