~ . SOALISTS LOATH TO DESERT HERRIT Angry Over Weak Amnesty Bill and Vatican Issue, But Will Back Premier. Br the Associated Press. GRENOBLE, France, February 7.— Whether the Socialist deputies in the f*rench chamber, numbering 105, wiil continue to support the government of Premier Herriot Is the main issue before the congress of the Socialist party which opens here tomorrow. A Koclallst secession would mean the downfall of M. Herriot. Extremists in the party find much to criticize In what they call t “opportunist tactics” to which the So clalist group in the chamber has re- peatedly resorted. The voting of the placarding of the premier's security tpeech, which they considered “as re- actionary and as far to the Right as £ny Poincare ever pronounced,” was # bitter pill for the extremists to swallow. In order to maintain the govern- ment in power the Sociallsts were forced to vote for an anathema to Bocialist orthodoxy—namely, secret police funds. They also had to accept A lukewarm amnesty bill and approve the partial Vatican representation measure. There is considerable dis- content, and the leaders in the cham- ber will face here the charge of sell- dng the party’s birthright for a mess ©f bourgeois pottage. The outlook is that the congress, Rfter a heated debate, will vote to vontinue its support of M. Herriot, whose downfall would mean a gov- ernment of the Center.

King, Greatest Newspapers Named by Jason Rogers ASON ROGERS, formerly publisher of the New York Globe and now editor and owner of the Advertisers’ Weekly, a foremost authority on American newspapers, in the Advertisers’ Weekly of January 17, in- cludes the following in his survey of the efficiency of advertising through- This article deals only with the 32 largest cities in the country. They are our greatest markets, representing among them nearly 73 per cent of all the buying pow er of the Nation. As an instrument for presenting the merits of goods to the attention of the great body of American buyers there is no substitute for these papers as a group—nothing just as good, nothing nearly so good. Without desiring in any way to throw aspersions on the second, third or any other newspaper in any community, I propose to set up a national picture of newspaper advertising as a demonstration of how such adver- tising can be used with greatest efficiency to cover the largest market zones in the United States at lowest cost.
