POINCARE’S DILEMMA.
MUST EAT HIS OWN WORDS. OTHERWISE IGNOMINIOUS DEFEAT. Per Press Association —Copyright. LONDON, March 9 The Sunday Express says the franc is falling and is bringing M. Poincare down with it. It is his policy and no other that has knocked the bottom out of the French credit. The franc which nominally, is worth 9Jd, would only buy twopence yesterday. On the other hand Germany’s currency is all but stabilized. M. Poincare’s dilemma is that if he wants money' from Germany in order to save France from collapse and himself from ignominious defeat at the coming elections he must leave the Ruhr and eat every word he has spoken during the last fourteen months.
