NEW FRENCH PROPOSALS
MEETING OBJECTIONS
DIRECT TALKS URGED
IS SOVIET RAISING PRICE OF
PACT?
(Independent Cable Service.)
PARIS, July 4k
The Quai d'Orsay is today sending to the Ambassador in London, M. Corbin, new proposals for submission to Britain in order to meet Russia's latest objections.
The Soviet's new demands took France by surprise, as they are not compatible with the favourable report received after M. Molotov's interview with the British and French Ambassadors on Saturday.
The French Press unanimously denounces the continued dragging-out of the negotiations. The publicist "Pertinax" declares that Mr. Chamberlain has bungled the talks from the beginning, and suggests that someone not connected with the Munich settlement should proceed to Moscow and speak direct with M. Stalin.
Sections of the Press affirm that Moscow is raising the price every time Herr Hitler puts the democracies ia a sweat over Danzig.
