FRANCE’S POLICY.
DESIRE FOR PEACE.
DANGERS OF EUROPE. GERMANY’S TROUBLE. By Telegraph.—Press Assn.— Copyright. Received Oct. 23, 5.5 p.m. Paris, Oct. 21. The Premier (M. Briand), answering an interpellation in the Chamber, demanded a. large vote of confidence. He would not go to Washington unless his (majority was large enough to dissipate any doubt regarding France’s desire to practise a policy of peace. It might be easy enough to secure the execution of the Versailles Treaty if Germany and France were face to face alone, but there was Germany on one side and the Allies on the other on the question of Silesia. Europe was on the frontier of a new war.
M. Briand read evidence of the destruction of Germany’s war material and her recent disarmament. He paid a tribute to Herr Wirth (German Chancellor), who. was up against industrial magnates who were organising Germany’s bankruptcy, in the hope of preventing Germany executing the financial clauses of the treaty. The debate was adjourned till Tuesday. —Aus.-N.Z. Cable Assn.
