GERMANY’S AIM
ARMY CREATORS VIEW RESTORATION OF POWER FRENCH RECONCILIATION THOUGHT UNLIKELY [ Australian Press Assn. ] Received Oct. 31, 10.32 p.m. BERLIN, Oct. 30. The aim of Germany’s foreign policy should be the restoration of Germany as a great military power, declares General von Secckt, creator of Germany’s post-war army, in his forthcoming book, “The Future Reich.” General von Seeckt sees little hope of reconciliation between France and Germany. He says France has only one idea —namely, to render Germany, for ever, impotent. She has, through a peace treaty, obtained much in this direction. Under France’s leadership Germany is now burdened for two generations with a tribute, less intended to strengthen flourishing French industry than to repress the economic renaissance of Germany. But false is the assumption that a nation like Germany can be enslaved for generations. The Treay of Versailles created a series of problems for Europe which are difficult, if not impossible, to solve by pacific means.
