Hitler’s Army
Big Issue For
French Voters
THE SHAMROCK TEXAN, Shamrock. Texas
By JOHN EVANS
PARIS (/P) — German remilitari-
sation of the Rhineland and the war
■care in its wake may change many
votes in the elections for deputies
April 26 and May 3.
Adolf Hitler put political sooth-
sayers on a spot until he denounced
the Locarno pact, for as German
soldiers stomped into the Rhineland,
Observers were predicting a sharp
swing to the left.
Since then, however, the rightists
have taken full advantage of the
tense situation and their appeals
lor “a strong man at the helm” to
lace Germany may alter results.
Left Leaders Worried
Rightist leaders are warning that
the World war broke on Prance
shortly after it turned to the left
In the 1914 elections and are assert-
ing that a strong nationalist gov-
ernment, ready to assume a stem
attitude toward Germany, is the
best guarantee of peace.
Leftist leaders admit worry and
discouragement. It is against their
policies to advocate big armies and
navies.
Political meetings turn to war
he Locarno pact and
Hitler tore up the---------------
escaped punishment. The danger of
war will, however, be only one of
the thorny problems which those
of the four thousand candidates
elected to the 6)8 seats in the cham-
ber of deputies will have to face
when they assemble in June.
Money Problem Acute
Besides the war menace they must
deal with an empty treasury, the
devaluation problem and bitter in-
ternal discord.
Parliament will be under pressure
from the military-minded to streng-
then national defense and negotiate
treaties that wont be torn up like
Locarno with nothing more effec-
tive than speeches as a result.
The empty treasury is a sore spot.
Financial writers, long accustomed
to supporting national credit, make
biting observations. They recall that
France had to borrow $200,000,000
in England and that the country’s
bank account recently has been
enough for only a day’s expenses.
Government bonds, at 85 a year
ago, are down around 67 and Bank
of France stock has Hbst seven-
tenths of its 1930 prosperity value.
The "balanced budget" ran a defi-
cit the first month and the national
debt is approaching 350,000,000,000
francs, equivalent to $21,000,000,000.

a favorable visible balance (not in-
