DELCASSE WILL
STAY IN OFFICE
YIELDS TO SOLICITATIONS OF
M. L0UBET
HE IS ASSURED OF SUPPORT
Foreign Minister'S Friendship for the
United States Has Always Been
Msrked-strong Regard for
General Porter
HE IS ASSURED OF SUPPORT
BY Aesoclated Press.

BY Associated Press.
PARIS, April 22.-Yelding to the per-
sonal solicitations and representations
Of President Loubet and the leaders Of
the government that his retirement
would be a serious matter at this time,
M. Delcasse today advised Premier
Rouvier that he would withdraw his
resignation as foreign minister. This
was after strong assurances had been
made to NJ. Delcasse that the ministry
would support his foreign policy.
During the conference today between
the president and NJ. Rouvier and NJ.
Delcasse, the latter said he would re-
tain the portfolio of foreign affairs
only in case the entire cabinet approved
of his foreign policy. which he would
carry out according to his views.
NJ. Delcasse's staying in the cabinet
is expected to result in firmer atti-
tude toward Germany than heretofore
has been shown The foreign minis
ter's policy has been to give Germany
adequate assurances that her interests
In Morocco would be treated the same
as those of the rest of the world but
after making these approaches he did
project concerning Morocco at the die
tation of Germany.
1t is said that some member of the
cabinet shares the view that grave
issue with Germany might result from
too firm an nsistence on the French
Moroccan policy, and NJ. Rouvier is
also credited with the desire not to have
the Moroccan issue drift into dangerous
complications. Only the Socialists and
Radicals openly expressed this view IA
the chamber of deputies, but the more
influential sentiment was that imme-
diately surrounding NJ. Delcasse. He
felt, therefore, that it was useless to
proceed without the strong support Of
his colleagues representing the govern
ment and if a temporizing policy with
Germany was desired some one else
should assume the responsibility. Con-
sequently his offer to resign was inter
preted as a triumph for Germany,
whereas. his determination to remain is
interpreted as a check to German de-
signs.
The strong friendship of NJ. Delcasse
for the United States is everywhere
recognized among the American officials
here. His relations with Ambassador
Porter have been peculiarly close. Only
recently Nj. Delcasse remarked that he
until he also retired. Last week Gen.
Porter gave large oil portrait of him
self to NJ. Delcasse as a mark of his
esteem.

something even Of misgiving. My con-
ception partakes less Of the calm and
kingly, and seeks to present the man
acquainted not alone with sorrow, but
even with physical want. We have too
nearly idealized the latter feature out
of our reading the Christ story; but in
my mind the conviction is firmly
rooted that Jesus in his life and
ministration had to encounter and to
suffer under the false standards and
tests of an economic and social en-
vironment that was in essence though
not in detail fair counterpart of what
such an individual would find today
in any city of America or of the world"
