The statement of Premier Camille

1t did not indicate what specific
measures the government would take
to strengthen the franc other than
that there would be no foreign ex-
change control.
The heavy speculation in the franc,
the cabinets statement said, was the
fruit of psychological and political
reasons. These were cited as pri-
marily rumors of international ten
sion. OF social agitation in France and
OF the instability of the government.
To lay these rumors, the COM

to obtain the respect of other powers
for a policy of nom intervention in

Frances adherence to her monetary

temporary and whether the Peoples
