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."

This declaration was made by the Foreign Minis- ter, M. Georges Bonnet, in a speech at Gourdon last night.

M. Bonnet explained that re- cognition of General Franco was necessary because France wanted neighbourly relations with Spain.

She wished to re-establish com- mercial relations with her and did not wish to have a new frontier to defend.

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.

As a condition for a resump- tion of normal commercial rela- tions, the Nationalist Govern ment will probably insist on the return of the gold of the Bank of Spain, deposited in France, as well as of Spanish art trea- sures and war material taken into France by the Republicans.
