Overthrow of Siam’* Monarchy Laid to Economic Depression * * * * ♦ ♦ Prajadhipok, Last of Absolute Monarchs, Ousted for Inability to Find Solution to World Problem. Economy Cuts Antagonized Army.

While the King and hi* queen, Rambai-Barni, are held a* prisoners by the revolutionaries, report* come from authentic *ource* at Bangkok to the effect that it was Prajadhipok’* dismissal of several highly-paid army functionaries, a* a feature of his economy program, that precipitated the uprising. It is further asserted that the object of the revolution is to abolish tbe absolute monarchy and to establish a constitutional government with Prajadhipok still king, but shorn of much of his power. This was but anticipating the aim of the king himself, for the ruler of Siam is known to have been working towards the establishment of a government of the people by the people for sometime. So Prajadhipok proved his sincerity by at once endorsing the ahn of the insurgent*. Educated at Eton, England, it is hard to discern anything Oriental about Siam's king, that is in mannerisms or viewpoint. Last year, when he visited the United State* for an eye operation, he took a keen interest in American method* of business and government and since his return to Siam, has striven to give hi* country t!\e benefit of the experience gained upon that occasion.

WASHINGTON—Since the de-> monos depression reared its uglyhead and drove prosperity into hiding around that corner, it has been blamed for many domestic, national and international catas-| trophes. The latest black mark chalked up against the slump is! the revolution in Siam and thel overthrow of King Prajadhipok’s absolute monarchy. For more than a year Siam has' been feeling the acute pinch of the ! economic crisis that has the world • in its clutches and the King’s inability to cope with it has been a • sad blow to the prestige he enjoyed in the eyes of his people. For Prajadhipok is not only the ruler! of Siam, but is also the spiritual! loader, believed to possess almost divine powers. When the last budget failed to balance, Prajadhipok. instead of uttering a magic formula calculated to put the ship of state on an even keel, made the mistake of! coming down from his Olympus and appealing to the common peo-i pie. telline them that increased taxation and drastic economies were necessary if Siam was ever to get another look as prosperity. The King himself began the economy drive by dismissing a num! er of highly-paid army functionaries. thereby taking the first stop off his throne. For it is sound statesmanship to keep the army on one's side if one wants to continue ruling. Only a short time ago, Prajadhipok convoked a meeting of army officers in an attempt to justify the drastic cuts, and the fact that he failed to placate the officers is credited with being the reason for the revolutionary conspiracy. The aim of the revolutionaries was the immediate abolishment of the absolute monarchy and the establishment of a constitutional government under the figure head of King Prajadhipok. who with Queen Rambai-Barni. was held prisoner by the rebels. On receiving the demands of the

insurgents, Prajadhipok at once endorsed the plan, for it merely anticipated the action he has been desirous of taking ever sinte he ascended the throne. Through an absolute monarchy, the last remaining one in the world. Siam's ruler is a liberal-minded man who impressed all who have come in-| to contact with him as being very much in earnest In working for the welfare of his country. He was very popular with his people, who, until the present upset, had prospered under his rule until Siam was spoken of as "the happiest country in the world." When the King was in the United States last year to undergo an operation for the removal of cataracts from his eyes, he frequently stated that he wished his people to be self-governing. Since his return to his native land he seemed to have been making rapid strides in that direction. Waiving ids right to he the sole arbiter in the destiny of his country, he gave the people a voice in its government and has often expressed the hope! that his death would see a government based upon the Western! system. Prajadhipok was educated at; Eton, exclusive English public! school. It was there he absorbed ■ much of his Western Ideas, which he in turn inculcated in Queen! Rambai-Barni to such an extent! that she now seldom wears native: costume, preferring the hablli-l rnents of the Occident. The population of Siam is about! 11.000,000. It has compulsory military service, every male being obliged to serve twor years in the army or navy on reaching the age :of 20. The peace strength of the army is approximately 20,000, and the navy is composed of 21 vessels,' which, however are useful only for policing purposes. Siam remained neutral in the 1 World War until 1917, when it declared war on the side of the Allies. A Siamese volunteer force was sent to France, but served

chiefly as an aviaHon unit. King Prajadhipok ascended the throne in 1925 on the death of his brother. King Rama, who left no male child. He showed a genius for government from the start and was so immersed in the affairs and well-being of his country that even when in the United States he conducted the affairs of his king dom by long-distance telephone from the home of Mrs. Whitelaw Reid, at Purchase. N. Y.. where he was a guest while convalescing from his eye trouble. o Civil War Shrapnel Removed Grantt Pass.
