FRANCE STILL ARMED, GERMAN DECLARES.
BERLIN, December 1. General Groener, in an interview, vigorously protested that France was not carrying out her solemn undertaking to disarm, after Germany had done so. He said that this must result in an unbearable disproportion of armaments in Europe. The Inter-Allied Disarmament Commission had confiscated 130,000 machine guns in Germany, 60,000 v guns, 15,700 aeroplanes, 27,700 aeroplane engines, and of 10,000 factories capable of making armaments 600 had been destroyed and others were so transformed as to be useless for military purposes. Germany could now be overrun by the French and Belgian standing armies of 740,000 men, 1600 aeroplanes and 2000 tanks.
