BY ASSOCIATED PRESS

France today tried to find COM
promise that would bring Russia in

Hitler and Mussolini inspected Ger
man and italian Notifications along
the French frontier.
French diplomats hoped to bridge
conflicting views between Great Bri-
tain and Russia by working out a
plan for strong alliance which would
be acceptable to all three nations.
Russia's stand for reciprocal mill
tary pledges among the three powers
is regarded as elastic enough to per-
nit compromise with the British
who feared a hard and fast alliance
might force Japan and Spain into
still closer ties with the Rome-Ber-
lin axis.
Next Move
Diplomats of Great Britain, France
and Russia have the opportunity to
face the negotiations at Geneva,
