M. BLUM'S CONCESSION Senate's Finance Bill Changes Accepted
Talk Of Impending
Resignation Continues
Paris, To-day.
Despite the fact that the French Premier has made concessions to the Senate on his finance mea- sure, there is growing belief that M. Leon Blum will give up the Premiership and lead to a broadening of the basis of the government.
THE QUESTION OF A SUCCESSOR TO M. BLUM IS STILL BEING DISCUSSED IN ALL QUARTERS. “EPOQUE” LEARNS FROM A COURSE “IN CLOSE TOUCH WITH THE SENATE” THAT M. DALADIER, THE PRESENT MINISTER FOR DE- FENCE, WILL SOONER OR LATER APPEAR AS PREMIER IN SUCCESSION TO M. LEON BLUM
His Cabinet in national "unity will include such leading personali- ties as M. Paul Reynard, M. Louis Marin, M. Georges Bonnet, M. Camille Chautemps and M. Grossard and other members of the majority and minority parties.
WALL STREET RELAPSE

It is also likely, in view of the present wave of strikes, that M. Daladier will seek to include in his wall Street since the present reces- Cabinet two persons who stand apart sion started, sent several stocks to from parliamentary life, namely, Gignoux, President of the Employers Federation, and M.

Among others, the following cita- tions will be read from the Bible, "Great is the Lord and greatly to be praised; and his greatness is unsearch- able. All thy works shall praise thee O Lord; and thy saints shall bless thee. They shall speak of the glory of the Kingdom and talk of thy power. Thy Kingdom is an everlasting Kingdom and thy dominion endureth throsighout all generations. The Lord is righteous in all his ways and holy in all his works. O Lord, how great are thy works and tiry thoughts are very deep. (Ps. 145: 3, 10, 11, 13, 17. Ps. 92: 5,)
The following citations will also be read from the Christian Science Text- book, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy, "Reality is spiritual, harmonious, im- mutable, immortal, divine, eternal. The spiritual fact is the scientific reality in all things.

Christian Science reveals incontrevertibly that Mind is All-in-All, that the only realities are the divine Mind and idea.” His fact is not, however, seen to be posted by sensible evidence, divine Principle is demonstz healing theick and thus proved. solute
