The more the allies can be baited, the more Germany believes she will benefit. This is in harmony with the principle upon which Germany fought the war. There is no basic difference between the ruthless conduct of Germany during the war, and the in- solent attitude of her reparations delegates at London. The situation is full of danger. Germany is trying to find ot how much real unity exists among the allies and how far their differences go. That means Germany is beginning liminary observations for another war.
