ON the Moroccan question has not
changed since yesterday. except that
her determination is still firm not to
make any further concessions. The
situation was summed up today by a
diplOmatiSt. who said:
I'VE have tried Cancellation with
Germany and 1t did not succeed. and
now we will stand firm -
1T is reported in parliamentary cir.
cles that this attitude which France
has assumed is due in part to the in
timation from England that she was
compromising the entente cordialc by
making too many concessions before
Germany.
The possibility of war is again being
discussed. The feeling that war
will come is particularly strong
among the deputies. who say that
France must be prepared for any

they were at the time OF the crisis
