Georges Mandel, French Jewish political leader, has been appointed Minister of Communications in the new “truce” cabinet of Premier Pierre-Etienne Flandin.
The new minister was an intimate friend and collaborator of the late Premier Georges Clemenceau, the “Tiger” of war-time France. During the World War, M. Mandel held very important positions, but since Clemenceau’s withdrawal from politics, he has taken no active part in governmental affairs.
