Spain to Retire from League

of Nations?

Paris, Aug. 20.

The press devotes a great deal of space to the question of Tangier.

The "Petit Parisien" thinks it would be more reasonable to wait for Spain to voice her aspirations in conerete form before expressing any opinion. The paper adds that thie Prance-Spanish ce-operation in Morocco yielded too satisfactory results not to consider Spain's case with the greatest willingness.

"Lo Journal" says that Madrid arguments do not lack logic and the Spanish claims do not affect France's essential interests.

"Lo Matin" states that the French Government stands by the letter of the treaties and the Tangiers Statute can be revised only by the Powers that drafted it——Havas.
