Paris, Feb. e.-Safeguarding Frances

relative to the police. such is the view
expressed IN quarters enjoying the con-
fidence Of the ministers here where II
is also affirmed that the French dele
gates are determined to await the dis
closure of Germany's proposals before
making known their own propositions
II Is argued that this waiting attitude
Is justified by the fact that the desire

Initiative In declaring her views. The
French cabinet possesses the unani-

Another solution OF the conference
would be regarded by the country as a

generally expressed that return to
the status quo would be preferable.
