Paris, Mar. 8.
The speech of Mr. Neville Chamberlain, the British Prime Minister, to the House of Commons yesterday has been completely approved here.
The clarity with which the British statesman appeared as the defender of democracy was particularly noted. moreover, the daily contacts between London and Paris have already constituted for France a guarantee that her point of view will be defended in the negotiations by Britain.
British rearmament is wholly àp-proved by France. Tt is emphasized here that the phrase, "increases or decreases in credits for national defence will depend upon circumstances," probably alludes to the results of Anglo-Italian and Anglo-German negotiations,—Havas.
