BCATTT AV Writer You can in wife four- letter word everybody knows If France could whip her debt probWm, she could go a long way twward whipping her every cither problem internal and external. For that reason Washington observers of the world scene are pricking up their ears over Premier Edouard Daladier's "three- plan for economic mobilization of the nation." They think it is far more aisnificant an the strike news or the Italian hubbub lor colonies. The experts read into M. Dala- plan a scheme to entice capital to France.

For if Trance can guarantee a three-year period of labor peace and internal stability, a decade-long flight of might be halted, and the Bank of France once more could face the world with bulging coffers of gold. Daladier's Job Tough These same experts have their doubts, however, that the three- year plan will be easy of achievement. For the sacrifice demanded of Trench labor is and already "Daladier is being called a dictator. The experts summarize the situation like this: France presents a picture oi changing cabinets, each of which since 1928 has lacked either the courage or the ability to try a lonf term solution of the financial problem created by a series of post-war drains. The experts cite you Charles Hist, the noted French economist, who insists such financial facing of facts ai three-year plan must be attempted if France is io avoid internal disaster.

Internal disaster might invite aggressive dictators to dismember the French colonial empire while the mother country ii busv at to worn. Situation Getting France is spending each year on government one-third more money than she collects in taxes, and ihe spread is increasing all the time. She has often resorted to inflation, including the big inflation of 1928, without pulling her- seit out of the hole. The depression brought the world's attention to the persistent state of French financial crisis. In 1931 it became apparent that France was on a financial toboggan her then heavy reserves of gold.

In that year, the national income of 250 billion francs hit the It has melted persistently despite watering of national mon- ev Now it stands at 190 billions. Tax collections fell off with income. The deficit was 4 billion trance in 1934. In 1938 it was double that. Gold moved out.

Irrespective of political philosophy, and disregarding whatever social uneasieness may prevail, Frenchmen of all classes agree in wanting to put their money in a sale There is not a single Frenchman who has funds which he cannot immediately use who does not reflect whether it might not be stf- er to send them abroad than to keep them at home That's what the economists call the flight of capital.

He devalued Ihe franc from 20 to four cents, almost balanced the budget, and stemmed the flight of capital. 2. The When national income to slough off, tax collections dropped. Deficit again mounted.

A new flight of capital developed. The franc, inflated finally was cut from gold entirely last year. 3. The rise of Because of German rearmament under Nazi leader, France doubled national defense costs between 1934 and 1938. She now devotes one-third of her annual spending for armaments, one- third to debt charges and public works, and the remianing third to running the regular establishment.
