THOMAS TO REMAIN
IN FRENCH CABINET
Socialists Deputies Decide Minister
of Munitions Shall Continue
in Post.


PARIS. August socialist deputies
in the chamber decided last night by
vote of Sc to that Albert Thomas
minister of munitions and member of
the war council. shall continue as a
member of the government.
After NJ. Thomas had given his rea-
sons for remaining in Office Jules
Guesde, former member of the cabf-
net, supporting him, pointed out that
in view of recent resolution inviting
socialists to abstain from entering cab
inets which are animated by imperial
list designs, the withdrawal of NJ. Thorn
as might be wrongly interpreted and
give the central powers a pretext to
accuse the French government OF pur-
suing a policy of conquest.
The socialist party met yesterday to
discuss whether it should continue to
authorize NJ. Thomas to remain in that
position. Deputies Grussier and Com
pere Morel also argued in the affirna-
tive, while Deputies Lafont and Lon
auet took the negative side. The dis
cussion lasted the entire day. and at
1880 O'Clock at night no decision had
been reached.
The rules of the unified socialist
party forbid any of the members ac-
cepting offices. The rule was suspended
on patriotic grounds when the war be-
gan, three leading socialists entering
the ministry. Albert Thomas is the
only socialist member in the present
cabinet.
