SPECIAL TO THE "TELEGRAPH"

STOCKHOLM, APRIL 10 ̊ (UP),—THE SWedish goveRNMENT IS EXPECTED TO REVEAL ITS REACTION TO "CERTAIN GERMAN PROPOSALS,” ACCORDING TO AN OFFICIAL PROCLAMATION|| BROADCAST FROM STOCKHOLM LAST NIGHT.

Usually discriminating foreign diplomats in London believe that the embroilment of Sweden in the war is only a question of a few days.

If, as anticipated, the Allies send a big expeditionary force to Narvik with a view-probably with Swedish co-operation-of themselves seizing the Kiruna iron-fields, it is likely that Hitler will land troops in southern Sweden and along the Swedish coast in the Gulf of Bothnia.

Any eventual German intrusion in the south would immediately threaten Stockholm, the Swedish capital.
