Description
France's current situation in October 1949 turns on a government shake-up, a CIA paper reports: Premier Henri Queuille resigned on October 5. The heading adds that the fall came as a direct result of pressures the title cuts off. France's Fourth Republic changed premiers often.
Cabinet crises in Paris were routine, yet each one tested the pro-American center against Gaullists and communists. Analysts explained who might form the next government and what would change. The paper shows political reporting at its most workmanlike: names, factions, and odds. It also captures why allies found the Fourth Republic so hard to rely on.
