L’Oeuvre reported from Geneva today that representatives of various powers were suggesting a collective boycott of the Olympic games scheduled to be held in Berlin next August as a sanction for Germany’s renunciation of the Lecarno treaties.

No official move has yet been made for withdrawal of the French team from the games, but the possibility has been discussed in Paris sporting circles.
