PARIS. Aug. 23 (Reuter).-The French Ambassador to Rume saw Count Ciano to-day and, it is be- Heved, realtimed France's determina, tion to stand by her obligations.

of the permanent committee of

In

Paris tu-night, it is generally felt | that the bombshell of the German- Soviet pact, intended to disorganise and disrupt the peace front, has nis- fired.

"Le Temps" says: "For Hitler to have deeffed upon so abrupt an evolution shows that he must have been

driven

by circumstances particularly critical for his policy and regime."

The "Journal des Debates" says: "Hitler will run risks in Italy, since there is a little more perspicacity in Rome than in Berlin, and Italy will discern where this terrible gamble leads."

Poland Assured

LONDON, Aug, 23 (Trans-Ocean). -Concerning Mr Chamberlain's essage to Herr Hitler, official quar- ters here content themselves with stating that the message was on the lines of the Cabinet communique.

It is added that the French and Polish governments were Informed of the British demarche, and that the British and French Ambassadors in Warsaw have again assured Colonel Beck, the Polish Foreign Minister, that England and France will come to Poland's assistance if she is attacked.-
