Regarding the negotiations Of a
reported alliance between Great

said to have indicated that in case
France should be in a position
where she must decide between an
alliance with Great Britain and
the guarantees Of Germany, she
should decide from the latter. He
is asserted to have expressed the
opinion that the Versailles treaty,
with the coercive measures it al

with Great Britain, which also car
