Jack Lewis, editor of the Lew-

there is a difference of perspective
somewhere along the line as regards
competition, as he says, “The gov-
ernment, which operates the post
office, has a law providing that
no one can enter into competition
against the post office. It is against
the law for an individual to carry
a letter from one town to another.
It is also against the law for a
firm to hire some one to deliver
monthly statements. This can only
be legally done by some one con-
tinuously in the employ of the
firm."

PARIS, March 10— (AP)—
Leon Blum, Socialist ex-
premier, today accepted Presi-

to attempt formation of a new
cabinet, replacing the resign-

Chautemps.
Chautemps resigned because he
could not get from Parliament pow-
ers to reorganize French finances
by decree Blum, head of the first
people’s front government, resigned
last June 21 for the same reason.
Before he went to the Elysee Pal-
ace at Lebrun's summons, Blum
