Covert Raid Kills Spies; Fails Main ObjectiveIt is a well known fact that Italy has spies among us. The government has been criticized for allowing this to continue. And recently it has been taking steps to change that. A covert raid, conducted by the French intelligence agency, has purged many of the spies within our nation. At two in the morning French secret police burst into the Hotel de Paris. Shots were heard and by five the hotel was safe to enter again. However while at first it was believed that the combatants were Italian spies, it has been leaked through an unnamed source that they were in fact spies of other nations. Our source did not tell us the nationalities of these spies to prevent loss of relations with those nations but he has stated that they were not enemies of France such as Germany or Nationalist Spain.
French Military BuildupThe government has once again shown their heartfelt desire to defend our nation against any enemy. They recently passed a bill mandating additional military spending and raising taxes. This would have been highly unpopular and perhaps the death of our government except that they have shown that they are spending every last franc on something worthwhile. New tools are invented, factories built and planes are constructed and the French people respect that their money is being well spent.

The Spanish SituationSpain is having a rough time. Our government has supported the Republicans immensely, however they continue to lose ground against the Nationalists. Our government has given aid, weapons, and even volunteer troops to the Republic and they seem to be unable to put them to good use. Is Spain doomed to Fascism?
What's the Biggest Threat to France Today?Many issues plague our nation. The Spanish Civil War has a danger of going badly, peasants revolt in Syria, strikes rage at home, Italian spies reside within our nation, the German threat looms, our army is small and the Belgian border remains virtually undefended. And so we ask you, the French people, what do you think is the greatest threat to France today. Mail in your response, let your voice be heard!
