GERMANY AND SOVIET.
THE TREATY POSITION. (British Official Wireless.) Received December 10, 11.6 a.m. RUGBY, Dec. 9. The Foreign Secretary (Air Eden) was asked in the House of Commons to-day whether Germany had repudiated the Treaty of Rapallo. He replied that the Treaty of Rapallo was a treaty of friendship between Germany and the Soviet Union, signed in 1922. It was superseded by the German-Soviet treaty of friendship signed at Berlin in April, 1926, which was valid for five years from the date of its ratification in Juno of the same year. In May, 1931, the Berlin treaty was extended by the signature of a special protocol providing that each of tho contracting parties could denounce it on giving a year’s notice, but not before June, 1933. As far as I am aware neither of the contracting parties has so far denounced this treaty.”
