 Job for Herriot
By M. K. WHITELEATHER

DJ As W
 PARIS, May 28.-Knotty prob lems, left over by the old Cham Der of Deputies and the expiring government of Andre Tardieu, will confront Frances new Cabinet and lower House when they take oyer" early in June.
 There is grief ahead for the in- coming Premier, whoever nc may be. Edouard Herriot, as leader of the largest party in the Cham Der, probably will draw the first invitation to form Cabinet.
 Foreign relations form a pretty puzzle in themselves, but it is the domestic situation that is likely to give the new administration its first headache. A glance a. that explains in large measure the talk of a transitional" Cabinet, to hold office until the new Cham Der gets it's bearings.
 There is, at the top of the list. budget deficit. It is estlmated at from two to nine billion francs, which translates into American money at from $8O,0OO,OO0 to $780, 100000.
 Must Step Warily
 Balancing this involves among other factors, a decrease in the cost of government, and lowering the salaries of public employees is just as ticklish an affair here as in other republics.
 Another tender subject is the social insurance law, the French combination version of unemploy- ment dole, workmen's compensation and old age pensions. Enemies of this statute are asking reylsions to reduce the state's contributions a measure which would not ex- actly appeal to wage earners.
 Foreign affairs can be approach ed only by a path containing the deadly pitfall of possible isolation of France. On all sides the Re- public finds itself confronted With these which, on their face, seem diametrically opposed to French ideas.
 Powers Oppose French
 At Lausanne on June Is, the French delegates to the repara- tions barley meet demands of Ger many, Italy and Great Britain for complete cancellation of repara- tions. The new Legislature must wrestle with possible change in the French policy relative o the war debt owed to the United States.
 Linked with this big question, is the situation of the disarma- ment conference in Geneva. There has developed an almost united front against the French proposal for an international army. There is also on the Italian demand for naval parity.
 The Parliament may be called upon to fit this opposition into the time seasoned French thesis of "se- curity before disarmament"

GARNER MAKES REPLY

WASHINGTON, May 28.-Speak- CT John N Garner, in a formal statement today, assailed President Hoover for his criticism of his re- lief program.
 Speaker Garner denied it was pork barrel legislation"
 The Speaker said the Presidents allusion to his program as pork barrel came with poor grace from one who demanded that Congress cooperate with him in passing the Reconstruction Finance Corporation Act. It is just as logical to refer to that act as a pork barrel for banks, insurance companies nd others. It is not a pork barrel nor can any other program which ex- tends aid at this period of de- pression be termed as such"
