The cabinet’s resignation was handed to President Doumergus, who presided at the meeting, by Louis Barthou, ing premier, who drafted @ letter follows: “The efforts we have made with M. Poincare to persuade him in the in- terests of his country to retain direc- tion of public affairs Has no met with the result we had hoped. “We must bow to his decision with the regret of not being able to con- tinue a collaboration that was accom- panied by our admiration and re- spectful devotion, Therefore we beg you, Mr. President, kindly to accep: our resignation and tie expression of our profound respect.” ‘The letter as signed by all the min- isters and subsecretaries.

EXPERTS TOIL OVER GREATEST BUDGET IN PEACETIME HISTORY Hoover Demands That Expendi- tures for 1931 Be Kept Be- low $4,000,000,000 Washington, July 27.—(AP)— The tremendous task of formulating $4,000,000,000 budget for the next year—the 1931 fiscal year—already has begun. Congress, with most of its mem- during its torrid summer, will not be called upon to consider the problem until December. The budget experts are at present ana- lyzing the preliminary esti! submitted recently by the govern- mental departments. Then the budget bureau will re- turn to the governmental depart- ments and agencies on September 15 the socalled regular estimates— that is, its revised figures of the preliminary estimates—and the de- partment heads will be called upon to reallocate the funds among their various bureaus on the basis of these figures. As departm expenditures. have been increasing in recent years —almost at the annual rate of $100,000,000—the budget experts face a difficult task for the 1931 budget in keeping the total below the $4,000,000,000 mark desired by President Hoover. Last year's bud- get figure aggregated $3,800,000,- 000, but new activities of the gov- ernment voted by congress in recent years have added large expend- itures, Chief among these are the farm relief and government building pro- grams, the naval cruiser- and mili- tary building programs, pi flood control and Boulder dam projects, the increases in postal deficits and the undertak- ings entrusted to the law enforce- ment and other commissions.
