FRANCE SHOCKED BY GERMAN PACT WITH RUSSIA.
CLEVER EVASION OF WESTERN CONTROL. By 1 Telegraph.—Press Assn.—Copyright; “ Times ” Service. (Received April 27, 10 a.m.) LONDON. April 6. The Paris correspondent •of “The Times” says: “Comment upon the Russo-German Treaty is restrained in the absence of the text, but the Treaty his undoubtedly shocked France;- It is regarded as a definite German step aiming at freedom from the Western control established under the peace treaties. It is considered that Germany has cleverly taken advantage of the central position in order to become the pivotal European State. Esp'ecial misgiving. exists regarding the reported condition that Russia and Germany have agreed to consult upon their action whenever the international situation . affects their common interests.” The Berlin correspondent of “ The Times” says: “If Soviet Russia was showing the smallest sympathy towards the League of Nations the Treaty would not be regarded most seriously, but the general impression is that Germany henceforward will lie allied not only to a non-League, but also to an antiLeagiie Power.”
