Paris, Feb. 26.

A strong attack upon the policy of M. Leon Blum, the French Prime Minister, especially in the direction of Finance, was delivered to-day by the former Prime Minister M. Pierre Flandin. He declared that a quarter of the subscribers to earlier loans launched by M. Vincent Auriol, the Finance Minister, did not intend to renew their subscriptions and that two London banks, at the last moment, had refused to subscribe to the British loun to France.

"We believe, Monsieur le President, that you are Judleate in the Douglas and North-leading France with perfect sincerity and honesty towards catastrophe," declared M. Flandin. ""The republican regime will perish if you persist in your present policy.
