FRANCE’S DEBTS
. — NATIONAL APPEAL FOR PATRIOTIC VOLUNTARY SUBSCRIPTIONS SCHEME CONSIDERED BY GOVERNMENT The French Government is considering a scheme for a national appeal for patriotic voluntary subscriptions to pay off France’s debts. By Telegraph.—Press Association. CoPV HIGH ' Paris, April 8. The newspapers publish details of a scheme which the Government is said to be considering for a national appeal for patriotic voluntary subscriptions to pay off France’s debts. The nucleus of the movement would be a so-called Committee of National Propaganda, presided over by one of France’s heroes, whose name is synonymous with victory. The committee would be non-political and non-party, and would appeal throughout the country for voluntary subscriptions. “Le Journal” says that the financial ball will be set rolling by the Government members themselves. Every penny of the proceeds will be devoted to paying off the debt as early as possible.—Reuter.
