that body can be depended upon both
to safeguard the interests Of the

GERMANY TO JOIN
IN SECURITY PLAN
Government Ignores 0pposi-
ton of Nationalists-Opti-
miStiC on Outcome.
By the Associated Press.

BERLIN, September 19.-Complete
Indifference To possible anita gonism on
the part of the Nationalist party to
the German government position on
the proposed European security pact
IS reflected In Berlin official quarters,
where 1t is stated definitely that
the Luther Stresemann government
would participate in the coming CON
ference of foreign ministers next
month. 1t is believed the German
delegation will consist of two mem
bers of the government, in addition
to Foreign Minister Stresemann.
Germany Is Optimistic.
The informal conversations carried
on by the allied and German juridical
experts in London appear to have
stimulated considerable feeling of
optimism in German official quarters.
One of the difficulties of the situa-
ton, in the opinion of German lead
ers, is suggested in the settlement to
be reached over article XVI of the
league covenant. Germany will
argue that unless a definite modifica-
ton of this article is made, 1t should
not be forced TO submit to its ac-
ceptance for the obvious reason that
demand for the transit of foreign
troops through German territory
would constitute a casus belli politi-
cally, and in addition would harbor
serious economic menaces.
Obligation Is Seen.
Official opinion appears to assume
that Russia would not fundamentally
oppose Germany becoming a partner
to a Rhfneland pact If article XVI
were eliminated, and that the spirit
and letter Of the Rapallo treaty sug-
gest no hindrance to the conclusion
Of g. formal security pact. Neverthe-
less the German government con-
siders itself obligated to give due con-
aderation to its relations to the Soviet
government, in so far as they are
liable to collide with agreements
entered into with her western neigh
bors.
That Germany will seek 20 bring
about formal discussion of other
issues than the security pact also is
indicated in a cursory reference to
the question Of terminating the occu-
patton Of Cologne at the earliest pos
s1ble date, and a demand for certain
reforms in the present allied admin
istration of the occupied Rhinelapd.
