GERMANY’S DEMANDS
BIG ISSUES INVOLVED BRITISH OFFICER’S WARNING LONDON, Oct. 2. If agreement is not reached soon, the German Army will again become the most powerful in Europe. If tne-Versailles Treaty is not . revised, a war of liberation from the treaty’s territorial clauses will follow, writes Brigadier-General J. H. Morgan in the Times.
General Morgan, British member of the Aeademie Diplomatique 'lnternationale, and a well-known political writer, says he questions whether the Government attaches greater importance to the preamble of the Versailles Treaty, imposing disarmament, than in 1.920, when the Allied Control Commission received a note- demanding authorisation of 60 armament factories, with plant of a capacity to supply six times the requirements of the authorised forces. All Germany’s former demands reappear in the disarmament note, the writer adds, including special.,. militia, tantamount to a restoration of conscription. the re-arming of millions, and th© reorganisation of the military system.
