She also worked secretly for Austria, sometimes to the detriment of France. With the taking of the Bastile by revolutionists in 1789, she realized her peril but could not persuade the king to leave Paris. Her husband was executed, and she herself was led to the guillotine on Oct. 16, 1793. Her courage at her trial won the admiration even of her enemies.

Too Many Seek Personal Gain In Politics, Rep. Walsh Says
By Richjard L. Taylor United Press Staff Correspondent INDIANAPOLIS, July 22 (UP) A Hoosier member of Congress told Indiana Young Democrats today that too many people in politics sought personal gain. "Too many people in politics think only in terms of getting a beer wholesaler permit or some" sort of a job," said Rep.' John Walsh, D., Anderson, as he opened a two-dy convention ot 2,500 Young Democrats of . Indiana. 1 Walsh, serving as temporary chairman,, also said his party had "dwelt too long on the achievements cf the New Deal." Walsh partly blamed failure oi the Brannan farm plan in the House yesterday on lack of leadership. He also .rapped states' righters in a statement in which he said Democrats "must clean the party lrom ton to bottom of those who have little faith." State Chairman Ira L. HayFrank Murphy Dies
maker also took a verbal crack at the states' righters. "An unholy alliance of ' reactionaries who are Republican fellow travelers have joined with Republicans to sabotage every proposal of President Truman," said Haymaker. "If we tell the people what this" alliance is doing to them we'll have 11 Democratic Congressman' and one Senator from Indiana after the 1950 election." Mayor Al Feeney of Indianapolis, in a welcoming talk, told the Young Democrats that the
most "grievous error" the "senior leaders of the party" could make would be to "disregard the recommendations of Young Democrats."
