DOMINIONS IN LOCAL SHARE CLOSE TOUGH ON PEACE EFFORTS
London, To-day
The results of the Angio French conversations have im- mediately been communicated to the Dominion Governments.
In British circles, er- phasis is laid on the per- fect harmony between the views of the two Governments which was manifested through- out the proceedings and this re- ceived a striking corroboration from the French Premier, who when he saw French journalists in London this afternoon, re- fused to answer questions "as, at this very moment, Mr. Neville Chamberlain is doing so before the Commons and as we are in perfect and total agreement, his replies will be mine.”
