MINISTER DEFENDS FRENCH POLICY.
NO DISTINCTION BETWEEN IMPORTING COUNTRIES,
Paris, Jan. 7.
France's economic policy during the present crisis was defended by M. Rollin, Minister for Commerce. when speaking at the opening of the new offices of the Chamber of Commerce.
M. Rollin said that although France was comparatively less hard hit by the universal depression, she was nevertheless sorely tried. She had been forced to have recourse to temporary measures, which in no way differentiated between import- ing countries, and did not inter- fere with the normal working of exchanges.
The Government had been at pains to come to friendly arrange- ments with other countries, con- ciudad M. Rollin.-Reuter's Special Service.
