REALIZE DIFFICULTIES

'"rhe allies realize the difficulties met by the German government and do not seek to impose too narrow an interpretation of the treaty. but they are unanimous in declaring that they cannot tolerate a continuation of the
 nfractions of the treaty of Versailles, that the treaty must be respected and remain as the basis of relations between Germany and the allies and that they are resolved 3 to take all measures, even, if necessary, the oc- cupation of additional parts of Ger man territory in order to ensure ex- ecution of the treaty. They affirm, however that they have no intention of annexing any part of the German territory
 ''At the same time the allies deem that questions arising from violation of the peace treaty. as we'll as from the measures necessary to ensure it's execution, would be more easily solved by exchanges of views between the chiefs of the government than by note Thus they decided to invite the chiefs of the German government to a direct conference with the chiefs of the allied governments and request that at the proposed meeting the Ger man government present to them ex- planation and precise propositions upon all the subjects mentioned in the foregoing.
 If a satisfactory settlement is arr rived at on these points the allied gov ernments will be willing to discuss with the German representatives any questions which affect the interna- tional order and economic well being of Germany. But Germany must un- drestand that the unity of Nthe allies for execution of the treaty is as solid as it was for war. and that the only method of taking her place in the world is Loyalty to execute the en- gagements to which she has sub scribed."
