FRENCH DEFENCE ZONE. WITHDRAWAL SUBSTITUTE. (Received 9 a.m.) LONDON, January 21. The ‘‘Daily Mail’s” Vicuna correspondent states that Dr Deutsch, the former Austrian .Socialist War Minister. asserts that complete equipment, including powerful artillery, for GOO- - troops, is stored in concealed depots throughout Hungary. There is also a modern factory near Lake Balaton, producing bombs and poison gas.

A message from Paris says it is stated in the newspaper “Echo de Paris” that the military chiefs, in compliance with M. Poincare’s instructions, arc preparing without delay a definite plan of defence works on the northern and north-eastern frontiers, as a substitute for the withdrawal of the Rhineland army.
