NO REVENGE.
IN GERMAN POLICY. Secret Army a Jules Verne Tale. "ONE-SIDED" DISARMAMENT. (By Cable.—Press Association.— CopjrightJ BERLIN, May 10. The Foreign Minister, Herr Streselnann, addressed a meeting of the People's party yesterday. He said the parade of the "Steel Helmets" and similar demonstrations connected with the traditions of the old German Army, did not indicate a departure from the Government's foreign policy. Such organisations, he said, were only a psychological reflex of the one-sided disarmament policy. The suggestion that a secret, dormant army existed alongside the Reichswehr— an army which would awaken in a flash and hurl itself against Germany's neighbours—was a mere fairy tale, worthyof Jules Verne. Herr Stresemann recalled the declaration of the Cabinet that it had renounced all idea of a policy of revenge. "My own name," he said, "is so closely identified with Germany ? s foreign policy that I could not remain Foreign Minister if it were altered."
