This article focuses on the formation of French Cabinet in the year 1946. The formation of a new French Cabinet may take an entire week and give rise to a series of confusing moments, but in the end Felix Gouin will probably be reappointed as Prime Minister. The M. R. P., as the biggest party in the Assembly, is officially claiming the premiership, and for the next few days the name of Francisque Gay will be heard as the favorite candidate, since Georges Bidault does not want to leave his post at the Quai D'Orsay. Since a Communist Premier is excluded, the burden will again fall to the Socialists.
