GERMANY SPURNS FRENCHOVERTURES Turns Cold Front on Un- official Efforts Toward Rapprochement. By the Associated Press. BERLIN, October 25.—Germany has presented a cold front to unofficial French efforts toward a Franco-Ger- man rapprochement, informed sources #aid today. | New manifestations of Germany's spirit of nationalism, fed on the speeches of Reichsfuehrer Hitler, ac- | companied a report that a French Journalist had met failure in trying to draw out Hitler on questions cur- rent to the continental situation and the Italo-Ethiopian war. Der Fuehrer stated recently at Nurnberg, “we take no position on these events and do not want to be drawn into them.” He has pictured Germany as a placid island in a sea of turmoil. To Remain Neutral ‘The journalist was Cermand de | Brinon, credited with being largely | responsible for Pierre Laval's talks with former President Hoover on the | war debt situation. De Brinon saw Hitler last week. | ‘Tacit announcement that Germany would continue to pursue a strict neu- trality policy was coupled with a flat | denial by the office of Joachim von | Ribbentrop, Germany’'s ambassador extraordinary, that he would visit | Paris soon. A representative of the foreign office made it clear, at the same time, that Germany would take its own time in replying to the League of Nations' communieation regarding sanctions against Italy, if indeed a reply was made at all. The League has asked whether Ger- | many intends to continue selling goods | to Italy. No Reason for Haste. l “There is no reason to be hasty,” | #aid the spokesman. | An official order has gone out to rectify a disposition on the part of the inspired German press to be critical of Italy’s prosecution of the Ethiopian war. (Commenting on the reported at- tempt to effect a Franco-German rap- prochement, French officials in Paris | said France probably would negotiate | with Germany soon for clarification of the Locarno pact, but that Hitler must renounce any warlike intent in East- | ern Europe before an understanding | between the two countries can be achieved.) TREATY REVISION TALKED. French Press Says London and Berlin Are Considering Plan. PARIS, October 25 (&) —Revision | of treaties in Germany's favor was| reported by the French press today | to be under consideration in London | and Berlin as an outgrowth of the Italo-Ethiopian conflict and the Reich’s withdrawal from the League of Na- tions. The noted commentator Pertinax said Prime Minister Stanley Bald- win's recent statements justified a | prediction that “when the time comes, | an effort will be put forth to bring Germany back” ino the League through a program of treaty revisions. Pertinax presumably referred to Baldwin’s recent mention of strength- | ening the League to include non- | members. ¢ | Reichsfuehrer Adolf Hitler was re- | ported in the newspaper L'Oeuvre to | be seeking to abolish the Rhineland | demilitarized zone in eventual nego- | tiations for revision of the Locarno | pact. ! Genevieve Tabouis, the newspaper's | diplomatic correspondent, said Hitler | considered an understanding with | France impossible and prefers to draw nearer to Britain for resistance | against French demands. | This writer said “Germany will en- | ergetically refuse to accept a guaran- | tee of the Rhine's demilitarized zone | in a reinterpretation of Locarno.” i “The 11th and 12th German army corps of Karlsruhe and Dusseldorf | have already intended, according to| German military orders, to take pos- session of the demilitarized zone im- mediately under a new interpretation of Locarno.” Fears in certain French circles that & rapprochement with Germany would | ellenate France’s allies in Eastern | Europe, which include Poland and | Czechoslovakia, were reported in | L'Ordre. CUMMINGS S.EES NEED OF MANY NEW G-MEN “Lots More Work Put on U. §.” | Says Attorney General, Citing Bank Insurance Work. By the Associated Press. Attorney Genefal Cummings said | yesterday he will have to ask for | “quite a lot” of new “G-men” at the | next session of Congress. Asked whether the Increase in the force of special agents of the Division of Investigation would be large, he said: “I leave that to your imagination. Lots more work has been put uponf us.” | Cummings recalled the new bank- | ing law extended “G-men” protection | to all banks that are insured by the | Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. He | added that many other new laws have | put added burdens on the present force of about 600 men, of which 200 | are accountants. | 3 _EDUCATIONAL. SPANISH ,tocor WASHINGTON Prof. from Spain.
