FRENCH INTERNAL
SITUATION SERIOUS
London and Paris Con.
cerned Over Significant
Outbreaks.
BY CONSTANTINE BROWN.

The new French revolutionary out
breaks, following Immediately upon
Premier Doumergue's radio appeal to
the nation for closer cooperation
with the government, without which
France may be threatened with an
other disastrous invasion. is causing
again considerable worry in Paris and
London.
The British, who have heretofore
followed policy Of no official en-
tanglements with any European ma
tion, are so fully aware Of the dangers
which will threaten the peace Of Eu-
rope should France be permitted to
become a weak state, that they are
considering a plan to guarantee
Frances security by direct alliance.
But the internal situation in France
is more serious than 1t appears on the
surface.
Outbreaks Significant.
The two outbreaks which took
place yesterday are particularly sig
nificant because they occurred in two
places so entirely different from each
other.
Toulon, where the first rioting broke
out, is strong socialistic center
with communistic tendencies. Conse-
quently disorders there are nothing
out of the ordinary.
The riots at Tours. on the other
hand, have caused considerable sur
prise. Tours is frequently called the
French oxford. 1t is an intellectual
town with a good college and many
schools, and the population is gen.
orally quiet and law abiding. 1t is
the last place in France where revo-
lutionary troubles were expected.
General Outbreak Possible.
The outbreaks, which were easily
quelled yesterday, are none the less
significant. They show how the wind
blows today in France and indicate
that unless the Doumergue cabinet is
capable of handling adequately the
financial situation and bring to book
all the individuals involved in the
Stavisky scandal, regardless as to how
highly placed they are, more trouble
can be expected all over the country.
Although Doumergue has spoken
very plainly to the French people
about the possible disastrous results
to France of this revolutionary spirit,
it appears that his speech has made
little impression lin the country.
Doumergue is undoubtedly liked by
the people, but the discomfort is due
to the fact that the French are tired
of hearing their leader talk while no
drastic action Is taken to purge the
country of its ills, which have come
into evidence so much during the last
few months.
