FRENCH ACTION IN SAAR
Received Mondav, S.40 p.m. LONDON, Dec. 30. All German political parties have uo.w recorded protests against the French action in the Saar, says the Tinies' Berlin correspondent. Their eonunon theme is that this is a further hani blow to Geriuany 's econouiic and political unitv and the hope is e.xpressed that the coming conference in Aioseow will not sanction the separation of ; tlie Saar from Germany. Tlie Prench desire for security and restitution is reeognised fullv but this, it is urged, eannot be served or met by a further breaking-up of Gernianv nor can tliere be hojie for tlie development of deniocracy unless peace rests on a firm fouudation. ° Oon.munist commenators draw a distinction between what the French have done in the Saar and the transfer of eastern jirovinees to Polish adininistralion. Tho second was in fulfilmont of Ihe Potsdnm Ag'reement but the French uction had no sucli warrant. Even in I'cgui'd to tlie. eastern provinees tlie Gominunists exjiress the hope that the last word has not been said.
