Premier Edouard Daladlcr OF
France, who flew here for one OF
the most important diplomatic dis

formed last night that Britain IS
reluctant to launch any "provoc-
ativc" Anglo French military
talks before Fuehrcr Adolf Hit

The French premier and war
minister. accompanied by Foreign
Minister Georges Bonnet will en-

a serious effect, it was pointed
out. on French and British nego-
