PARIS, Dec. 27-(0. lK-llavllk. while French deputies almost came to blows in the heat oi political debate, Premier Laval ‘ night staked the life of his government

Britain in case oi an attack by ltaly.

Announcement by the powerful Radical-Socialist group in the chamber that they could not give their confide to a cabinet whic had failed to follow the League Nations in an Ethiopian pence settlement appeared to menace the ..-- ent when the ail-import- antyole on France's foreign policy is taken tomorrow night.

The most fateful parliamentary session in recent months adjourned in angry tumult after attacks on Premier Laval led by Leon Slum, Socialist leader, who accused the Premier of forsaking the League in snrmvins the - Roars-Laval peace plan. '

(The plan in qumtion was drawn HP by M. Laval and. Sir Samuel Hoes-e, former British Foreign Bec- rotary).

MuLaval denied in his dramatic slioech that "he had redeem, uh hold Frances oﬂﬂlltlons to " ' league. He added a reproach to Premier Mussolini in these words:

"Italy _did not examine our sag. sections promptly with the under- standing we had a right to expect. Moreover a certain speech (upper- 61191.‘! Ii Ducc's defiant utterance on Dec. 18) was delivered which did not make our task any easier."
