•Paris, April 11 (By Associated
Press ).—The Herriot cabinet is out of
power, overthrown by the senate because
of the charges that under M. Herriot’*
rule the legal limit of the bank note* cir
culation ha* been secretly exceeded, but
M. Herriot’s majority in the chamber of
deputies remains virtually intact.
At a general meeting this morning of
the four groups of left parties forming
the governmental majority since last
May, a resolution was adopted “to con
tinue with unshakable determination the
policies for which the country voted at
the last election." The meeting repre
sented about 340 deputies, consisting of a
good working majority of the chamber.
The Socialists, KM strong, went even one
better when they decided they would sup
port none other than M. Herriot.
The senate declared itself in such un
equivocal manne* the adverse vote being
Kin against 132, that although the r con
sultations of President Doumergue look
ing to the selection of a new premier have
hardly even started, it may be said that
M. Herriot’s return is very unlikely.

EASTER CELEBRATION
AT WINSTON-SALEM
Thousands of Peaplr Will Journey to (he
Twin-CRy Ttomorrow.
<By the Associated Press.)
Winston-Salem, April 11.—Hundreds
of visitors from ail parts of North Caro
lina and many other states had arrived
here late toda)[, to be on hand for the
Moravian Faster celebration* en rly tomor
row morning. More will arrive during
the early evening and tonight. Incom
ing trains today* brought numerous visi
tors, and the eoads to Winston-Salem
were thronged with automobiles.
The annual Moravian Easter service,
which had its qrigin in 1732, when a lit
tle bond of MrVlkvian Christians gather
ed in the hilltop graveyard to celebrate
the Feast of the Resurrection, has grown
to be the largest meeting of the kind in
the world. It makes of Winston-Salem
an annual Mecca and rivals pilgrimage
assemblies of the ages. . There is an
air of solemnity, mingled with a. spirit
of rejoicing, about this service. Bishop
Edward Hondthaier. of the Moravian
Church, stationed in Winston-Salem, said
today that the celebration of Easter by
Moravian Christians would start in the
mountainous heart of Asia, twelvejiours
in advance of its beginning in Winston-
Salem. It will, several hours later,
he said, be’ taken up in Jerusalem, and
then in central and western Europe and,
after that in Winston-Salem. Celebra
tions like this, although much smaller
in magnitude, • will, later, be held in
Australia. ,
Bishop Bondtlialer described the serv
ice as being confined to no continent, no
clime. “It will be held in the ice-bound
Arctic.” he said, "and in file forests of
the torrid zone, and in other places, in
honor of our risen Lord and Savior,
Jesus Christ.”
The Moravian Christiana came from
what is ndw Czecho-Slovakia, in central
Europe*—a little band of persecuted
Christians, seeking liberty and freedom
of thought.”
It is likely that from 20,000 to 30,-
000 ’persons, perhaps more, will witness,
and participate in the early Easter day
Service heCe Tomorrow.
The service will be in progress when
dawn comes. If the skies are clear,
the first rays of the Easter day sun will
sweep across a host of worshippers gath
ered at the Moravian cemetery, assembled
there to celebrate the resurrection of
Jesus.
Though solemn, the Moravian Easter
serviee is not one of gloom. It is an
occasion of gladness. It sarts in front
of the old “Home Church” at 5 o’clock,
each Easter Sunday, aud is completed
in the Moravian graveyard.
“There is no special story connected
with the beginning of this service.” said
Bishop Rondthaler. He added that the
“little band of Moravian Christians”
who gathered for the initial celebration
thought so well of it that they repeated f
it on the following Easter! It then
became a custom, one that has attracted
wide attention and has made Winston- t
Salem, the largest Moravian center per- t
hails in the United States, certainly in i
the South, of peculiar interest at Easter i
time. '
