THE FRANC.

RENEWED EFFORTS AT SALVATION.

Paris, June 7.

The renewed slump of the franc is likely to lead to something like the wartime rationing in-France, according to the newspapers' inter pretation of the Govurtiment's deci- sion to restrict imports in order to improve France's balance of pay ment,

Le Journal says that bakers will be ordered to close their shops once a week, and hutchers twice a week. Bread cards may even be instituted, while means will bei devised to prevent speculative pur- chase of crops in France by coun- tries with a high rate of exchange.

The Matin says the plan to restrict consumption will probably affect wheat flour, unthracite coal. petrol, and sugar, and certain public works may be suspended.

A statement that the Govern- ment contemplated using the gold reserve of the Banque de France to support the franc has been prompt. ly officially denied, but the news- papers declare it is hoped to nego- tiate a loan with American banks, even if the goid reserve in the Banque de France is not employed na security, which will first be considered.
