INVITED TO FRANCE
BRITISH FOREIGN MINISTER IMPORTANT EVENTS (British Official Wireless.) , RUGBY, 3rd October. The Foreign Office announces that Messieurs Laval (Prime Minister), Briand (Minister for Foreign Affairs), and Flandin (Minister of Finance), being desirous of discussing the general position with Lord Reading, have invited him to go to Paris for that purpose. Lord Reading proposes to leave London on Tuesday morning for Paris to meet the French Ministers. The visit will be the first occasion on which the British Foreign Secretary will have made personal contact with the French Ministers since he took office. Recent and forthcoming events in the international situation — the French visit to Berlin and the coming visit to Washington, the developments at Geneva regarding the disarmament question, and the recent events of a financial and economic nature—make personal discussions obviously desirable at tho present time, and tho invitation to Lord Reading is generally welcomed.
