Jones, Federal Loan All~ ministrator. . 0 Hopkins told + the President - by letter that he was quitting the cabl+ net to recover his health. He has been suffering from a stomach ail- ment for nearly two years. The President, in reply, said the resignation would take effect at a date to be determined later. "You may resign the office--only the office--and nothing else," Mr, Roosevelt said. "Our friendship will and must go on as always." | Eire Press Restricted By Rigid Censorship Dublin, Aug. 26.--Rigid new cen- sorship regulations * were enforced in Eire on Saturday, making impos- sible the publication of war news without the Government's permis- sion. Matters relating to hostilities on land, sea or in the air between the fighting forces of any state must be passed by the censor.

Madame Tabouis, Europe's Doro- thy Thompson and the only journal- ist in the world mentioned by name --and in highly unflattering terms --Dby Hitler, arrived in Toronto Sat- urday on her way to the conference of the Canadian Institute of Eco- nomics and Politics at Geneva Park. She was held up at the border until the immigration service tele- phoned Ottawa and arrangements were made. | Genevieve Tabouis, | close friend of many nations, bases her British victory on three facts. Courage Indomitable One, the indomitable British cour. age, secondly on the unavoidable participation of United States in the war within the next six months, and thirdly on the revolution in France during the coming winter. She stayed in England a month {after her escane from France on a | British battleship in June, and speaks of what she saw. The ten- sion in United States and the trend of thought she hac studied since her | arrival there late July. Of the French people she speaks: | "France will revive. We are the most individualistic of all At the moment we are numbed but it will not last, France will revolt In the middle of the winter. then they will have realized that there is no work, no hope, no money. Full Of Hope "There is a campaign against England already strongly started. The Germans will tell the French to blame the English for their hung- er. But the French are too intelli- | gent for that. not be England's fault. of hope." Slight, tall, with grey hair and sharp grey eves, pretty in a striking way, talléred clothes, except for huge rings on her very small fingers, and a demure white ruffle about her neck. She emphasizes her words with strong gestures, pulling at her lower lip when she paustes to think. She talks fast and convincingly. "As long as Petain government re- mains, Gamelin will be safe" she declared. "Gamelin lived in a com~ who is a leading figures in I am full German arrival. Then he moved to his house in the country. It will people by endangering him. I can give you the assurance that as long as Petain remains in power, he, and the rest, will be safe. To Satisfy Public "The purpose of the trials," she stated, "is to give satisfaction to the | French public opinion, and secondly, to give satisfaction to Germans who are always arguing about the causes and the beginning of the war." "But nothing will happen to the people arrested -- as long as Petain ' | government, remains, Georges Mandel? He Is considered a traitor because he tried to negotiate with after the French government had signed the armistice. Ah, before the war he was the man, he used to know the secrets of every one in France!" Madame Tabouis herself had the unique experience of seeing declara- tions of her arrest in al] the French papers, including the ones to which she herself contributes. "The gov- ernment is going to arrest Madame Genevieve Tabouis , . ." She read in Prench from a ghostly paper she pretended to hold in her hand, for they press in Toronto on Saturday. "It is a strange feeling," she laughed. Urged Preparedness The reason for her arrest was Hitler's extreme hatred of her. She has written for years about the Ger- man preparation for war. "Every day," she spid, "I hammered in through tmy paper, "Prepare for war, France, prepare for war. The Yeople did not like it. I had direct Information from Germany--it was not believed. In 1939 when Hitler 'made his May 1 speech in Berlin, he spoke of me. "There are in Europe." he said, "many warmong- ers and the Head of them is Madame Tabouls. She is writing lies about me." TI kept writing until the day Germans entered France. "In May 'T gave Paul Renoir the plans of the German attack on Paris. TI had it from the same source as the news of the Anchluss which had reached me first. He did not believe me," she shrugged her shoulders. Many Exposes During her vivid career, Genevieve Tabouis has "scooped" the news of the advance of German military preparations and the likelihood of a Czechoslovakian crisis about March 11, 1939. The Germans marched in on March 12. She ex- posed in her paper the plan of France's Premier Laval and Brit- ain's Minister of Foreign Affairs, Sir Samuel Hoare, to partition Eth. iopia as a means of averting the which resulted in thelr resignation. She also announced in January, 1937, that German troops had landed in Spanish Morocco, an article that gave away Hitler's plans on the They know it wil! | fortable flat in Paris right up to the | country and sent the French fleet to the Moroccan coast.

Robert MacFarland is charged with murdering the 18-month-old | bride of two weeks, Alice Archer MacFarland, on the night of July 25.

He declared that | it had been taken from the Trent | River at the point where the child's : body had been found. "It was the only stone of its kind in the river there," he said, "and | was noticeable because it has sev- eral clearly visible scratches. It is not a river stone because its sur- face is not coated." A smaller, round stone was also entered and described as "a river stone" by the chief, because it was coated with | river vegetation and discolored. Consented to Marriage | Capt. T. D. Ruston, inspector for the Children's Aid Society, in Hast- | and Belleville, was called to the stand. He was not called in the first hearing against | Mrs. MacFarland. Inspector Ruston | told of a visit of Robert MacFar- | land to his office on July 5 in re- sponse to the inspector's request. "At that time he asked for per- | mission to marry a girl, Alice! Archer, who had been a ward of | our society," Capt. Ruston testified. | "I asked him if he knew that Miss | Archer had a child, and he sald he did. He gave me to understand he | intended to take the girl and the | baby to live with his parents in Frankford. Consent was given to | the marriage on July 6, and I learn- ed from the mother, Mra Martha MacFarland, that the wedding had taken place on July 12." Asked in cross-examination if he | had been quite satisfied with the | character and background of Ro- bert MacFarland before he married | Alice Archer, Inspector Ruston res plied in the affirmative. Last witness called by the Crown prior to the adjournment was Mrs, Martha MacFarland, mother of the accused. She declared that on July 25 her son and his young bride had been "normal". "On the 26th when they came down to breakfast in the morning, | the radio was playing and they both seemed quite happy," the witness | said. They had returned home for lunch, Police arrested the pair at their work at 4 o'clock the same afters noon. REFUGEE REGIME PLANS TO RESIG Vichy, France, Aug. 26--The refu- ges Boligian government of Premiep Hubert Pierlot plans to resign, ine formed sources here sald Saturday, since jt is impossible to function und2r existing circumstances. The Premier and most members of his Cabinet, which attempted to carry on from unoccupied France after King Leopold's surrerder, pre- viously offered their resignations but the King refused to accept them.
