Expects British Approval 4. n
Denying reports published abroad
that the government contemplated
military action in Morocco, the for
eign office said that the question had
not arisen. On the contrary, France
maintained close cooperation with
Great Britain and expected TO OBJ
tain British approval to any steps
taken. 1t was pointed out that there
are definite treaties governing Mo-
rocco and the foreign office said
that 1t was up to the powers with
responsibilities there to permit no
situation to arise that would render
forccful action necessary.
Not only Is the government con-
yinced, 1t was learned, that, prepa-
rations for big German cxpedi-
tionary force in Spanish Morocco
have been completed, but 1t is con-
vlnced also that Germany has pene-
trated deeply-aand dangerously

Talk Of France Striking
Newspapers, right and LETT wing
organs for once united, talked
vaguely OF France striking" to halt
the alleged German penetration In
Morocco and there were reports that
the French Atlantic feet might be
diverted from Its South Atlantic
cruise to the tip of North Africa,
ready to dart at any hour through
the Straits Of Gibraltar into the
Mediterranean-the to join a
British fleet which soon will number
more than 100 war craft.
Asserting that they had official
detailed reports Of German troop
activity in Spanish Morocco, and Of
preparations for troop landings on
big scale, spokesman said with
emphasis that France never would
tolerate a German base in Morocco.
But 1t was learned on unimpeach-
able official authority also that the
prime concern Is not German infil-
tration into Spanish Morocco, but
German inflltration into French
Morocco.

featuring Chevrolet bodies would be
closed soon because of lack Of en-
gines. Murphy was hopeful OF an
early agreement on a basis for
negotiations.
No One Agrees With Governor
No one else present at the con-
ference seemed to share his opti-
mism. Homer Martin, president Of
the United Automobile Workers and
chief strategist for the strikers, said
he would have no comment before
mid-morning. He spent four hours
comforting with Murphy and James
r. Dewey, federal labor conciliator
General Motors executives gave
no indication that an agreement was
near, and they were understood TO
be standing firm on the demand
that Shutdown" strikers leave their
plants before any direct negotiations
were started.
1t was raining today when the last
light went out in the big chevrolet
gear and axle plant here. The nignt
shift went off and as they departed
foremen told them the plant was
closed indefinitely. Shortage OF
materials forced General Motors tc

General Motors Is on q five-day

Miss Mary Grady and Ambrose
Scully are comparatively newcom-

interest In affairs of the community
to such an extent that the placing
Of them in offices has been con-
sidered by many as an ideal move
for the betterment of the Com
munity club.
Present Staff
There have been rumors, but nc
announcements OF other potential
tickets and Of course they are
awaited with expectancy. A full
