premier strongly indicated conviction
that Frances energies henceforth

putting leadership on the European

speech that stressed equally his desire

He said, however, that the basis of
French diplomacy would continue to
be close cooperation with Britain. and
lashed out at critics who had called
the peace of Munich a French sur

He declared that if he had been
faced by an ultimatum at Munich he

The Munich pact, he asserted, was IAN

at least six weeks Of no studies and no
athletics, no books and no football,
by order OF the city Board Of Educa-

The board decided yesterday it would
no longer cucumber the future" to
keep the schools open in the face of a
SCI 1886 deficit, and ordered the schools
closed after Fridays sessions. The
order affected high schools, junior
highs, A elementary schools, and II

in Columbus there was nothing the
State could do to prevent the closing.
Slight Respite Possible.
City School Supt Emerson Lands
announced that classes might reopen
December if the regular quarterly

said, however, would guarantee opera

duce s500,000 year for five years. is

tion. but even if passed the revenues
will not be available until next year.
In an emergency move, the board
ordered special audit of the city and
county school accounts to determine if
any unpaid claims were outstanding.
County Auditor Joseph A. Lutz ad-
vised that $201 900 in real estate tax
funds would be available for schools
some time next month, but the board
said the foundation share still would
be needed if the schools were to re-
open December 3.
