ANOTHER WARNING.
France Will Not Concede Territory. ARMED CONFLICT FIRST. Independent Cabfe Servioe. (Received 11.30 a.m.) PARIS, December 19. In a speech in the Chamber of Deputies, M. Bonnet, Foreign Minister, bluntly warned Italy that "any attempt to take any part of French territory will lead £0 armed conflict."
Later he explained to newspapermen that he meant not merely Corsica, Savoy and Tunis, but every French possession. The Chief of the French War Staff, General Gamelin, and Vice-Admiral Durlan will shortly tour North Africa to inspect the defences of Algeria and Morocco.
