GERMANY REFUSES
TO ACKNOWLEDGE
VERSAILLES PACT
Hitch In Negotiations With China
Produced By Dispute Over
the Treaty

Berlin, Aug 4.-Germany' refusal
to subscribe again to the Versailles
treaty in its negotiations with the
Chinese government has led to the
completion of an agreement between
the two governments which is design
ed to reStablish commercial relations
pending the drafting OF a permanent
pact.
China $ request that Germany re-
literate it's adherence to the Versailles
treaty was regarded by many here as
somewhat remarkable, inasmuch as
the Peking government refused to
sign the treaty because of the Shan
tung provisions. 1t became known
when the documents leading to the
Chino-German agreement were laid
before the Reichstag that Germany
had refused to comply with China s
request for a reaffirmation of Ger
many's adherence to the Versailles
stand that such action might preju
dice her position in case of revis-
ion of the treaty.
In advising China of the unwilling
ness of Germany again to formally
acknowledge the Versailles treaty
Foreign Minister Simons wrote: In
agreement with the instructions OF
my government | have the honor to
declare to you again that the German
government cannot acknowledge the
Versailles treaty in general terms
again, for such step would be
synonymous with the self-imposed ac-
ceptance of the treaty by Germany
and would prejudice its later revision
But Germany will make no objections
ii China avails itself of Articles 12S
to 1874 of the treaty, also of certain
other rights of the treaty. which are
of importance for China. in the pres
ent form or in an altered form, in case
revision takes place"
The. articles mention, 12S to 1S4, re-
fer especially to China and provide
that Germany shall surrender all con
cessions and special rights which il
formerly enjoyed in China.
