Last January British-born Rev. Thomas Frederick Rutledge Beale of St. Paul, Minn, went to court seeking U. S. citizenship. He had refused to promise to bear arms for the U. S.-prime requisite-because he believes that the Kellogg-Briand Peace Pact has effectively outlawed war (TIME, Jan. 16). Last week Alien Beale's application was finally refused.

Chéron was a national figure, a sort of Norman Coolidge, invincibly bourgeois. As Finance Minister he outlasted Premier Poincaré, carried on under Premier Briand, then under Premier Tardieu. When the latter fell (TIME, Feb. 24, 1930) Papa Chéron was found to have left in Jean Frenchman's long, woolen sock a treasury surplus of 19 billion francs...
