FRANCE AND CHURCHILL
HINT TO RUSSIA
Not Prepared To Be Left Out
St. Etienne, Feb. 19.-France did not intend to be left out of any negotiations resulting from Mr Winston Churchill's suggestion of a new Western approach to Soviet Russia, the French Prime Minister, M. Georges Bidault, indicated in a sprech here today.
"Mr Winston Churchill-who was our cham-! pion and our friend in international conferences at which we were not present, and when a claim was raised to settle the fate of the world without France-has just pronounced at an electoral cam- paign meeting in favour of a three-power con- ference," M. Bidault said.
"I have difficulty in be- lieving that his idea is in ita final form."
