FRENCH CALL
RESERVES, WAIT
PACT MEANING
Paris.—France called hundreds of
thousands of reservists to the colors
to match Germany’s forces and sat
tight Tuesday night on its hope that
Soviet Russia is up to no serious al-
liance with Nazi Germany.
Premier Edouard Daladier stalked
out of an hour and a half Cabinet
meeting in the War Ministry to talk
with calm, blue-eyed Generalissimo
Maurice Gamelin.
Gamelin, commander-to-be of
French-British land forces should
war come, and supreme commander
of his nation’s land, sea and air
armies, was said to have told Dala-
dier that they wfci c materially pre-
pared for any eventuality.
The number of reservists called
was estimated in the neighborhood
of 800,000 but the War Ministry’s
plans for Wednesday remained sec-
ret. The superior war council met
early in the day and was expected
to meet again Wednesday.
After the Cabinet meeting, only a
brief communique was issued saying
that new instructions had been wir-
ed to French Ambassadors abroad.
The Cabinet meets again at the Ely-
sec Palace with President Albert Lc-
brun Thursday morning.
It was commonly believed the Cab-
inet also put the finishing touches
to the last series of military decrees
necessary to prepare the
forces for any necessary test.
Officials said Daladier had decid-
RICHLAND BAPTIST
CHURCH EXPERIENCES
A GREAT REVIVAI
A line of 18 happy men, womer
boys and girls stood in the clea
water of a spring pond near On
Richland Baptist Church. This grouj
had surrendered ttf Christ during th<
recent revival meeting, and were de
daring to the world their allegiene,
to Him. There were also ten othei V
additions to the church by letter an<v
statement. God gave us a gracious
wide-spread revival and many are re r1
joicing together in the joy of Chris-
tian faith.
Rev. R. E. Streetman of the First j
Baptist Church in Cooper did th<A'
preaching. His messages were clear,
heart-searching, and true, and we|
feasted upon them. The Richland
church is especially grateful to Coop
er for allowing their pastor to come.
He is a congenial and lovable fel-
low-worker, and is truly one of
God’s men. — Meredith E. Wyatt,
Pastor.
ed not to call Parliament, The Pre-
mier obtained decree powers last No-
vember that made such a call unnec-
essary-—powers designed specifically
to enable France to move as fast and
as secrotly as the dictators.
One of the main reasons for all
these precautions appeared to be
that the French Government did not
know just what the German-Soviet:
armed! “nnounecm<,nt of » nonaggression
j pact meant, but was determined to
‘ so fortify the nation that nothing
could catch it napping.
