 Technically, the creation of q "coalition," De Facto fovernment Is not considered in the presidents latest move.
 The coalition governmental or European nations, notably of Great Britain, that have functioned from time to time since tho war, have been the outgrowths of parliament tary conditions in which the bal- ance of power was so divided thot. without majority. no single party could maintain It's control.
 President Hoover's call to Gov Roosevelt for consultation has in mind. apparently, nly the fact that whatever commitments must be made now will have their rcfiec- ton in subsequent foreign poll cies of the incoming adrninistra- ton.
 An attempt to provide perman- cnt remedy has been made in the Norris lame duck amendment to the constittuoin, now in the pro- cess of being ratified by state legislatureg. This amendment would move the inaugural date back from March to January 20. It Is expected to be ratified dur ing the winter and will be In ef- feet when the coming term or Gov Roosevelt expires.
