LONDON. Jan. l3.-Thc Crniril
News declares thar as 4 result Of III"
allird discussions in Paris the Whre
aSprci of rehabilitation has under
gone Il sudden and vital change. this
hrinc shown in the drastic conditions
demanded of Germany for L renewal
of the armiStiCe.
"On authority OF an unimreaCha BILE
character" SAYS the Central News. I'll
can be- stated that Il situation exists
in Europe under which war may
break out again III any moment. TIL"
allied war council has arrived At Il
decision which means that The Brit
ish people have mistaken the appear
ance of peace for reality. This deci-
sion means thar The new British min
iStry must revise the whole scheme nf
army rehabilitation.
The decision is that Great Britain,
in proportion TO its military strength,
must maintain an army OF occupation
on The Rhine for many months. If
the rapid increase in demohilzation
recently announced were continued.
there would in 4 fnw months be no
army in France to undertak" The OBJ
legations which. by common decision
of the allies. have been placed upon
British shoulders"
