French Senate Vote
fspeei.I "a m. paw Work.r,

PARIS, Feb. 22.-By bare major
I ity of 16 votes, Premier Poincare has
cleared the last dangerous hurdle
which threatened to bring down his
government, The cabinet is safe for
the time being.
There was tense excitement in the
senate chamber last night as the vote
on electoral laws was carefully YER
flied before being announced. Poin-
care was palpably nervous. He had
staked the life of his cabinet on the
issue that the senate must not change
the electoral law as voted by the
chamber Of deputies.
The senate had been inclined to
vote certain changes following a re-
port of its committee. The Premier
had said he would resign If the laws
were not passed as they stood. By a
vote of $50 to 1874, the laws were
passed
What saved Poincare was the fact
that the senate did not wish to pre-
cipitate cabinet crisis at the present
time, with the reparations situation
at a delicate stage and renewed down.
fall of the franc threatened.
The vote leaves Poincare with free
hands to push his financing projects
and proceed with the Preparations
question after the experts report.

Wallace Nay Quit;
DiS0grees NTH Cal
on Farmers Relief

WASHINGTON, Feb. 22.-Secre-
tary of Agriculture Wallace today
refused confirmation or denial OF
reports that he was about to resign
from the cabinet as a result of diff
ferences with President Coolidge
over the administrations farm re-
lief program. Wallace's only COM
ment on the report was this state
ment:
II have not resigned
The reports grew out of a split
which developed during the recent
conference here of northwest bank
ers and farmers representatives on
relief measures for wheat farmers
and for banks affected by depres-
sion in the wheat growing states.
President Coolidge endorsed the
Observation-Disclosures bill providing for
fund Of $5O,000,O00 to lend to
farmers to enable them to diversity
crops. Wallace and some of the
northwestern farmers thought he
should also have approved the Nor
ris-Sinclair bill creating an expert
corporation to dispose Of surplus
farm products abroad. His failure
to do so caused trump convention"
of supporters Of the Norris Sinclair
bill in which Wallace Joined.

"The attorney general went to the
