12 * RENGH EDLOGEE AMBUSH VTS Disorders Attend Funeral; Held as Appeal for Law and Order. Ty the Assosiated Press PARIS, A;’r]l 27.—Three of the four sons Killed, in the ambuscade of the ng of the National Republican ue in the Rue Damremont Fri- .y morning were burled from Notre 'ame Cathedral yesterday. The cere- ony took on the character of a na- onal appeal for law and orde: gainst “the horrible visage of hate” nd “the germs of civil war,” as seen - the orators in the Marseille riots. ommunist attacks upon the police nd the bolshevik menace. Former President Millerand, Gen. ‘e Castelnau, head of the militant ( atholic organization; Deputy Tait- leader of the ‘“patriotic to which the victims of the mbuscade belonged, and Maurice Quentin, president of the city council, livered speeches over the three cas- Lets in the great square efore Notre fame. Many thousands of persons filled the streets and the bridges ithin sight of the cathedral. Strong yrees of police, military and civie or- anizations were on hand to maintain order. r Arrests Made. Several arrests took place during a series of disorders along the line of march to the cemetery, where it re- quired more than an hour for mem- 2rs of political organizations to pass v the caskets and salute their dead comrades Cardinal Dubois granted absolution tn the dead at the funeral service. The olor was draped over the door of he cathedral, to which were admitted v the victims' families, Premier rainleve, a representative of President Doumergue, caribineers, parliamen- « tarians and detachments from various vrganizations, including the Royalists. At the ceremony outside the cathe- dral M. Quentin said the ambuscade ould not be explained as due to po- litical animosity. “The truth is,” he sald, “that for several months the serms of civil war, whether latent or iictive, have appeared in more than une place.” Patriots Lauded. Gen. de Castelnau contrasted the victims’ love of country with com- munism’s “horrible visage of hate” nd its threat “when the time is ripe there will come, weapons in hand, a red terror and wholesale shooting.” M. Millerand described the funeral as a national ceremony for honoring “defenders of the right menaced by the assaults of barbarians. The newspapers today express alarm overthe situation. All of them re searching for a remedy. The op- position organs blame the Herriot and Painleve governments for passive en- ouragement of the Communists. The government organs urge the dissolu- ion of all militant organizations on the ground that they are provocative of trouble. The Communist organ, L'Humanite, which has been warning Communists to “defend yourselves against Fas- cism,” today launched a campaign for an “anti-Fascist day.” This fact is said to have prompted the government “to adopt a drastic program for May day by ordering all the police on pa- trol and also heavy forces of military to be held In reserve. It is said the government possibly may forbid all May day assemblages PANTANO TO BE EXECUTED DURING WEEK OF JUNE 8 Diamond Brothers and John Farina Will Be Electrocuted Thurs- day for Same Crime.
