POINCARE’S STRENGTH. PASSAGE OF RELIGIOUS ACTS RADICAL OPPOSITION INEFFECTUAL. (United Press Association —By Electric Telegraph Copyright.) (Australian Press Association.) Received 12.5 p.m., to-day. PARIS, March 29. The Press to-day comments, favourably on the adoption by the Chamber of Deputies of nine projects known as Religious Acts, which are generally hailed as a triumph which may break the force of groups opposing M. Poincare’s Government. The Press asserts that the anti-clerical attitude of the Radical and Socialist opposition has proved ineffectual against the sound majority the P'riine Minister now commands. It is predicted that in contrast to the recent shaky position of Cabinet the passage of the Religious Acts will demonstrate that the force of the opposition no longer exists as a possible check to the administration. Most of the comment describes the Radical campaign against Cabinet as belonging to the regime which has already passed in France and which now properly ‘‘should exhibited among curios of waxworks.”
