London, May 22.
A veiled hint as to the nature of ihe obstacles which have arisen in Anglo-French-Soviet negotiations in Geneva is thrown out in a dispatch published today in "The Times."
The author of the dispatch, dated from Geneva, says it would hardly be the right thing to expect that the rule prescribing unanimity in decisions of the League Council should be employed to delay measures of defence or assistance agreed upon between individual member states.—Trans-Ocean. economic situation of France during the past five months, showing a decisive improvement, was another fac-for contributing to optimistic feelings on the Bourse.
No appreciable changes were registered on the exchange market, with the pound sterling and American dollar closing at 176.73 and 37.75 respectively, unchanged.—Havas.
