European Federation Idea Growing
TO OPPOSE GERMAN AGGRESSION United Tress Association—By Electric T elegraph—Copyright. Received Wednesday, 9.30 pan. LONDON, Jan. 3. The idea of a European Federation is receiving increasing prominence since M. Daladier’s speech on December 29. The Paris correspondent of the Associated Press of Great Britain states that an organised effort to build up sentiment for such a Federation is reported to have begun. The French hope that it might eventually become world-wide. The authorised spokesman said the idea of the Federation opposes Germany’s ambition to absorb other countries. The system would be modelled on the existing AngloFrench collaboration. Newspapers and radio commentators echoed these statements. The 8.8. C. news announcer ended a reference to Mr. Chamberlain’s telephoning M. Daladier with the statement that Mr. Chamberlain asked M. Daladier to act as spokesman because the British Parliament was not sitting.
