In Paris the Chamber of Deputies debated government decrees exempting religious orders from dissolution laws.

John Lemotine withdrew as a ministerial candidate amid pressure. A sensational incident aboard the Marseille express was reported with two prisoners fighting over a revolver, one stabbed, motive unclear. Father Didon spoke in support of his Paris pulpit campaign and renewal. Berlin radios noted Russian diplomatic funds and a list of Russian diplomats in Berlin.
