Geneva. March 9.-Gprmany secret
policy since the last Paris conference
and her future plans after the London
runture are illuminatingly outlined in
snpCiNI reports the correspondent was
privileged 10 see Yesterday. These re-
ports. which come from various but
equally reliable sources, eliminate in the
conclusion that the rupture OF the Lon
don negotiations was deliberately pro-
vOkpd by the German Government. whose
envoys were sent 70 London with definite
instructions to force the Allies into
military action against Germany in
pursuance of a secret PLAN adopted In
Berlin many weeks ago.
Ever since the fixing of Germany's
war debt at the Paris conference ana
in the same degree as the date OF the
plebiscite in Upper Silesia approached:
German statesmen and military ana
financial rcactiOnarles VINO dominated
them began to incline to the conviction
that the tim" had at last come TO break
off nil negotiation with the Allies and
lihprnte Germany from the fetters OF
the Versailles Treaty. The Allies made
a big mistake in believing Germany
was bluffing this time Just because she
had bluffed so often before. go.
nIn thp opinion of German politi-
cians the situation was no longer
the same "a in the days of Spa, Ihey
estimated that the Allies had been
growing continually weaker, both hnan-
Cially and in military assets IN the IN
teryaI, that the general European situa
ton had become much more critical ana
that these things were contributing TO
Daralvzn allied power. All these con
sidrratiOnS confirmed the Germans IN
the belief that they had nothing TO lose
and much to gain by forcing the Alhes
