Bv Radio to The Star. PARIS, January 2—France already is under a mild dictatorship. Aristide Briand, by a shrewd ma- neuver, has successfully, though per- haps only momentarily, asserted his | determination to cling to power with- | out regard to the constitution. In this he has the backing of President Doumergue. M. Briand was brought to this de- | cision when early this week five vadical Sociallst members of the cab- t revolted against M. Doumer's inancial program. M. Briand served Jotice that if they resigned he would replace them without seeking parila- wmentary approval. Such action was entirely unprece- dented and unconstitutional, and if the vecalcitrant ministers had not yielded, \I. Briand would have been com- initting @ dictatorial act. As it is, iie is today virtual dictator by gen- cral eonsent, M. Briand fg plaving a2 deep political | cialists to game, aiming at destruction of the Soclalist party. A month ago when he was first offered the premiership he declined because the Socialists re- fused to participate. Later, after other politiclans had found it impos- sible to form a ministry, he accepted and dispensed with Socialist aid. To- day he brandishes the threat of a dictatorship, not because he desires to become actual dictator, but because | theréby he hopes®td induce the So- in the nmext | participate cabinet.
