EXPOSED TO DANGER
THE RHINELAND ZONE GERMANY'S CONTENTION BERLIN, May 8. (Received May 8, at 11.30 p.m.) It is understood that Germany approached the British, ItaHan and Belgian Governments regarding the demilitarised Rhineland zone, which, owing to its unarmed position, she feels is exposed to danger through the Franco-Russian Pact. She contends that the zone must either be rearmed or very definite guarantees given, especially by Britain, that assistance will be forthcoming if the zone is threatened and Germany is not the aggressor. The clearing up of this question is likely'to play a vital part in future policy, and Herr Hitler is reported to be waiting further information before completing his speech for May 15.
