if France or Belgium is attack
aced by an aggreSsor.
Debate in the House of Com
mons on foreign affairs ended
with loud cheers for Chamber
lain's declaration and was seen
as marking a personal triumph
for his policies, which include
conclusion Of an Anglo Italian
agreement.
DRIFTING" ASSAILED
The laborite opposition made
no attempt to challenge the gov
ernment by forcing a vote Of con-
fidence, knowing that in any vote
the prime minister would have
won an overwhelming victory.
Clement Attlee, laborite leader in
Parliament, assailed Chamber
lain's speech, nevertheless.
Attlee termed the governments
foreign policy one of weakness,
drift and uncertainty" He de-
clared Britain had bowed to force,
"only postponing war instead OF
standing firm"
In his speech, Chamberlain re
fused to make any advance guar
antee regarding the independence
of Czechoslovakia.
SEEN AS WARNING
Observers here considered the
French reaction to Chamberlain's
speech highly significant. Paris
government officials regarded it
as a warning to Germany to keep
hands off other Central European
countries.
Authorities in London consid-
cred the general tone of the prime
minister's remarks as the stern
est warning Britain has delivered
to Europe to keep the peace since
the dark days Of 1914.
Winston Churchill called Cham
berlain's outline of policy fine"
But he declared Britain's guaran-
tee to France amounts to a de-
fensive alliance and urged "defi-
mite, open obligations on both
Sides" as well as a complete in
terchange of information between
British and French military gen.
eral Staffs.
MAJOR WAR DOUBTED
"There is no immediate dan
ger of a major war breaking
out regarding Czechoslovakia,"
said Churchill. Modification of
the Danuhian states, however,
is a danger Of capital magni-
tude to the British Empire"
Government circles here were
heartened by Chamberlain's dec
laration that the British rearma-
ment program would be speeded
up. At the same time, it was
learned that the United States
and Britain are discussing the pos
Sibility of invoking the 1885 Lon.
don Naval Treaty eScalator clause
for construction of oversize bat
