LATEST FRENCH CABINET
PRESENTED AMID STRIFE
BRIAXD FACES EXTREMELY
DIFFICUIT TASK, SAID -
Premier Forced to Take Leari With
Majority Opposition in '
Ministry
PARIS, Nov. 28. (By Associat
ed Press.) Arlstide Briand pre
sented his eighth cabinet to the
president of the republic ; this af
ternoon : after another struggle
against the political influences
which almost wrecked his com
bination at the 11th hour. The
cabinet, formed on almost exclu
sively partisan lines, is extremely
liberal in its tendencies and com
mitted to radical measures for the
cure of the financial ills. With
the expression of former premier
George Leygues and the Alsatian,
Paul Jourdain, the whole minis
try eomes.from three of the re
maining groups which with the
socialists formed the coalition of
the left. Numerically these groups
represent about 280 votes in the
total of S80 in the chamber. Pre
mier Briand consequently, will
have a difficult task in governing!
with a majority partly recruited I
from the opposition. M. Briand is
regarded as the only man in
French public life able to achieve
such a mission. A moderate con
servative opposition is expected to
wait for the introduction of meas
ures for financial renovation be
fore taking up Its attitude regard
ing the new government. ; The so
cialists it is thought will do like
wise.
The nature of the , financial
measures will decide whether the
additional votes the government
groups require to pass any bills
will come from the socialists or
from the right.
The new ministers will " meet
tomorrow evening to draw up a
ministeritl declaration which the
premier says will be the shortest
on record. M. Briand will leave
for London Monday to sign the
locarno treaties. He will return
to Paris Wednesday in time to ap
pear before the chamber in the
afternoon.
A novelty of the new govern
ment will be a technical mission
attached tovthe ministry of fin
ance, composed of financiers and

67 Per Cent of ToUl Appropria
tion Spent for Operation
and Service- '
WASHINGTON, Nov. 28. (By
Associated Press.) Rear Admiral
Moffett, chief of the navy bureau
of aeronautics in a letter to the
president's air board outlining the
accomplishments of naval aviation
in the past six years, declares that
"the navy has minded its own bus
iness, has obeyed orders, has not
Impugned the ! motives, criticized
nor attacked a sister service."
' The navy, he adds, "has ''loyally
and it is believed, efficiently car
ried out the approvei policy of the
secretary of the navy and of its
commander In chief, the president
of the United States."
The letter, which was made pub
lic today, was writen November
7, and supplements testimony the
admiral gave before the board in
person during its hearings.
Since the conclusion of the
world war, the letter reads, when
naval aviation consisted principal
ly, of large flying boats or patrol
planes, the navy has been develop
ing "types of planes to be used
from all classes of surface vessels
and it may now be said that avia
tion is in the fleet." In a detailed
report of expenditures for naval
aviation in the six-year period. Ad
miral Moffett sets forth what he
had already given in a navy day
address at Des Moines, Iowa, that
is, that only 20.5 per cent has gone
for the purchase of new equipment
whereas 5 per cent was for ex
periments and development, 7:5
per cent for additions arid better
ment to plants and 67 per cent for
maintenance, operation and re
pair. ;
The total expended has been
$184,330,736, of which $123,429,
491 was for maintenance, opera
tion and repair, and $37,476,880
for purchase of new equipment.
There were on hand, he wrote,
1,037 heavier than air, and 35
lighter than air craft, while the
net value of useful materials and
equipment on hand June '30 last
was $18,213,157. ".XT ...
He lists as accomplishments, be
yond the acquisition pf new air
craft of all types, the development
of catapults on battleships far . in
advance of any other nation, the
development of landing fields and
maintenance ot air fields In vari
ous sections, the production of
helium at. steadily decreasing unit
cost, the development of new types
of planes, the development of car-
riers, and a number of other de
tailed points covering the experi
mental and the practical.
"The navy," he says, "is now
operating 140 planes with the
fleet, and this'number is gradual
ly increasing. This comprises ten
squadrons."

NEW SLEEP THEORY IS
ADVANCED BY DOCTORS
EIGHT STUDENTS ARE SUB
JECTED TO EXPERIMENTS
Scientists Believe Sleep Is Nothing
More Than Stage Of Intoxication,
WASHINGTON, Nov. 28.
(Associated Press) A theory
that sleep may. be the result of
nothing more than intoxication j
and that by cultivating better
habits humanity may lessen the
hours- so spent, was advanced
here today bjr George Washington
university scientists who conduct-
ed a recent test on eight students.
The finding was tentative and
the research work will, be con
tinued but meanwhile the scien
tists say that if the results point
ed to any one theory .of sleep it
was that of natural intoxication
caused by the storing of poisons
in the human system during the
wakeful hours.
When the drunkard becomes
intoxicated, - they said he , sleeps
and generally wakes up detoxified-
In the case of the students, micro-
scopicat examination showed their
blood changes . corresponded to
those of a drunken man, and that
t heir trouble was cured by a short
penoa ot sleep.
The students were kept awake
for sixty hours. It was tonnd
that Insomnia played havoc with
the visual senses, , phantoms be-
ing reported by some, and various
distortions of objects by others. A
single nights loss ot sleep did not
affect the ability of the subjects
to drive automobiles but they be-
came rather dangerous drivers on
the second night.
It Is quite possible, the sClen -
tists said, that through force of
habit one person is able to obtain
a hundred units of sleep in ne-
hair the time required by others.
In shortr they said, "sleep
nas not oniy length, hut depth."
If this assumption be true, the
length of time that people sleep
is very largely a question of habit,
It might be possible to cause their
sleeping - mechanicisms to work
laster, just as by a series of con-
djtioned reflexes we can make the
salivary glands Vork faster."
