New decrees were decided upon relating to frontier defence, increasing the navy effectives, and opening credits for industrial expansion.
The Foreign Minister, M. Bonnet. made a lengthy statement regarding the London conversations. The Premier. M. Daladier, urged President Lebrun to stand for reelection. assuring him that it was the desire of the whole country. M. Blum’s paper, “Le Populaire,” declares. however, that M.
