The Painleve Defeat By FRANK M. SIMON PS Copyright 102 4 by MeC'lurc* N?*w>papt*r Symliralf Washington. Jun?? 24.?Tim fat which overtook the Palnleve rami dacv for president of the French 11?| public is precisely ? the fat** whicfH might befall the MacDonald C.ovein ment in Britain in one of two c<?n-, celvable contingencies, if. by au> i chance the Tories and Liberals could . agree on any common action, or if, the extreme radical faction of Labor I should break away. But the real skill of MacDonald has so far lain I in making no fatal mistake, which would produce a Tory-Liberal wlil ance .to oust him, while he has with! some difficulty to be sure, held h'* I extremists so far. The defeat of Palnleve also car ries a definite warning to Herriot. who has stepped into Polncare's shoes. Herriot quite clearly saw that it was hardly the wise thing to pursue Millerand. His own iti-j clination and Juduraent opposed t\? step, but he was dragged into it 1?> two different forces, by his Socialist allies who have been cunning f*.?r 1 Millerand for years, ever since lie left their ranks to slide Into conser vative quarters, by-Briand and his moderate group ever since Millerand called him bark from Cannes and up set his last ministry. Driven to attack Millerand. Har riot risked defeat, had the Senate stood by the President. But the S? n ate, while disapproving of th< wliol* proceeding, decided > against a i constitutional crlhls such as would have resulted had there been a break between the two chambers, on. backing the other, attacking the President of the Republic. But having yielded gracefully. t.?? Senate took its revenge promptly ?>> electing its own president, as chief executive of the nation. A C"nil>lna tton between the Senate, which \ot d solldlv for Douniergue and the T?loc National In the Chamber of DeputU^ thus brought disaster to Herriot ami his coalition on the morrow of these supreme triumphs in the battle with ^Herriot, who never had much rep utation as a political general, now comes to power with his badly shaken. Moreover lie Is weak ened in two directions; first, becau.. he has failed In his rir?t conslcl.i able effort to achieve something pos ttlvc, namely, the selection of I aln leve: and, secondly, because he lias been driven by the extremists In his coalition to expel Millerand. Mane was apparently willing to set rid of I'olncare but saw the attack uI ' Millerand with disquiet, accentuated by the emphasis to tire atfalr gl> by the Communists. * One must recall that ,v Bloc of the Left was surprising, successful in Retting niembers In tl? Chamber of Deputies. It did not at tually obtain a majority In the "rate and it therefore had small warrant for any extreme course. 1 I without the 11)4 votes of the Social lKt? Herriot, with 141 Radicals and 35 Republican Socialists cannot stay in power and even this comb nation does not give him an a isoln . jority. although he Was able.with tb. Communists to muster o_9 \ote. ""he'tactics"^ the Bloc Natlo^ are quite clear. They were not able to save Millerand. tliey would not have been able to defeat any e?"<n date who could command the unit. d support of the Itloc of the Left; but when the Bloc of the Left quariolled and split up, the majority support ing Palnleve and the minority Uou mergue, then the Hloc National had ?ote* enough to elect Do,in,erg,,.. And. In electing Douniergue. they not only defeated the Left but the> got lor President a man much more mod erate than Palnleve. Herriot starts his premiers!!.p now wlth the obvious handicap of having been defeated In the matter of the presidency and having been dltcloatd as more radical, from necessity rath er than choice, than the country or the majority of Parliament. Any moment when the Bloc National can make a combination with any mod erate faction In Herri if* follow It.* he Will fall and hla succe.sor ln bound to be more convervi tive thin Herriot is able to be. Since Qermany haa deellnej tJ continue the Ruhr economic agree ment* pending the appllcMi m of th" Dawes plan. Herriot finds hjniwll with a foreign crisis on his hands the moment he lakes o!flc?. if ne does not brim Germany to terLis promptly, he will Invite a terrific at tack from the Bloc National, pe haps soon reinforced by deserters from hla own party. But if he does take a high tone, he will be Instant ly In hot water with hla Boclalbts and become the target for a violent attack from the Communlat?. who count 31 votes. All of which makes for uncertain ty in foreign pollclea and delay lr not confusion In the settlement of pending International problems. France has got herself tied up In a mate of domestic politics. s"e l? for the moment In the hands of a combination of Incompatible political parties whose only real Interest In common was to get rid of I'oincare. Had Palnleve been chosen Presl dent of the Republic the French up heaval might have been comparable to the British, for Palnleve. because of the Nlvelle episode, la as bitterly hated bv the Bloc National as Bam say MacDonald as a pacifist was de spised bv British patriots during thf war. But the French swing evident ly hatted on the wrong side of Paln leve, so far as the Bloc of the Left was concerned, and now we have to look for the further swing of the pendulum back. Some foreign success, concessions made bv Hritain. nurnmdcrs mad? by Germany, these are the only thinps which ran save Harriot for Ion? or give the Bloc of the Left any continued lease of office. As n r? - suit of the decision at Vernal I the new Cabinet begins with its' future already compromised. Millerand is already avenged ami Polncare muv obtain vindication only a little lesjj promptly. HOKE ESTABLISHED IN FEBRUARY, 1911 Named in Honor of Major General Holier! F. Hoke of Lincolnlon, Aide Officer of Confederate Armv. Raleigh, June 24.?
