Friends Praise and Former Minister Attacks Com- munities. —_— PARIS, March 12—The Chamber of Deputies was the center of great interest and animatlon to-day at the opening of the debate on the religious orders. A large crowd filled the gallerieg and the | floor of the chamber was also crowded. The Ministerlal bench was occupled by Premier Combes and most of his asso- clates {n the Ministry. Previous discussfons of the subject this session have involved incidental phases, such as the use of the Breton dialect in the schools, but to-day’s debate involved the main issue, the question of the dis- continuance of teaching by the religious orders. The matter came up on a propo- sition submitted by the Premier refusing the request for authorization to teach made by fifty-four male religious congre- | sations. This has been made a special order of the day, the expectation of the majority being that the debate would con. tinue six to ten days before a decislve vote could be taken. Owing to the| strength shown by the Ministry on the | recent test votes the adoption of the Premier's proposition was considered | practically certain. | The early stages of the debate to-day | were devoid of exciting features. = The | Abbe Gayraud, Catholic Republican, and | M. Lerolle, Conservative, spoke against the proposition. 1 APPEAL IS DISREGARDED. Abbe Gayraud, in his speech, asked the | Chamber to recommit to the commission (the report that Premier Combes sub- | mitted in support of his proposition on | the ground that the report did not pro- | pose any means of assuring an existence | | to the members of the religious congre- | gatlons, whom It was unjust, sald the speaker, to thus throw on the streets, many among them being seventy years of age. The Chamber, however, refused to | listen to the appeal and Abbe Gayraud | | finally withdrew his motion. | M. Lerolle’s speech was an elaborate | history of the role the religlous orders had piayed in French history, to the glory | of which, contended M. Lerolle, they had | greatly contributed. The republic was | trying to deprive the monks of the means of living and force them to starvation | or expatriation. | The Republicans, continued the speaker, | to-day were following the example of the | first republic. They had no other am- bitlon than that of satisfying party ven- geance. If the majority refused to admit | discussion on the question and decided | the serles of questions which concerned | separate congregations by a single votc, refusing authorization to all congrega- | tions, liberty would be endangered. While | this ‘sllence was enforced on -the Con- | servative members of the Chamber it would force them to appeal to the entire | country and that appeal would not be | definitive so long as France contained any | Just men with bold tongues. ATTACK BY BARTHOU. | M. Lerolle’s remarks refer to the pro- | cedure which the Republicans propose to adopt in dividing the congregations into | three groups and refusing to allow the| authorization for each congregation to be | discussed separately.
