Paris Meeting

Paris, Apr. 10. To-morrow's meeting of the French Cabinet will be devoted to a close study of the situation in the Balkans and the Mediterranean.

Although it was stated at the Quai d'Orsay to-night that Britain had no intention of occupying Corfu, it is regarded as certain that co-operative measure of security by Britain and France will be discussed.

It is reported that certain decisions in connection with national defence may be agreed upon to-morrow, to ensure that France may be ready for any eventuality, but qualified quar- ters are observing the greatest dis- cretion in this connection.

Anyhow, nothing is likely to leak out about them until the Council of Ministers has met on Wednesday.
