The movement in favour of a more liberal commercial policy is. now thoroughly launched, and ap peals have been addressed to the Government from all sides to en- gage in negotiations with a view to arresting the decline of France's foreign trade.

The report of the Council on this question says that the "end to be aimed for is a return to the nor mal play of international exchan ges through the renunciation of a closed economy."

It points out, however, that the "The possession of some private situation is still abnormal owing to the high tariffa existing, and re- income or employment in some ad-

steadily increased, thanks to the Treaty of 1927. The latter con- tains important advantages for Germany which were considered to be justified by reparations. As re parations no longer exist the pre- scat situation, it is felt, calls urgently for reform. The Council also condemns the quota system ex-. cept as a temporary expedient.

As regards national equipment the new programme of work, for which a big loan is shortly to be raised, will probably include im- provements in the Paris region, the electrification of certain, gail- ways, the commencement of the Rhone navigation and power scheme, and important undertak ings in the colonics.
