A substantial majority in Parliament
for the new government, when the ques-
ton of confidence comes up, was pre-
dicted by experienced parliamentarians.
Poincarc was given n hearty ovation
cept the Socialists and Communist
group, numbering sixty eight. Deputy
Marcel Cachin and Alexandra Blanc
were the only ones to interrupt the
Premier, NJ. Cachin shouting the
charge that Poincare was responsible
for the war. But this charge met with
shouts from the other deputies: GO
sit in the Reichstag" The interrupt
ers' shouts were drowned In the ap-
plause which followed.
Former Premier BRAND resumed his
old seat in the Chamber, and applauded
the new Premier along with the others.
There were more than 500 Deputies
present, one of the largest sittings in
several years.

officially settled today, when he was
unanimously chosen by his party, the
Socialist Republicans, as a member OF
the Foreign Affairs Commission of the
Chamber, upon which he sat before be-
coming Premier. Paul Painlcve with
drew from the commission to make room
upon 1t for BRAND.
The conditions Premier Poincare in
sists must be accepted or rejected before
! France will take part in discussions at
Genoa, as stated in the resolution
adopted by the Supreme Council at
Cannes, includes the stipulation that
governments of countries desiring for
eign credit must recognize all public
debts and obligations which have been
or may be undertaken or guaranteed by
the state, by municipalities, or by other
public bodies as we'll as the obligations
to restore or compensate foreign inter-
ests for loss or damage caused to them
when property has been confiscated or
withheld"
This condition, 80 far az France is
concerned, applies particularly to Rus
sia. The French Government and
French individuals and corporations
hold millions Of dollars worth of bonds
of the old Russian imperial regime,
which the Soviet Government so far
has failed 10 recognize "a
