While the King and his queen, Rambai-Barni, are held as prisoners by the revolutionaries, reports come from authentic sources a* Bangkok to the effect that it was Prajadhipok’s dismissal of several highly-paid army functionaries, as a feature of his economy program, that precipitated the uprising. It is further asserted that the object of the revolution is to abolish the absolute monarchy and to establish a consti tutional government with Prajadhipok still king, but shorn of much of his power. This was but anticipating the aim of the king himself, for the ruler of Siam is known to have been working towards the establishment of a government of the people by the people for sometime. So Prajadhi pok proved his sincerity by at once endorsing the am of toe insurgents. Educated at Eton, England, it is hard to discern anything Oriental about Siam’s king, that is in mannerisms or viewpoint. Last year, when he vis ited the United States for an eye operation, he took a keen interest in American methods of business and government and since his return to Siam, has striven to give his country the benefit of the experience rained upon that occasion.
