HITLER’S OFFER
Question as to Security i British Ofiieiul Wireless.) Rugby, March J 7. Lord Cecil, in a broadcast speech to the United States last night, expressed the view that Germany’s reoccupation or the Rliineland should, as the first step, be referred to the Hague Court. Referring to Herr Hitler's offers of a 25 years’ pon-aggression pact, he recalled that Germany was already bound by the Briand-Kellogg I’aet never to use war as an instrument of national policy. Regarding the offer of agreeing to a fresh demilitarised zone, he asked what security was there that Herr Hitler would not at some future time march into such new zone. The recent secret and sudden increase in the German Air Force, and Germany’s earlier abrupt withdrawal from tlie League of Nations were incidents which must Ik- remembered in considering Herr Hitler's offer for the parH al limitation of air forces and his willingness to rejoin the League.
