Especial Cable to The Atlanta Journal and

PARIS, March 27.-(By the Asso-'

consented this evening to resume
the premiership which he resigned
yesterday ever a defeat of the min.
istry in the chamber Of deputies.
The premier's task has been facili-
tated by strong reaction in the
chamber from the action taken yes
terday which caused the downfall of
the cabinet. Groups representing
more than 400 deputies, nearly two
thirds of the lower house, have pass
ed resolutions expressing their con-
fidence in the government.
This action, however, is understood
to be insufficient to satisfy M. Pom
care. He wants not only confidence
but also an assurance that the cham

senate pension bills, which careful
figuring done since the crisis came
is declared to show would saddle the

MANY BACK lOWDEN
FOR VICE PRESIDENCY
Former Governor Regarded a.
Strong Possibility if Hoover
Refuses Nomination.
CHOICE STILL UNCERTAIN
Leaders Unwilling to Leave Matter
\ to Delegates Whim.

With the Republican national con-
vention to meet a week from tomor-
row to nominate a candidate for
President and Vice President and
frame a platform, there Is still COM
plete uncertainty as to who is likely
to be nominated for second place on
the national ticket. The suggestion
IL advanced in some quarters that 1t
might be well to withhold arriving at
decision and give the appearance at
least Of letting the delegates choose the
man uninfiuenced by the leaders.
But this course is not likely to be
followed. the practical" politicians
say. The selection Of candidate for
Vice President is regarded as too
important to be left to last minute
hazards. The fact that the candi-
date for the presidency is practically
already nominated, 1T is argued, IN
vests President Coolidge, the pros
pective nominee, with an interest IN
the choosing of his running mate.
The situation is classed as being gSn Siio
ferent from four years ago wnen
there was a spirited contest on TOT
the nomination.
Hoover Rejects PrOffer.
1t has been reported for several
days that the administration was
favorable to the suggestion or the
nomination of Secretary HERBERT
Hoover for second place. Mr.. Hoover,
it can be stated positively. does not
want the nomination and is asking
his friends not to urge him for the
honor. He would be highly accept
able to the business interests of the
country, it is said, but he is reported
to feel that he could render greater
service in his present position. IL IL
were the next Presidents pleasure
to keep him.
Former Gov Frank 0. Lowden or
Illinois is regarded as q strong pos
sibility for second place, in case Mr..
Hoover is successful In putting the
crown aside. Mr.. I.owden Is known
to be disinclined TO have the nomina-
ton, but in the last few days many
friends have urged that he owes il
to his party and his friends to make
sacrifice il one is required OF him.
1t is the belief of these friends that
he would not decline IL nominated.
Gov. Hyde of Missouri is being
urged by his friends on the ground
that Missouri is a close state and

Mr. Longworth, in announcing the

of District measures, both those on

means that practically all measures
before the House District committee
or before any of tho committees of
the House will have been considered
before adjournment, making one Of
the best clean-ups in recent years on

The outstanding measures of in
