Precisely what France might offer
Spain is u secret. but it is not impos-

three-cornercd deal between France
Spain and Britain.
Spain wants Gibraltar back to make
the peninsula completely Spanish
while Britain is reported to be disposed
to accept from Spain, Ceuta, across the
strait. though negotiations are tenn
porarily suspended.

are said TO be eager TO explain to the
