PEACE MENACED
FRANCE AND GERMANY SITUATION DESCRIBED AS SINISTER RIVAL CLAIMS (United Press Aesn.—Telegraph Copyright.) London, October 9. Mr J. L. Garvin, in an editorial in the Observer in regard to FrancoGerman relations, says: “The present situation is as sinister and menacing as the situation before the war. France with judicial pleas is demanding that her position among the . nations be specially secured and uniquely guaranteed. Germany is claiming full freedom and equality. Ultimately nothing on earth can prevent her from achieving it on the present lines. Peace in Europe is almost sure to perish in another catastrophe within five years. In this event it is most improbable that peace will be preserved in the Far East or that the United States will escape the greatest conflict in her history. If treaty revision and disarmament are not faced together within a year or two and another FrancoGerman war becomes inevitable, Britain must at all costs keep out of it.”
