Mission WASHINGTON, April 2 (AP)— Chances for 'success of the Leon Blum financial mission increased here today as American officials privately expressed approyal of the French Socialist Party's new for- eign and internal' policies. • While the Socialist manifesto said it "aspires to cement friend- ship ameng all. nations," Americans were heartened by its open concil- New York to Fete French Emissary WASHINGTON, April 2 (API- Mayor William O'Dwyer of New York has invited^ French Special Envoy Leon Blum to be the city's guest of honor April '12, French embassy officials said today.

iation of Western opinion regard- ing Soviet Rttssia and particularly by its strong line against collabora- tion with the Communists. * Officially Blum is here seeking TJ. S. aid as the representative of all French parties. However, the visiting Socialist leader felt the pinch of political forces working in France while he presented his country's economic condition and aspirations as a basis for American assistance. In this, the immediate denial by Foreign Minister Georges Bidault of reports (not published by the Associated Press) which said in ef- fect if the U. S. failed France, she would turn to Russia, appeared to take into consideration Blum's dif- ficult mission here. One high American official was asked what, if any, considerations were being given to the political importance of a successful Blum mission? He replied in effect: MAY AID SOCIALISTS ".We fully realize if Blum returns to France with a favorable expres- sion of America's attitude toward the French economic problem it will undoubtedly strengthen the Socialist Party. "While the coming French na- tional elections are viewed as a French internal matter, a strength- ened Socialist Party in 1946 would be regarded here as a stabilizing influence." .... "Well, what about the MRP?" he was asked further. "We want to help them, too," this official said. Questions about the influence of the Communist Party elicited the reply that "someone else" already had begun to strengthen its hand. COMMUNISTS HELPED The official made it clear he re- ferred to Russia's recent offer of 500,000 tons of grain for France as originally announced by. Communist Leader Maurice Thorez. To say Blum kept aloof from this type of American-Soviet interplay over supplies as a measure to gain French political favor, would not be entirely correct. However, Blum held such obvious tactics to a minimum. In this the French-American negotiations are markedly different from the recent British-American loan talks.
