Faure Becomes French Premier
Paris—(U.P.)—Edgar Faure, a peepery politician who last month challenged a newsman to a duel, took over today as premier of France's 21st postwar government.
The 46-year-old Radical Socialist won the overwhelming approval of the National Assembly yesterday on a program that included a pledge to complete ratification of German rearmament swiftly.
In Bonn, the West German Parliament began final action on the Paris pacts to rearm the country.
Mr. Faure, who was premier for five weeks in 1952, formally presented his cabinet to President Rene Cotv for swearing in today.
Former Premier Pierre Mendes-France got the rearmament treaties through the National Assembly. But they were stalled in the Senate by his overthrow Feb. 5 and the subsequent 19 days without a government.
Mr. Faure, who was finance minister and later foreign minister for Mr. Mendes-France, was reported to have paved the way for immediate Senate action on the treaties before he won assembly approval.
The same deputies who overthrew Mr. Mendes-France and refused to give their support to three other men in the 19-day crisis voted for Mr. Faure by 369 to 210.
Mr. Mendes-France did not join the new government which swung the balance of power from left-of-center to right-of-center. He even abstained on the vote for his fellow Radical Socialist, whose foreign policy was almost exactly the same as his own.
