NEWSPAPERS CRITICAL
FRANCE'S ALLIANCES
PARIS, March 21. lhe newspapers are critical of Signor Mussolini's peace project on the ground that it conflicts with the League of JNatvjons, and would concentrate power in the hands of four nations— Britain i ranee, Germany, and Italy—to the detriment of smaller countries. Commentators detect an Italian desiro for an understanding' with France owing to disappointment over the developments of Hitlerism and a recognition that Italy lias nothing to -afn irutn a revival of the German military menace.
"Lo Temps" asljs: "Can France deliberately ignore' her alliances with Poland and the Little Entente to relv upon tho solo decision of the four principal Powers for the reconstruction of
Europe? Tho idea arouses fear. France, who built her alliances at great cost, is riot prepared to abandon them at such a critical time."
