This radical step was due to the sharp manner in which M. Doumer criticized the financial proposals put forward by the Cartel and tire methods of operation of the fin- ance committee. A resolution de- manding that Premier Briand come prim,- it in person has been adopt- ed by the committee. The Premier has accepted this in- vitation and pending his appear- ance the committee today continu- ed its discussion of ‘the bills it proposes t0 offer as substitutes for the government plans.

Premier Brland is understood to be in full accord with his finance minister and it is believed he would welcome a vote in the chamber on the Cartels bill, A poll of the cham- hrr made by friends of the Cabinet indicates ‘that a small majority could he obtained against these measures since the whole lnoder- ate and Conservative opposition Would voln solidly against them.

Be- cause of this and in spite of the fact that she did foster a large number of what could be more pro- perly railed communities, Rome could not be taken as the. author of the system of municipal govern- ment of Western civilization. ‘For somewhat the sams reason ‘Paris was also barred. while both London and New York, being governed by an‘ administration that wan too com- plex and involved m" he essllydia-
