CREATING MISTRUST

FRENCH PRESS CAMPAIGN GERAI AN RESENTMENT PEACEFUL INTENT lONS (Klee. Tel. Copyright —United Press Assn.) (Received November 25, noon.l LONDON, Nov. 24. The Berlin newspapers are unanimous in liercely condemning tire Petit Parisien for publishing the alleged secret documents. The Berliner Tageblatt says the Petit Parisien’s om. aim is to stifle all desire for understanding between the nations and wreck peaceful advances. • The Volkische Boebachter says these forgeries are the criminal manoeuvres of a newspaper owned by an armaments factory. It is particularly unfortunate that the publication synchronises with Herr Hitler’s declaration of peaceful intentions, Le Matin’s interview with Herr Hitler caused a deep impression in diplomatic and political circles in London. The Daily Telegraph says it is bound to hasten the opening of direct negotiations.

Le Figaro declares that Herr Hitler is emulating the German soldier who cries “kamerad,” and then uses the machine gun. It adds: “Britain is Franco’s great hope and ally in the event of war. as in 1914.” Le Republique calmly advocates ascertaining exactly what both sides desire. Le Loeuvre asks if both sides desire peace why should they not confer on Hie means of achieving it? German newspapers continue to deny the authenticity of the alleged secret document published in the Petit Pari•sien. The Lokal Anzeiger offers £250 to anyone producing the original and establishing proof of authenticity.
