ALLIES' ECONOMIC ALLIANCE
FIRST STEP TAKEN BY FRANCE. Paris, April 26. The Government has taken a decisive move regarding an economic offensive after the war. Henceforth it will denounce all "most favoured nation" commercial treaties, and also tlio _ fifty-two conventions regarding commercial navigation and Customs. France's bold step js believed to be taken in complete agreement with the Allies, and leaves her freo for whatever now commercial maritime and Customs status she may intend to adopt.* The denunciations include the trade treaties with neutrals, in order to pave the way for the altered situation after the war. This is the first step towards an economic alliance among the Allies, which the Central Powers'greatly dread.—Aus.-N.Z. Cable Aesn.
