GERMANY SUSPICIOUS
OF FRENCH MINISTERS’ VISIT TO LONDON. SECURITY GUARANTEES. (Press Association.—Copyright.) (Received 12.45 p.m.) Berlin, February 1. German newspapers, following an official lead, comment outspokenly on the French Ministers’ visit to London. The Koelnische Zeitung says that England, France and Italy apparently want to revoke part of the peace treaties dealing with armaments, and replace it with, a disarmament convention which would in fact limit armaments. Germany suggests that France merely desires to get England to shoulder further security guarantees. The British Ambassador to France, Sir George Clerk, has been in touch with the French Prime Minister and Foreign Minister, MM. Flandin' and Laval, with the object of arranging the lines upon which the discussions they are to have with British Ministers shall proceed. M. Laval is expected to return to Paris this afternoon, but M. Flandin may spend the week-end in the country with English friends. According to British newspapers the main aim of the British Ministers will be to “vitalise” the Geneva agreement of December, 1932, which stipulated" for equality of rights.
