Geneva, Nov. 20.

The Committee of Eighteen will meet on December 12 to consider the imposition of an oil embargo against Italy. +

Italy's reaction to the proposed embargo is not likely to influence the powers concerned.

However, as M.

SOUND MAJORITY IN CHAMBER

RADICALS' ASSISTANCE KEEPS CABINET SAFE

Paris, Nov. 29,

The Laval Government's majority on the finance issue was larger than was anticipated and it is now expected that the Government will win through its second crisis, the Fascist Leagues debate, scheduled for next week.

The Chamber voted 824 against 247 in support of tho Government on the second important division in two days,

During to-night's debate the Finance Minister, M. Regnier, said the flight of gold from France was a catastrophe. It had been going on since November 4. He therefore asked for a massive vote to enable him to take measures against specula- tors and newspapers campaigning to bring the nation to the threshold of panic.

The motion on which the voto was taken was proposed by the Loft Centre and Radical deputies, and reads: "The Cham- ber, observing the temporary character of the economy decrees, and having confidence in the measures to defend the franc, calls upon the Government for immediate alleviations in favour of the small civil servants, rentiers and ex-servicemen.";
