try succumbed at dawn
this morning to what the
premier called "incompat-
ibility Of political tempera-
ment" of the groups which
since the success of the
radical-socialist coalition in
the elections of 1924 have
governed France.
That incompatibility, which mani
tested itself particularly in financial
questions whenever the chamber was
called upon to vote new taxes, was
no secret, but the overthrow of the
government was surprise, because
one thing on which all groups in
the chamber had agreed was that
there should be no cabinet crisis
now.
Brands eighth ministry which is
thought not to be his last, came into
power on November 27-28, and con-
tinued it's existence a little over
three months, while the average life
of a French cabinet is nine months.
The cabinet suffered repeated crisis,
due to divisions within itself, as we'll
as divisions in its parliamentary ma"
jority. The radical members of the
official family threatened to walk
out just before the holidays, but
changed their minds when the pre-
mier said he would see them go
without despair. There is talk in the
lobbies that NJ. Caillaux will be
recommended by M. BRAND to form
a new ministry made UP so as to
cater to the mpjority in the center
. of the chamber comprising national
lists and radicals on the left and the
national bloc on the right.

eral Dan Moody of Texas, announced
for the governor of Texas, subject
to the democratic primary.
Announcement of Moody's candi,

of whether American Ambassador
Sheffield had been thrust aside by

the determining force in the nego-

Charles B. Warren, whose nomination
to be attorney general was rejected
by the senate year ago.
