...danger!" When eight months ago (TIME, June 12) the then Premier Daladier first raised that cry in the Senate it seemed no more than a useful political trick to whip Senators into line. Last week every Frenchman realized that the Republic was in danger, and to pull it out Edouard Daladier was made Premier of France again...
...Echo de Paris inquired: "Does Premier Chautemps know that among those listed for the Directoire 'without being consulted' was his own War Minister, M. Edouard Daladier?" Whatever the Premier or the Chamber knew last week, the ''Battle of Mud" came to an abrupt end when a motion that the Chamber appoint a commission to investigate L'Affaire Starisky was defeated 360 to 229-the Socialists, who had been verbally lashing the Government, supporting it with their votes. To seal this victory the Left's great champion, M. Edouard Herriot, made a booming plea...
When Cardinal Innitzer first began to charge that Soviet citizens were starving, a spokesman for the Soviet Foreign Office remarked. "In Russia, I am happy to say, we have no famine and no cardinals" (TIME, Aug. 28). Soon afterward, on a goodwill visit to Russia, French ex Premier Edouard Herriot toured the regions of alleged starvation, pronounced Soviet famine a myth (TIME, Sept. 11).

Their great leader, Edouard Herriot, perpetual Mayor of Lyons and several times Premier, could not form a Cabinet this week because: 1) he has barely recovered from a trip to Russia and Turkey which deranged his kidneys and caused him to lose 50 pounds; 2) he fell as Premier the day before Dec. 15 last year trying to get the Chamber to vote France's War debt payment...
...Radical Socialist was chosen, drab, henchmanly M. Camille Chautemps who once before did stop-gap duty as Premier, that time for only five days (TIME, March 10, 1930). As announced, the Chautemps Cabinet was virtually the same as that led until last week by Albert Sarraut and previously by Edouard Daladier (see p. 17). In the Chautemps Cabinet, M. Sarraut returned to the Naval Ministry he held under Premier Daladier, M. Daladier kept the War Ministry he held under Premier Sarraut and that shaggy-maned comet of the Paris bar, M. Joseph Paul-Boncour, continued to shine as Foreign Minister...
