French Cov’t Resigned Early Today

PARIS. Aul- IB-Jflsturdayl- (CP)— The coalition government of Premier Andre Marie resigned early today, precipitating what most observers believed to be one of France's greatest post-war po litical tests.

The big question was: Who is left for President Vincent. Auriol to choose as Marie's successor.

Speculation arose immediately about the possibility of the Leg- islature being dissoived and new elections being held. That is what Gen. Charles De Gaulle snd his followers have been urging for months.

Marie's Government, formed July 26, was the 10th French

The Radical-Socialist. Premier sent his resignation to the Presi~ dent of the Republic, Vincent Auricil, saying that trreconciliable differences of opinion had arisen ivithin the cabinet on Finance Minister Paul Rcynaurfs plan for economic recovery.

Francois Mlttermd. Secretary of State for Information, announ- ced the resignation at 1:14 a.m. It was learned that Auriol would start early today the search for a successor to Marie.

secrecy had shrouded the cab- inets meetings and it. was not learned immediately which D011- tical party precipitated the crisis. However. it was generally known that Reyriaud desired dras. tic new measures, which generally ivcre agreed to include the rais- ing of many prices.

Reliable sources also speculated that Rcynaucls proposals includ- ed 30-per-cent reductions in mill- tary expenditures.

With food-hungry, industrial areas within her reach this aeenis to mean and does mean that The Island is sitting pretty-that is. if she gets out. of her rich land what it has to offer and can get her products to market. She appears to be on the road to doing both.

The Wai- Office said s military court will be convened, probably in Hamburg, in the British none of Germany, to try the four of- ficers.

"These four officers are held in Munsterlager Hospital in the British none 0f Germany as pris- oners of war." the War Office statement said. ‘They will now be dernilitai-ised by the approp- riate military authorities and will no longer be prisoners of war.“

"these four German generals will be defended by German coun- sel q: their own choice, or in de- fault of choice by German coun- sel allocated to them b! the British authorities .

The four were prisoners of leer in Britain until last month when they were transferred to Germ-

any.

On their transfer, an outcry started in the British press, not- ably in the letters column of the ‘limes and the Daily ‘nlagrsph, about the c " ' detention of the four. A demlnd was voiced that they be either tried or re- leased.

The Moscow radio predicted Wednesday the three field mar-

iisherles during July netted eight per cent more fish than in July.

"Oolh, Mabel, isn't he hand- some!!!" exclaimed the little woman in the big, flopping hat. “The dear man »- imagine him coming all the way from India to open our exhibition."

"He" was Earl Mountbatten of Burma, who today paid high trib- ute to (Airladlrs efforts in peace and war as he officially opened the Canadian National Exhib- itlnn.

The conversation between Mabel and the little woman in the big hat came as tihe tall, lean figure in the white aclmirals uniform, accompanied by his lady and flanked by military aides, made his way through the crowd.

All the dignitaries of town and (province were on hand to pay tribute to the former Viceroy of India and southeast Asia com- mander. _

It was a full day at the exhib- ition for the Earl. After luncheon and the opening cei-cirnonies, he went to the coliseum for the un- veiling of s plaque to the 140,000 airmen who trained ln the build- ing during the wai- when it was an R.C.A.F. manning dcipot

Berlin. City Hall Again ' Invaded By Commies.

By GEORGE BRIA

BERLIN. Aug. 2'7 —- (A-Pl Screaming demonstrators invaded Berlin's city hall again today in a rising Communist-led drive to set up their own Red rule.

It appeared likely tonlg-‘ht that the city council's anti-Communist majority, faced with a constant threat of similar imrlsings, would move to western Berlin. The ac- tion would complete the east-west quilt.

The city hall is in the Russian acne and Soviet-backed east Ber- lin police stood by idly.

The situation here tonight thus was that while Foreign Minister Molotov‘ debates the future of this embattled city lwith (the west- ern powers in Moscow, Soviet- tralned Communists are attempt- ing to grab control of the city by physical pressure.

Ferdinand Irlendensburg. Christian-Dancer» acting mayor, charged that the east Berlin p0- iice not. only had refused to pro- tect the parliament but "actually backed the demonstrators.“
