Franc To Be Stabil- ized, By Agreement, At Devalued Rate.

(A. P. by Guardian's Special Wire)

Stabilization of the French franc, announced last (Wednesday) night by Premier Edouard Daladier, is expected to fix its value somewhere near the present market level of about three cents. ,

The exact figure is to be an- nounzczl today. Financial circles were inclined to believe It would be at about 35 francs to the dollar or 2.86 ccnIs, slightly lower than the exlstln’: VVCi.

The French action, he said, “comes within the spirit“ of that

accord. This is the third official de-
