DEFENCE OF LIBERTY
"She hopes that peace will be saved, but if war is offered as the only alternatiyo between downfall or dishonour, she will rise with one bound for the defence of liberty. "As a result of recent measures, her economic situation is improving and her national defence solidly. assured. Her renaissance is tinuing. Yesterday the franc appre- cisted, and to-day alone we received four tons of gold. The nation has responded to our appeal with virile resolution as in all grave hours of her history.

ITALY'S ARGUMENTS
"WO cannot accept Signor Mussolini's arguments, because every fresh conquest or concession would open new claims." Having described the strength of France as greater than it ever was, M. Daladier proceeded to define what he meant by the strength of France. "It is the entity of magnificent armies, whose leaders and men form a single bloe without losing anything of their individual virtue; it finds support in a rich, balanced country. whose soil is fertile and sheltered from the distress of fumine; It is all over the world, in the remotest of possessions, where, as Minister for the Colonies 15 years ago, I felt the keenest loyalty 'vibrating: It is also In the immense Empire of which the untouchable African bloc forms the central girder. and of Whose affectionate attention and devotion to the Mother country recently Was able to measure for myself.
