Berlin, March 7.

Ger- German troops have entered the demilitarised zone. many has assured the Ambassadors that Germany was sending only a few battalions to the Rhineland as a demonstration, un- ostentatiously, and does not intend the reoccupation of the Rhine- land in force.

"A Cologne message states that the reoccupation started at 5 p.m. German troops entered Deutz on the east bank of the Rhine.. opposite Cologne, and later marched into Mainz, Koblenz, Cologně and Frankfort. They were frantically cheered.

LOCARNO PACT DENOUNCED

Herr Hitler started speaking at 12.04 p.m. It is reported that the following points were included in the note handed by Herr Hitler to the Ambassadors to-day:

1. Germany attacks the Locarno Paci because of the Franco-Russian Pact;

2. She regards herself free from the stipulations concerning the demilitarised Zone;

3. She expresses her readiness to agree to a new demilitarised zone, provided Belgium and France are also demilitarised zones;

4. She offers to sign a 25-years' non-aggression pact in the west provided Italy and Britain agree to

become the guarantors;

5. Germany offers to let Holland enter the pact:

6. She offers an air pact in the west and a non-agression pact in the east, including Lithuania;

7. Germany expects that within a reasonable time. through friend- ly negotiations, the question of the colonies will be amicably adjusted.

If all these matters can be agreed on Germany is ready to return to the League, but the Covenant must be separated from the Treaty of

Versailles.

Reuter's Berlin correspondent understands that a plebiscite on Herr Hitler's foreign policy will be held on March 29.
