COULD HOSTILITIES BE RESUMED?
(UNITED PRESS ASSOCIATION.—COPIRIOHT.)
(AUSTRALIAN-NEW ZBALAND OABLB ASSOCIATION,)
(Received December 10, 9 a.m.) ' LONDON, 9th December,
The Daily Telegraph's correspondent at Paris states that the British Cabinet did not agree to the text of the Note addressed to Germany, as tho Supreme Council had drafted it on Saturday, and raised objections to the concluding paragraph, in which Germany was threatened with s resumption of hostilities if she did not arrange for the immediate application of the Peace terms. The British Cabinet has now accepted a new formula, and the Note has been sent to the German delegates. The Daily Telegraph is of opinion that the whole affair will increase Germany's doubts regarding the ability of the Allies to resort to military means to enforce the Peace terms, now that the state of war is formally ended. This, in the opinion of French official circles, is a vital question.
