FEAR OF WAR
FEELING IN FRANCE. “Everyone in France is very much afraid of another war- with Germany,” said M. Fernand Colardeau, a barrister of Noumea, and president of the
New Caledonia and Now Hebrides Returned Soldiers’ League, on his arrival at Sydney this month, by the P. and O. liner Mooltan, after a 12 months’ holiday in France. The fact that the “Steel Helmets” could parade 200,000 armed troops in Berlin, said M. Colardeau, had caused considerable (perturbation in France, where it was feared that it was a mani-
festation of the return of a warlike spirit. M. Colardeau said that the New Caledonia. and New Hebrides Returned Soldiers’ League had 1800 members. The asociation carried out a regular’ correspondence with the Returned Sailors and Soldiers’ Imperial League of Australia. He had served during the war with the French Colonial Infantry.
