CAIRO, Egypt, June 21.-The new
cabinet of King Fuad, headed by Is

suspend Parliament, without going be-
fore it for a vote Of confidence.
The decision will be communicated
to both Chamber and Senate at Mon

confidence would have been futile be-
cause of an overwhelming Wafdist ma
jority. which Is near an open break
with the crown.
The new premier is a member Of
the "Ittehadist" or Kings party.
In retiring Parliament, Ismail Sidky
Pasha has done the very thing to
prevent which the undefeated govern
ment of Mustapha Nehas Pasha re-
signed. Nehas sought to protect the
Egyptian constitution by two bills
which would make any minister SUI
spending Parliament liable to life i'm

listed today, in which observers be-
