FRENCH MONEY TO
ASSIST POLAND .
Opponents of Loan See in it
. Plan to Coerce Germany.
A •despatch from Paris says: A
loan of 400,000,000 francs to Poland
was voted by the French Pastes ant
on Thursday. It is officially described
as "for the purpose of improving Po-
land's financial and economic situation,
so that it may resume Its proper place
in the European concert of nations and
play the role to which its geographic -
el position and history entitle it"
Tho vote on the measure was 515 t9
68, Many of those who voted against
it declared that the loan, while -destin
ed ostensibly for the organization of
the Polish army against "miwerrant-
ed attack from the east was really
put through as "a means of coercion
against Germany from the, west,"' The
engagement for the loan was under-
taken by the Briand Government in
1921.
Opposition to the measure in Par-
liament was based on 'the allegation
that the danger of an attack .on Po-
land from the east now was inexistent
and thus the niney was being advanced
for military purposes no longer de-
fensive, but in reality offensive.
A total of 28,733 immigrants from
the United States entered Canada in
