M. BLUM IN LONDON
(British Official Wireless.)
RUGBY, May 10,
Tne former French Popular Front Prime Minister and leader of the Socialist Party, M. Leon Blum, who is on a visit to England, lunched today with Mr. Winston Churchill.
He later saw the Foreign Secretary, Lord Halifax, and in the evening dined with Mr. Attlee, Leader of the Opposition, and other members of the Parliamentary Labour Party.
M. Bonnet, the French Foreign Minister, will also make a brief visit to England at the end of the week, when he will fly to Southampton to deliver a speech there on Saturday, but he will not pass through London or see any British statesmen, though on his return to Paris he will probably make contact with Lord Halifax, who will be en route to Geneva.
