has been reached in the negotiations which have been in progress between Vichy and Germany for a reduction of the occupa-

According to political observers the plans for this conference, which was favoured by Ribbentrop, the Nazi Foreign Minister, Otto Abetz, German Ambassador to France, and de Brinon, French envoy to occupied France,tion have been given up owing to opposition by Admiral Darlan.
An agreement in principle, how- eyer, as previously foreshadowed. has been drawn up on the follow- ing lines:-
German annexation of Alsace- Lorraine:
Integrity of the French colonies; Compensation for France by ob- taining later the Walloon districts of Belgium and British West African colonies;

Now the police are looking for the stranger, who is said to be between 40 and 45, about 5ft 8in, high, and heavily tattooed on hands and fingers.
A doctor said Measham's life might have been saved if he had had medical attention earlier.
