AMERICAN RUMOUR
PLAN IN BRITAIN
DE JURE GERMAN CABINET IN LONDON
NEW YORK, October 23
The Washington correspondent of the Associated Press of America says that the Secretary of State, Mr. Cordell Hull," denies knowledge of a reported British plan to recognise a de jure German Government seated in London.
The denial refers to a copyright story published by the "New York Daily News" stating that British recognition would accompany promulgation of peace proposals acceptable to a de jure Government, the object being to emphasise that the German people and the Allies do not desire war and to answer Mr. Lloyd George's peace group. Proposed appointments, the story adds, are: Chancellor, Dr. Herman Rauschning, former Nazi President of the Danzig Senate; Foreign Minister. Dr. Rudolf Breitscheid; and Finance Minister, Dr. Joseph Wirth. England and France would grant £2,000,000 credit to enable co-operation.
