Berlin.—The resignation of Chnn-j
cellor Wilhelm Cuno and his entire
sabinet were accepted by President
Ebert.
Dr. Gustav Stresemann, leader of
the German people’s party, has been!
commissioned by President Ebert to';
form a new government.
After accepting the- task, Horrj
Stresemann had a conference with tb*»i
representatives of the various parties,:
The., greatest difficulty seems to bvi
In connection with the foreign min*j
istry and it is believed possible that'
he will take the post himself tom*-
porarily.
It is believed in political quarter®
that Herr Hilferdibg will be the new'
finance minister and Herr Solimani
will be named minister of interior,!
while the name of Herr Rheinhaben,'
of the people’s party is mentioned an;
the new secretary of state^ to the 1
imperial chancellory.
Thus the new cabinet would be a!
strictly political character, including;
representatives of the united social
ists, clerical, people’s and democratic
parties. The united socialists have
made it known that they expect to
have four seats in the ministry.
Just before Chancellor Cuno called
on President Ebert to submit the!
cabinet’s resignation, the rolchstag|
leaders representing the present coali-j
tion parties and the united socialist*)
visited the president and discussed!
with him the prospects of construct^
lug. a government on a four-party ooal4
Ition basis.
This indicated that the united BO*i
cialists had arrived at an understand*!
ing with the bourgeolse parties with
respect to their readiness to enter a
cabinet which would accept as a plat
form the program of Internal tax and
financial measures and other polltl-!
cal and economic demands which thej
united socialists put forward in theirj
campaign against Herr Cuno.
Thq four-party coalition which here*
after will occupy the government
bench in the reichstag will commah
a majority which is opposed by onl;
71 nationalists and 26 communist!
votes out of a total of 269.
Dr. Stresemann was born in 1878.
He is one of the most fluent speakers
in the reichstag and ah out and out
partyman, Nevertheless, ho is regard*
ed as an adept politician.
