PEACE OF THE WORLD
THE SECURITY PACT GERMANY AND THE LEAGUE .AMERICAN INFLUENCE. Press Association—By Telegraph—Copyright. LONDON, August 14. Mt Qhamherlaiu and M. Brand have reported to their respective Cabinets. British Ministers expressed satisfaction and confidence that tiio conversations would have important results. The diplomatic correspondent of the ‘ Daily Telegraph ’ emphasises the difficulties confronting the German Government in moulding public opinion to acquiesce in an application for momboreip of the League without reservations and conditions. It is believed that American influences in Berlin will bo discreetly exercised for the purpose or Inducing Germany to sock membership without delay, though it is now too late to expect her entranco-at the September Assembly. . , The correspondent affirms that similar American influences have latterly been exercised in London for the purpose of ensuring the truly bilateral character of the Pact and averting the drawbacks of another “ dictated fence.” It is difficult, he for the tench mind to accommodate itself to the bilateral idea. It, was left to the British experts, to formulate the reciprocal clause, and it proved by no means easy to persuade the French that Germany should bo authorised to act in certain flagrant emergencies without a decision of the League, as the French would in similar circumstances. —A. and N.Z. Cable. INDIAN GOVERNMENT APPREHENSIVE. GENEVA, August 14. The Indian Government, in a message to the League of Nations, states that it is' forced to the conclusion that the Peace Protocol would be inimical to India’s interests, as it would, in the peculiar circumstances of Asia, mark ter down as a nation upon which the League, under the Protocol, would ordinarily call to apply immediate _ sanctions against a recalcitrant State in the East. Tills would be a heavier burden than India could bear. —A. and N.Z. Cable.-

BERLIN, August 14.
(Received August 15, at 9.15 a.m.)
Political circles are disappointed ■with the London negotiations, which they consider have not helped to bring to a conclusion a security pact such as Germany desires. The report that M. Briand and Mr Chamberlain had agreed that Germany must enter the League unconditionally has caused a shock; so has the assertion that Franco may wage war against Germany in certain eventualities,; while the nows that Poland and Czecho-Slovakia are likely to be invited to a pact conference is received suspiciously.—A. and N.Z. Cable,
