By the Aseociated Press CLERMONT - FERRAND, France, May 22.—The attitude of the French Socialists toward participation in the government will be decided for the third time in two vears at a national convention, opening here tomorrow. The delegates will decide whether to help the radicals in an attempt to form & new Herriot cabinet; whether, on the contrary, to join hands with the Communists in an uncompromis- ing position, or whether to stick to the middle of the road, as they have heen doing. The most active of the party lead- era outslde Parliament oppose par- efpation in the government, holding that the party already has been weak- v its compromising relations with the rad and is steadily los- ing forces to the Communist The more extreme members are in favor of a coalition with the Com- munists. Between these two ele- ments are the parliamentarians, with ministerial ambitions, who will fight vigorously in favor of a governmental allianco with the other group of the Teft bloc. A majority of the delegates are said to be pledged to vote against partic- ipation. The impression tonight was that a compromise resolution would be adopted, authorizing the Soclalist members of Parliament to support any government that proposes meas- ures in accord with the Soctalist policy, but forbidding them to accept any post in the government.
