' (N.Z. Press Association— Copyright) , PARIS, June 6. The New Zealand Deputy-Prime Minister (Mr Marshall) has had “full and frank discussions” with French Ministers on New Zealand’s position if Britain joins the Common Market.
He met the French Foreign Minister (Mr Couve de Murville) and the Minister of Agriculture (Mr Edgar Pisani). Tomorrow, he .will have talks with the Prime Minister (Mr Pompidou) and other officials. “We . recognised the problems on both sides and that there was no point in not facing up to them, so we got down to business,” said Mr Marshall today. Meanwhile, Australian-Brit-ish talks on the Common Market have reached a lull before a vital week-end conference between Mr Menzies and Mr Macmillan.
