French Leaders.ToId
To Devise Program
To End Cabinet Crisis
BY The Asseeioied Press

PARIS, June 19.-President
Vincent Auriol sharply told
Frances political leaders today
to put aside their jealousies and
pickering and map out an agreed
program which will bring an end
to the country's 30-day cabinet
crisis.
The President acted after the
National Assembly had thrown
out his fourth candidate for the
job-Radical Socialist Andre
Marie-early this morning. Mr..
Marie got only 272 votes, far
short of the 314 needed for in
vestiture. Paul Reynaud, Pierre
Mendes-France and Georges
Bidault had been defeated before
him.
The President, largely a fig
urehead who usually acts only as
a moderator, called in 20 of the
most influential deputies in the
National Assembly and bluntly
told them they must work out a
solution among themselves.
He said continuation of the
crisis is running the risk of
. damaging the Republic and
weakening France both in the
French union and the world"
Communists Excluded.
In the group he assembled
were all the Premiers since the
war, men who have been nomi-
mated for the job but turned
down by the National Assembly,
and heads of the political parties.
Only the Communists were ex-
cluded.
After the verbal dressing down,
President Auriol directed the II
former Premiers and defeated
candidates to sit down around
a table and draw up a program,
in cooperation with the parties.
When the program is completed,
the President said he would then
name the man to put it in
effect.
In the group ordered to ham,

Rene Mayer, Andre Marie,
Georges Bidault, Rene Pleven,

Roses Solve Many Problems

Roses will fit In with practi-
cally any garden scheme and
each year more and more
gardeners are relying on this
versatile flower to solve many
functional landscaping problems.
Not only do roses solve land
scaping problems, but during the
warm months they supply an
almost unending source of cut
flowers for the house. Planning
now will do much to determine
the colorful results later this
spring and summer.
Nursery catalogues offer de-
tailed descriptions of each va
riety and there is a rose to suit
personal taste and the require
ments Of every gardener. Pur-
chasing quality plants is, of
course, a prime requisite for OBJ
tanning successful results. The
safest course is to follow the
advice of leading nurserymen.
One Of the best assurances of
quality Is the All-America Rose
Selection symbol in the cata-
logue. Every rose bearing this
label has won the highest award
in American horticulture after

Cabbage. broccoli, and head
lettuce plants may go into the
ground as soon as it can be
prepared. The same applies to
early potatoes, peas and onion
sets. Many gardeners took adj
vantage of favorable weather a
couple Of weeks ago and are now
wondering what is going to hap
pen. In well-drained soil the
seed will seldom suffer loss even
when planted in late February.
In water-logged soils, early
SowingS are likely to result in
uneven stands. Seed treated
with a protector always give
better returns.
March Goth Is generally con-
sidered the season when spring
planting of trees and shrubs
should start: of course. many are
well along with such work.
Those who have not started
should not delay. Late plant
ings usually have top growth
without adequate root growth
and seldom turn out salts
factorily.
If the weather continues mild,
removal of the mulches should
be Speeded so as not to have too
much soft new growth. Keep
the mulch material handy so
that it can be spread over the
plants if aging weather
seems likely. This applies espe-
cially to the strawberries - to
lose the flower buds is to lose a
crop of fruit.
The pruning Of rose bushes
should be completed as soon as
possible. Protect the cut enos
of pruned branches with a thick
coating of tree-dressing, asbes-
toS cement, or some other ma
terial. The Saw-fly (cane-borer)
enters the canes at such cuts and
tunnels through them for a con-
siderable distance. Infected
canes soon die and the entire
plant may be lost.

Incident Stirs Tension
In Argentina and Uruguay
By he As.oeiuted Pres.

BUENOS AIRES, Nov. IL
Relations between Argentina
and Uruguay have taken a turn
for the worse after several years
of increasing tension.
The latest incident is a charge
by Uruguay that Manuel Fabal,
captain of an Argentine boat,
signed an admission that he tried
to smuggle gold. Mr.. Fabal says
Uruguay customs authorities
seized him and forced him to
sign a statement admitting guilt.
He says he is not guilty.
Argentine newspapers are de-
manding that the government
halt all shipping to Uruguay be-
cause of the incident.
Basically the tension between
the two countries has been
caused by Argentine exiles who
live in Montevideo and freely
agitate against the regime of
President Juan D. Peron.
Argentina withdrew her am
bassador last year and Uruguay
has had no ambassador in
Buenos Aires since January.
