FRANCE AND GERMANY
BRIAND’S TRIUMPH APPEAL FOR FRIENDSHIP By Cable.—Press Association.—Copyright LONDON, Wednesday. The Paris correspondent of the “Daily Express” says the Foreign Minister, M. Briand, achieved a great personal triumph in bringing the French Government back to the spirit of Locarno and Thory. There was a dramatic scene in the Chamber of Deputies when, after he had demolished recent attacks against his Locarno policy, M. Briand ■ pleaded for a more friendly attitude toward Germany. Finally M. Briand carried with him the Premier, M. Poincare, and the Minister of Pensions, M. Martin, who is an ultra-Nationalist. It is understood the French Cabinet has decided to reduce the army in the Rhineland by at least 5,000 men and probably by 10,000, immediately after the assembly of the League of Nations in September.—A. and N.Z.
