BELIEVE CRISES
FRENCH GOVT, ARE
ARE NOW PASSED

Paris, June 4.-(By A. P)-The
ministerial crisis and the presidential
crisis are now considered over as a
result of the invitation sent today
by President Millerand to Paul
Painleve, president of the chamber,
and CASTOR Doumergue, president of
the senate, to call on him tomorrow
morning for a consultation in regard
to the formation Of a ministry to
succeed that of Raymond Poincare..
It is expected that the presidents
of the chamber and senate will con-
fine themselves to the suggestion
that Edouard Herriot, leader of the
Radical party, is the logical man to
form the new cabinet and that the
presidential issue will only come up
when NJ. Millerand, acting on their
advice. will ask NJ. Herriot to come
to the Elysee Palace.
M. Heriot has thus far kept his
own counsel regarding the answer
he will make to the invitation to
form a ministry
Many pariamentarians believe
that NJ. Herriot will make use of the
liberty given him by the! radical
group and will accept the mission to
form a ministry and then will ap-
pear before the chamber. leaving 1t
to parliament to refuse to deal with
the president of the republic by re-
fusing to give the new cabinet vote
of confidence.

Direct Word From Chief Ex-
ecutive Describes Type of
Man He Desires-Does Not
Want Any Recognition of
Insurgent Wing of Party
I Leaders Discuss Secretary
= And Former Illinois Gov
ern0r to Exclusion of Others

Cleveland, O., June 4.-(By A. P.)-
. President Coolidge has sent direct word
to the Republican party managers here
describing the type Of man he wants
for running mate.
The presidents word reaffirms the
previous understanding that he wants
a man OF his own political mind and
does not wish the national ticket to
represent an attempt to recognize the
insurgent wing Of the party.
Mr.. Coolidge has told those to whom
he confided his wishes that the vice
presidential candidate should be a man
who could carry an assurance to the
country that, should he succeed to the
presidency. there would be no change
in the fundamental policies of the ad-
ministration.
With this in mind, the party man
ayers. who are carefully making pre-
convention canvass Of availables with
the idea of agreeing on a man who
will be acceptable to the president and
agreeable to the delegates, are contin-
uing to discuss Secretary Hoover and
former Governor Lowden of Illinois
almost to the exclusion Of others who
have been mentioned.
Word from Washington today that
Senator Lafollette would not be for
mally placed in nomination for the
presidency removed one of the last
possibilities for touch of old-fa shion-
ed convention and left nothing in sight
but ratification meeting.
The fact that all members Of the
Wisconsin delegation but one will cast
their votes for the Wisconsin senator
from the floor still barred any posi-
bility that Mr.. Coolidge would be nom-
mated by reclamation. The substitute
platform to be offered by the Wisconsin
delegation will present the only SEM
blance Of a contest.

Clearing the Decks

Washington, June "A legislative
program stripped to ESSENTIALS for the
final days of the present session was
agreed upon today by leaders Of
both parties in congress. Favored
measures Of influential members
we're ruthlessly sacrificed as develop
ments pointed to much Of the time
remaining until adjournment at p.
NJ. Saturday being devoted to speech
es for the record.
Reclamation and naval moderniza-
tion held the right Of way, with farm
relief given a prominent place until
house leaders tonight announced
that they had abandoned hope of en-
acting such legislation at this time.
The only routine business in sight Is
the sl5V,0O0,000 deficiency bill and
some private pension legislation,
which are said to be acted upon by
ths senate.
The problem offered nv Muscle
Shoals was finally solved today when
Senator Underwood, Democrat, Ala
bama, announced an agreement on
the part of supporters of the Ford
bid to discontinue their fight for i'm
mediate consideration in return for
a preferred position on the calendar
of the next session. Unanimous
consent was given to make this ques-
ton the unfinished business next De-
Cember 3.
The program approved provides for
passage, probably tomorrow, in the
house as separate measure of the
reclamation relief bill approved by
the interior department and its con-
sderation in the senate as rider on
the deficiency bill.
TIE insurgent elements in both
houses were understood to have
given a more or less cquivocal agree
ment to the program reserving the
right to register their opinion on
the session as q whole as opportun-
!ty afforded.
