SERIOUS POSITION IN FRANCE
FINANCIAL DIFFICULTY.
INTERNATIONAL EFFECT.
Britain Intimately Concerned
Press Association —Copyright. Received 1.50 p.m. London, March 3.
The situation developing in France as a result of financial difficulties may have serious repercussions in the international situation conceivably leading to disorders in the next few weeks.
The political correspondent of the Australian Associated Press understands that the developments are arousing considerable in London because Britain is at present so intimately bound up with France that she would be drawn into any crisis which, moreover, might be a temptation to Hitler. The French are in a state of alarm and find the dilemma intensified because nobody is anxious to replace as Premier M. Blum, whose one chance of saving the situation may be a national appeal, hoping to rally the nation. One of the few factors in his favour is that the army is at present very strong and is believed to be entirely unaffected by politics.
