Btinnd presented the programme of
his ministry to the chamber of deput

gramme contains four outstanding
points, namely:
Germany must disarm and pay re
parations. France" has the force to compel
respect for engagements taken with
her and would be able to use it If nec-
esesary, but it Is In peace she wishes 1
to bring Germany to fulfill her obliga
tions. '
Peace with Turkey must be made
effective, account being taken of new
circumstances. .
France will not Intervene In the
Internal affairs of Husaia, but cannot
administrate If the soviet armies shall
cross the Russian frontier to attack
the allies of France.
Promises of economy, renovation of
the financial administration and in
tensified reconstruction of the devnst
ed regions made, up the remainder of
the programme.
