it here. He was born in Paris February
10, 1859, and was educated for the bar.
He has served in several cabinet po-
sitions, notably as minister of public
works in the BRAND ministry in 19OO,
minister of war in the Poincare cabi-
net of 1912. and as minister of war
in the Viviani ministry until the VI
viani cabinet resigned October 20, 1918.
While the peace with Germany was
being made, President POincare, in
March, 1919, appointed Millerand gov
ernor of Alsace-L Lorraine, Frances re-
gained provinces, and he served in this
position until at the request of Pres
lident Poincare in January last ne ac-
copied the task of forming new cab
met, in which he took the premiership
and ministry of foreign affairs, sue
ceeding Clemenceau.
twenty-five years ago Millerand eX-
pressed the ambition to become pre-
mier of France and President of the
republic. Ten years later he was ex-
pelled from the branch of the Social
| list party that had been electing him
to the chamber of deputies for 10
years. and in another five years he
was officially expelled from the So
cialist party of France. Five years
ago, when minister of war, he was one
| of the chief causes contributing to the
downfall of the Viviani cabinet. Mil
Ierand was so deep in disgrace and
humiliation that it did not seem pos
sible he could ever emerge.
But when the war was won France
wanted "bullheaded' man to rule
the recovered provinces of Alsace and
Lorraine, and Millerand was chosen
for the post. Last January he was
recalled to Paris to be premier-the
first of his ambitions accomplished.
And as premier il was once more
his bullheadedness, the very quality
that caused his deep humiliation in
1915, that brought him the enthusiastic
support of the French nation.
He insisted stubbornly and passion
ately that peace should bring France
the fruits of victory Lloyd George
could not wheedle him; Wilson could
not drive him; ,Giolitti could not bluff
him and Lenine and Trotzky could not
scare him. So, when Deschanel was
forced to resign the presidency, Mil
lerand was triumphantly elected Pres
ident of the republic. and the second
of his ambitions was realized.
"Down with Dictatorship" shouted
the Socialist Deputy Upry, as he cast
his vote against Millerand in the bal
loting for President.
1t looks as If President Alexandra
Millerand of France has prepared a
program that will either eliminate him
from public life or make him a Pres
ident with large powers.

There was no election by the French
people. A caucus of senator's and dep
uties nominated Millerand. Members
of parliament went to the ancient
chateau at Versailles and chose Mil
lerand eleventh President of the re-
public. He received 500 votes out of
a total of S72. The complete vote was :
Alexandra Millerand, sos; Gustave De-
10y, Socialist deputy from Lille. De-
partment du Nord, co.; scattering, 20;
blank, 10S.
Those members who cast their votes
fed Socialists. Millerand had infiict-

Gisappointments, from the time he had
been the first Socialist to accept a
portfolio in bourgeois ministry, away
back in 1899, until the other day, when

STA. m M
These Socialists professed to fear
the result Of larger responsibilities
projected by Millerand." Anyway, di-
rect representation of all classes of
society and the vesting of executive
powers in the President of the republic
are the salient features in President
Millerand's plan to revise the French
constitution, which is evoking a storm
of controversy in France.
Politics." said Millerand, in a re-
t.f
cent speech, "are a danger to the ma
ton placed as they are. without check
or hindrance. Parliament today does
not represent the people of France,
but merely the great political inter
ests. The President of the republic
has no actual power, neither has the
senate. tss
To remedy this state of affairs Mil
lerand proposes the wholesale re-
modelling of the constitution. The prin-
cipal points of his proposals are:
1. The President of the republic to
became President in fact as well as
in name; to be accorded powers sim
