Paris, Aug. 26 P) The French Government has received a memo- randum from Spain expressing the desire of that country that the international district of Tangier be attached to the Spanish zone In The French is considering the ciucHlion brought up by Spain, but ii in genera II conceded in po-litical circle that France's reply will be an absolute refusal. The Spanish memornndu sn vs that.
