neighborhood. There appears to be no less than three army divisions within str'king distance of the French from ter on line less than a hundred miles Ill length. If general campaign had been initiated there was sufficient Ger man force. in the opinion of the ex- perts here, to have broken through the Trench lines at any point where there were no great fortresses.
 ADVANCE MAY
 BE TEMPORARY
 According to these same calculations. tnfs German advance might be onIv temporary, as it is known the French army is gathered in great strength in the fortified towns of Strassburr and Nancy and as it would be only a aues- ton or time before they would fall upon the German Hanks in an effort 10 Isolate and destroy or capture the invading army before it could bring uu It's reserves. ~'
 so far as can be discerned here. the German campaigns in the east at this stage at least are rather defensive than o.fensive. Reports have come from Ber- Tn that German troops actually have crossed the Russian frontier south of Dsnzic. But this movement is believed to be calculated simply to harrass the Russians and to retard organization of the army of the Czar.

In spite of this and of the prompt re- fusal by the Belgian government to ac- cept the agreement offered to Germany as the price of the violation of Bel giar neutrality. German forces pene- t,ated the little buffer state at two
 points on their way 10 the French from tier.
 The German point of view In regard to the situation brought about was ex-
 plained at the German embassy as fol- lows:
 "The German staff is reliably in- formed that French troops arc as-
 sembling In great numbers on the Bel gian frontier preparatory to crossing. "The German government. therefore. informed the Belgian government that if. for strategical reasons, German t. oops wt<. compelled to traverse Bel Eian territory, this move should not be considered in any way a war1ike measure directed against Belgium. but only as a necessity imposed by French initiative. and that if Belgium offers no armed resistance to such a move
 ment, Germany will guarantee the Bel gian government the maintenance of it's territorial integrity and sovereignty and the fullest compensation for any inconvenience caused by the passage of the imperial troops"
 The German embassy staff also stated
 
 arise in connection with German troops crossing the Dutch frontier or in any
 way interfering with that neutrality.
 Oppose Intervention
 A small croup of radicals of the House
 of Commons met during adjournment to-
 day and adopted resolution that there
 was not sufficient reason in the present situation for Great Britain intervening in the European war. The government was urged to continue negotiations with Germany with a view 10 maintaining British neutrality.
 When the House reassembled. the for eign secretary made his statement with | respect 10 Belgium. These members then protested that the secretary had not made out a case for war.
 Phillip F. Morre liberal, said the best that could be said for the entente after eight years. was that 1t was going to , land England in a war simply because a few German soldiers wanted to cross Belgium.
 The laborites joined in the protest. de- claring 1t was a war made by the diplom- atistsfi not by the people
 J. Keir Hardie asked what action was going to be taken to alleviate the suf- ferings of those who would be hard press ed by the war. He said he would do all he could to arouse the working men against the governments proposals. Chancellor of the Exchequer David I.loyd-George announced that the govern
 ment had made arrangements for war
 risks for ships and cargoes, of which full details would be given later. The cabinet held session during the recess and was escorted to and from the House by cheering crowds. Arthur J. Balfour a leader of the op- position. closing the debate. said the speeches of those who criticized Sir Ed
