Alfonso's Flight Contrast to Overthrow by French Bourbons

Marie Antoinette, Gay and Frivolous, Went to Her Death Haughtily. Th;s it the third article in Milton Bronner’t senes of Are articles, telling of famous Bourbons, whose monarrhial rule in Europe for several centuries has been ended by the exile from Spain of Alfonso XIII. BY MILTON BRONXER NEA Service Writer The recent peaceful revolution in Spain, which resulted in King Alfonso giving up his throne, is in marked contrast to the days of the French revolution, when a wild populace sent Louis XVI and Queen Marie Antoinette to the guillotine. Louis and Marie were Bourbons, as is Alfonso. Their autocratic and tyrannical policies helped bring on the French revolution, while Alfonso, sensing the democratic movement in Spain, used all his skill and conciliatory tactics to avoid losing his throne. Fate decreed that Marie Antoinette should be thrust into an environment entirely alien to her training. She had been taught to love luxury and gaiety. She came upon astonished .France, even then rumbling with discontent, like a symbol of royalty at its worst. Was Fit so Be Queen Louis XVI. fifth of the Bourbon kings, married her because he thought it would strengthen his position in Europe. A daughter of Maria Theresa of Austria, she was fit to be a queen—but not in that age of the rise of democracy. Since the time of King Henry IV, first of the Bourbon kings, nearly 200 years before, the monarchy had become more absolute, more auto- : cratic. Under the three Louis kings the power of the ruler and nobles gradually had increased despite bitter wars. The royal house and the nobility were enormously rich: the common people were distressingly poor. “The poor have no bread,” Marie Antoinette was informed. “Then let them eat cake,” she said gaily. King Was Weak, Timid Her king was weak. He wanted to do right, but could not. He wanted to curb his impetuous queen, but was timid. Often the queen scorned the rules ! of royal etiquette and convention j and moved.her court from Versailles ! to Trianon. There, far into the I night, she danced and gambled and sang. Such entertainment cost great sums. The nobles followed like sheep. Marie Antoinette wasn’t beautiful. A too-high forehead and a rather long face precluded that. But her high coloring, her bright blue eyes, her ready smile and her flair for a neatly-turned phrase gave her the gift of personality. She rapidly became unpopular with the masses, as affairs of state were moving toward a crisis. Became More Extravagant Marie Antoinette apparently was not aware of what was happening. She was a spoiled child, incapable of grasping the meaning of events. She became wilder and more extravagant. Her clothes blazed with diamonds. When the king protested she laughed and replied: “I’ll only be young once!” When the noble deputies and the deputies of the Third Estate asked for reforms the king declared innovations were dangerous. Undoubtedly his decision was influenced by Marie. That decision may have changed the entire course of human history. Had the king yielded the revolution might have been averted. She began now to take life more seriously—but too late. Affairs rushed to their inevitable climax. The bastile w r as taken by the maddened populace. The Third Estate achieved victory after victory. At last in 1792 royalty succumbed. The unbroken reigns of Bourbon of more than two centuries was ended. Dies With Haughty Smile Marie, the king and the rest of the royal family were shut up in the Temple. Louis XVI, fearing the worst, was calm. Marie was haughty, proud. Outside the tumbrels were rumbling along the street, taking heads to the hungry guillotine. The day came. The king and Marie were hustled into a tumbrel. She sat with her back to the driver, disdainfully ignoring the mob. At last they reached the guillotine. The king died first, the roll of drums drowning his last words. Marie stepped out of the cart. Her head was erect. Her blue eyes flashed. Something like a contemtuous smile was on her lips. She walked proudly to the guillotine, calmly adjusted her coiffure—and the weighted knife came down.

He was released on parole when Governor Harry G. Leslie called the farm and told officials that the incident for which Hauk was confined was “a mistake” and that Hauk was only putting a bandage on the girl’s leg. Parole papers set out that he had not had a fair trial. The Lake count ytrial judge objected to this and colled on the Governor, pointing out that Hauk had pleaded guilty to the delinquency charge. So Superintendent Ralph Howard and two trustees went into conference with the Governor and changed the reasons for the parole. Hauk remains at liberty. The incident for which he was convicted is alleged to have occurred on a picnic with high school boys and girls.

BY WALLACE ACRROLL United Press SUIT Correspondent LONDON, May 2.—The annual threat of world-wide violences in international labor's celebration of May day was safely passed today except In Portugal where disturbances assume da serious character. A survey showed demonstrations —some peaceful and some violent—on every continent, with Moscow’s great parade and demonstration at Red square setting a pace far in advance of any other country. Except in the new republic of Spain, where an imposing but quiet demonstration occurred in Madrid and a gun fight, killing one and wounded a dozen, in Barcelona, the manifestations were closely restricted and lacked enthusiasm. Three persons were killed in Cuba demonstrations. Two were killed in Lisbon and a dozen others injured in an outbreak which was considered political in character due to recent revolutionary moves in Portugal. A socre were injured in several clashes among Communists. Fascists and police in Germany and five were injured in a clash in Warsaw, Poland Literally thousands were arrested in various European, far eastern and Central American cities, but most of them were released within a few hours. The London demonstrations threatened to become violent at one time, but heavy police guards, charging demonstrators in Hyde Park, quickly suppressed the outbreaks. A few suffered minor injuries, Birmingham and in Ireland.
