FRENCH ELECT
PRESIDENT IN
JANUARY NEXT
LYONS, Prance, Oct. 24 (by Associ
ated Press).—The election of a suc
cessor to President Poincare is now
only three months distant, yet parlia
mentary elections to choose members
of the senate and chamber of deputies
must first be held, as these in joint ses
sion at Versailles in January must
elect the tenth president of the re
public.
Results of the coming election are
regarded as more obscure than any ■
since the fall of the empire. This is
all the more true because of the death
of one-half million voters in the war,
the coming of age of an equal num
ber, and the anticipated modifications
of party lines by new issues resulting
from the war and reconstruction.
Six hundred deputies and three hun
dred senators are to be chosen. No
aspirant for any of these seats has
yet officially declared his candidacy.
There will be no primaries or local
conventions, as in America, but the
candidates will be selected by party
committees with various combinations
of different parties whose principles
are not too widely separated.
The Socialists are resolved not to
combine with any other party, but the
Radicals have decided to form union

purely republican organizations.
The wide difference between presi
dential elections in France and the
United States is illustrated in the fact
that here the president is chosen by
parliament, while in America the chief
executive is elected by the vote of the
people for electors. Contrary to what
opinions abroad might expect from the
French, elections* here are peaceful
when compared to those of America.
Entirely new legislative and execu
tive machinery is to be selected. The
order of this election will be, election
of municipal and general councils com
bined, of deputies and senators, organ
ization of the congress at Versailles
to choose a president, reappointment
of the old cabinet by the new presi
dent, and the formation of a new cabi
net by the new premier, unless he
chooses to maintain the old cabinet
in power.
Under the new electoral law the
legislative districts have been reduced
from 6G0 to 87, and instead of voting
for a single deputy, as formerly, the
electors will vote for as many depu
ties as are allotted to any one depart
ment. The number of these ranges
from one to forty-four. The govern
ment will print and circulate the tick
ets and campaign literature at the ex
pense of the candidates.

The saving habit—the impulse toward thrift
which was developed during our Liberty Loan
campaigns—will greatly increase our prosper
ity IF CONTINUED.
R we relax, if the effort to save is abandoned,
everything gained during the war will be lost.
Therefore it behooves each and every one of
us to continue to save.
