Mr. Eden suggested that Germany might prove her sincerity by withdrawing all but a symbolical number of troops from the Rhineland demilitarised zone, and that they should give their undertaking not to increase the number of the garrison or fortify the zone at least for the period necessary for the negotiation of a new peace pact.

German Reply
London, Mar. 12. The German Ambassador, Dr. von Hoesch, this afternoon repiled to the British Foreign Secretary's sugges- tion, declaring that the German Gov- ernment cannot enter into discussions with regard to lasting or provisional limitations to Germany's sovereignty in the Rhineland, but in order to facilitate the French Government's acceptance of Germany's probans, Herr Hitler repeats that the military occupation of the Rhineland is only symbolical.
