ANOTHER BLUNT REFUSAL BY FRANCE TO DISCUSS ITALIAN DEMANDS
Paris, To-day.
"We will not permit anyone to touch the Empire, built with the blood and labour of Frenchmen. We will maintain our sovereignty and territory intact."

M. Bonnet said that at the same time as Franco-German relations were improving, Anglo-French re lations were becoming increasingly. close.
In recent speeches Lord Halifax | and Mr. Chamberlain had showed the whole world complete Anglo- French solidarity. Reuter.

Burgos, Yesterday. One of the first results of the recognition of General Franco by the Western Powers will be a systématic effort by French industry to regain its former position on the Spanish market.
