In connection with the British Note to Germany, Sir John Simon, the Secretary of Blato for Foreign Affairs, announced in the fleuse of Comunane, that His Majesty's Government had already, con- kuited France and Italy, and was con- aidering discussing the European ajiua- tion with all the Versailles Treaty signatorina The Government, ba · said,. might ask for a special swambly of the Lougue of Nations in the circumstances.

It earned here that Germany's new War machines will eventually reach a... man-power strength of 100.000.

Furthermore, Germany plans to retain her freedom to build a battle flost, al though her Naval reconstruction will ag behind her Army re-organisation due to the expense, of, matching the roach and british Navics" strength.
