BOUISSON GOVERNMENT RESIGNS IN ERROR
DEFEATED OWING
TO MISCOUNT
BUT PREMIER WON'T RESUME OFFICE
LAVAL LIKELY TO FORM NEXT CABINET
Paris, June 4.
The French Government, has been defeated-by mistake.
The Bouisson Cabinet resigned when it was an- nounced that on the vote on the Plenary Powers Bill the Chamber of Deputies had turned it down by a majority of two.. Later it was discovered that the count was wrong and that actually the Government had a majority of twelve. M. Bouisson's four-day Govern- ment refused to resume office, however, and the Premier declined to form a new cabinet.
It is stated that M. Pierre Laval, the well-known diplomat, will form the next Government-Reuter.

AMERICA MEETS EMERGENCY
RESTORATION OF N.R.A. RULE
BROADER POWERS. FOR ADMINISTRATION
Washington, June 4.
President Roosevelt and his Cabinet have agreed to submit an emergency legislative programme to Congress, planning the restoration of the NRA., qut- lawed by the Supreme Court, on a restricted basis, and possibly only affecting minimum wages, maximum hours and fair trade practices.
This decision was reached after an hour-and-a-half Cabinet session.
It is expected that President Roosevelt will propose action forthwith and will announce full details of his plans at a press conference to be held to-night.
It is indicated that the present emergency mea- sures will not be final or permanent, but the President may possibly seek to broaden his constitutional powers for the support of the New Deal.
