London, June 4. Although there is no official British comment on, or reaction to, yesterday's declaration by Senator Vandenberg to the Senate that the United States might be forced to sign separate peace treatles with Germany and Austria, it has already aroused speculation here among diplomatic observers as to the repercussions of such a move on British foreign policy. In the matter of a German treaty, the terms of the Anglo-Soviet Treaty would appear to rule out any possibility of Britain concluding a separ- ate peace treaty with Germany. The format position with re- just those aims which the off- to the Austrian question rial United States policy la is less clear since Britain, was seeking to attain. never in a state of declared war While Britain's ofBeinl po- with Austria and could be argued that 'trenty or agree- ment with Austria would not therefore fall into the category of a pace treaty.
