...backers, Poincare and Clemenceau, both too old and sick to take the helm. With sound strategy, M. Tardieu shifted from foreign affairs to a masterful address on internal agrarian and financial policy. That turned the scale. For years M. Tardieu has been called Le Dauphin ("The Crown Prince"), designated to succession by the fiscal genius who saved and stabilized the franc, M. Raymond Poincare (TIME, Jan. 3. 1927).
