FORECAST OF MILLERANDS MESSAGE. • PARLIAMENT ALONE CAN DECIDE PRESIDENCY.’' (Received June 10. 10.25 p.m.) PARIS, June 9. According to a semi-official forecast, M. Millernnd's message to Parliament will briefly review, events since his assumption of the Presidency. recalling that the President had invariably pursued a policy of social progress and agreement at Home and abroad, and all Cabinets whereto he had entrusted power, had been Coalition ones. wherein the members of the Left participated. He will declare that his attitude has always conformed to the constitutional prerogative. Re will point out that the'new majority made it impossible for the head of the State to exercise his mandate. Such interference in the administration, he asserts. subordinates the power of the head of the State to electoral fluctuations and would result in the creating of a precedent fraught- with incalculable consequences. He concludes that Parliament alone can decide the question of the Presidency". —A. and N.Z.C.A.
