Sir John Simon's Statement.
London, July 1.
Asked in Commons if he had re- the ceived any intimation from French Government as to their at titude towards the Tripartite Cur- rency Agreement, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, Sir John Simon, said that the French Government had assured him that they were anxious to continue close co-opera- tion with the governments of the United States of America and the United Kingdom.

-Reuter the issues involved. The view 'strongly held in London is that the control is an essential feature of Non-Intervention. The suggestion appears to be canvassed in Rome and Berlin that it might be pos- sible to combine the measure of Non-Intervention without naval control with the granting of belligerent rights,
NO AGREEMENT? There is no likelihood at all of Britain and France agreeing to such a combination. Such an ar- rangement would be definitely, partial in its working since the French Frontier would continue to be closed while General Franco would be expected to gain some advantage from the vise of belligerent rights at scá and there could be no confidence in the pro- per observation of Non-Interven- tion at sea without naval patrol.
It must not. therefore, De assumed that France and Britain would be willing to continue Non- Intervention without control. All that can be said with certainty is that at to-morrow's meeting France and Britain may be ex- pected to renew their offer to close the gap in the Naval Obser vation Scheme and that If it is not accepted they will reserve their attitude towards Non-Inter- vention as a whole.
At the inst General Election, Sir George Penny had a majority of 22,399; polling 32,953 against 10,014 secured by Mr. Loman, whilst Mr. F. J. Powell (Liberal) polled '8,832 votes.
