Germany, Italy, Hungary, Lithuania and Bulgaria want immediate territorial changes made in their favor. Prance, Belgium, Poland, Crechoslo- vakla, Rumania and Jugoslavia, united by interlocking alliances, are de- | termined to prevent these changes, the | mdre 50 as they would all be at their m revisionist group, as those desir- | ing changes are called, is less coherencl m the status quo group.

M, Briand had led his countrymen .to believe that Germany's immediate reaction would be one of | gratitude and friendship toward France. Meanwhile, Italy seems to have made overtures of an entente to Germany, well | whose government, followjng Dr. Gustav Strescmann’s death, had taken on a National'st tone. Germary seems to have declined these overturcs, but at the same time seeing, as it thought, France’s position weakened by the Franco-Italian tension and the Franco-British break, and also perhaps alarmed for the future by an unexpected progress in’the Bn |lation and stability of the new Polish state—Germany made the evacuation of the Rhineland an occasion not of manifestations of friendship toward Prance, but of hostility. Evacuation of the Rhineland, which freed Germany from any immediate military menace, coincided, apparently, with the fulfiliment of the so-called Von Seeckt plan, under which Germany has been secretly rearming, it is said, in {such a way as now to have an effective force of 500,000 men at its disposal for immediate use. (Gen. von Seeckt was once head of the Reichswehr.) Briand Memorandum Issued. In order to force Great Britain, Ger- many, Italy and others to declare them- selves once for.all and to make A choice between peace on the present . lines or an indefinite period of .disturbance, France issued the Briand memorandum on a European union, which, moreover, Prance sincerely favors. The German mvernment in its reply intimated that Germany can join no such union unless the frontiers are first revised. Gott- fried R. Treviranus, German minister for the occupied territories, has since to demand the return of the so-called corridor from Poland. ‘These unexpected results of the evacu- ation of the Rhineland bave tended to discredit M. Briand and his policies in Prance. Feeling that Germany has duped them through Briand, the French people seem to be tending rapidly to- ward a sort of new self-reliant nation- alism. They are fortifying frontie Strengthening the navy, planning to organize the army and are gathering large gold reserves. ‘The little entente—indeed, the whole French system of alliances—is drawing closer together. Germany is on the verge of -elections, in which big Na- tionalist and Communist ins are feared, and at Gemeva In mber Germany will probably formally raise the question of a revision of the fron- tiers, This is the present situation, FEARNHEAD PRAISES BEAUTY OF CAPITAL Former Mayor of Johannesburg, South Africa, Leaves for West After Visit.

Great Britain's choice of United States and an empire un- fon, instead of Europe, obliged it to to Prance and other members that, in case of a_ crisls, must not count on the British navy's supporting the system of the wle until Great Britain is reas- sured regarding the intentions of the United States. This attitude on Great WIII part ‘had an immediate effect in weakening genera! confidence in the League’s efficacy. Otte Project Adds to Unrest.
