dent of the republic during the WorlQ
War, today constituted his fourth

The cabinet is composed exclusively
of political veterans, including, with
NJ. Poincare,' six former premiers. All
the others have been cabinet mem
bers before, with the exception OF the
labor minister, and he is son of the
late President Fallieres.
After visiting the Elysee Palace to
inform President Doumergue of his
success, NJ. Poincare said to the news
paper men:
1--WE wanted to form a cabinet OF
the largest national union in which
all parties would be represented. with
out taking account too closely of the
representation of groups. We have
tried to fulfill our task in the most
high-minded spirit possible.
Finds No Difficulty.
He added that he had found no diff
ficulties in his path, because he In
sisted upon forming the cabinet with
out regard to personal preferences
He is holding an informal cablnet
meeting at his home this afternoon
and expects to present the new min
listers to the President this evening.
The premier announced that. at the
same time the new cabinet faced the
Chamber of Deputies. next Tuesday
he would introduce his financial BILL
NJ Poincare was loudly cheered by
q crowd outside the Elysee Palace as
he left after seeing the President.

dition to his other duties he would
take over the ministry of devastated
regions. while NJ. Barthou, in addition
to acting as minister of justice, would
take care of the affairs of AlSace-
Lorraine.
One of NJ. Poincares principal cares
will be what he regards as an honest
and practical settlement of inter-
allied debts. Both NJ. Herriot, the re-
tiring premier, and NJ. de Monzie his
minister of finance, hinted in the
Chamber of Deputies that their in

national wealth, notably, as M. de
Monzie specified, on the Alsatian
potash mines. 1t Is understood NJ.
Poincare shares this view.
In regard to debts, Luciene Shas-
sagne, chief editor of the Journal, to-
day quotes from a letter he received
recently from NJ. Poincare:
THE difficulty of the transfer be-
tween France and America will make
money payments so often impossible
that in my opinion it is necessary
to anticipate having recourse for a
large part to payments in kind If one
desires to form anything but q pro-
gram which will prove illusory and
consequently dangerous for both
countries.
Police Save Foreigners.
Police reserves had to be called out
last night on the boulevards to pro-
tect American and English tourists
in a recrudescence of anti-foreign
mob sentiment
Seeing Paris" busses filled with
tourists were jeered and the situation
became so threatening that the oc-
cupants of two of them got out.
When, however. two other attempt
ed to drive through the throngs
which barred the streets the police
were forced to go to the rescue OF
several American and English tour
lists against whom the demonstra-
