The participation of the Club of Jewish Deputies in the Polish parliament in the forming of a new Polish cabinet is still being discussed in leading political circles here.
The resignation of the coalition government, headed by Count Skrzynski, will become effective in a short time, probably during the first week in May.
It is doubtful whether Count Skrzynski will undertake the task of forming a new cabinet. It is more certain that he will enter the new government as Minister of Foreign Affairs.
Two combinations in the forming of the new government are being negotiated now, one, of a government based on the joined forces of the Right parties and the center; the other, a combination of the Left parties and the center. Leaders of both combinations express the desire to draw the Club of Jewish Deputies into their combination, declaring that it would be impossible to form a cabinet without the participation of the Club.
It was stated today on good authority that the Club of Jewish Deputies will not agree to participate in the forming of the cabinet unless assurances are given that the demands of the Jewish population will be met by the incoming government. It is doubtful, however, whether the Club of Jewish Deputies would join the combination of the Right and the center groups.
