Paria, Nov. 14. M. Flandin was re-elected" Pro-
dent of the Democratic Party at the Party's congress to-day by 1,027 votes out of a possible total of 1,650. Senator Reibel who had severely criticised Flandin's attitude during the Czecho-Blovakian crisis was riot re-elected a member of the Party's Executive Committee and resigned thereupon from the Party.
There were mormy wines when Senator Relbel denounced M. Flundia for having sent telegrarns of con- gratulation to Herr Hitler after the Munich agreement.
Replying to M. Reibel's attacks M. Finndin met with much applause when he declared that he referred to an exchange of telegrams instead of shells. M. Flandin stated that the Communists intended to use the panic expected during the first bombard- ment of Paris for the proclamation of in France, a Soviet Government France certainly must be strong not to fight, but to be able to negotiato with the other powers on an even footing,

On the foreign exchanges there was an early Paris demand for francs which was inspired by the Govern- ment's recovery measures, but this later gave way to a widespread de- mand for dollars.
The change of sentiment perplexed the market, but it was thought that they reflected Continental fears that the developments in Germany may hinder the policy of European ap- peasement-Reuter Special.
