RUSSO-GERMAN TREATY.
FRANCE STILL CONCERNED
NEW SITUATION CREATED.
BY CABLE—PRESS ASSOCIATION —COPYRIGHT.
LONDON, April 2S. The publication of the text of the Russo-German Treaty has not dispelled concern in French political circles in regard to its possible effects on the fabric of the Geneva or Locarno treaties. An active exchange of views is proceeding between London and Paris, but it is premature to talk of representations being made to Berlin. Le Temps says that Germany wants to reserve the option to choose between the 'Western Powers and Soviet Russia when the fateful hour strikes, but it is hardly conceivable such an attitude can be compatible with Germany’s unconditional entry into the League of Nations.
The Times, in a leader, says that the treaty creates a new situation in Eastern Europe, necessitating the Western Powers reconsidering their conception of the Locarno pact. lfiandje shrdlu slirdlu ctaoin nunun
