Called on the carpet as a result of the Russian threat, Premier Edouard Daladier emerged with such a weak vote of confidence (311 deputies had not voted) that his cabinet resigned. This was a victory for democracy, because the Daladier government has ruled for seven months under dictatorial decrees. Quickly President Albert Lebrun summoned Paul Reynaud, conservative minister, bitter foe of Naziism and If foreign observers hoped the Finnish peace would place a quietus on western warfare, their mistake was clearly evident by late March.

CONGRESS: Farm Fund Passed by the senate (and certain to pass the house) was a agriculture appropriation bill carrying $212,000,000 for parity payments and another $85,000,000 for the surplus commodities program. It was more than $200,000,000 above either the house bill or the Presidents budget, and wiped out most of the $300,000,000 earlier savings through which the house planned to avoid new taxes or a boost in the national debt limit. Though congress hoped to offset the farm boost by slashing defense and relief appropriations, even this possibility was fading fast. Europes war was forcing U. S. attention to her armed strength and metropolitan congressmen were demanding at least a $500,000,000 boost in WPAs appropriation. Some observers predicted the deficit for next fiscal year would be at least $2,500,000,000, compared with the $1,716,000,000 estimate by President Roosevelt. Treasury Secretary hearing that congress was looking covetously at his $2,0d0,000,-00- 0 stabilization fund, hastened to protect it. Also in congress: ' C.
