Observers recalled that Senator Doumer's recent failure to form a Cabinet (TIME, Dec. 7) was cleverly exploited by M. Briand to make his own triumph the greater when he succeeded. One Frenchman said to another, "What if it were all a put up job: a deal whereby Doumer, who has the Senate solidly behind him, should succeed the brilliant but unpopular Loucheur, and slide necessary tax measures of a less drastic nature through the Chamber...

As the hours passed he noticed that the air was getting curiously dark. A little drum pounded in the back of his neck. Suddenly his bell slipped...
