GERMAN ENJOYS.
INSIST NATION
Be NEUTRA[
Use Of German Soil in Any
Possible War Is
s!.st. League Issue.

LOCARNO, Switzerland, Oct. ..
-R)--Although NJ BRAND, the
French foreign minister, and DR.. LII.
jther, Germany's chancellor, had Il
heart to-heart talk in the quietudc, OF
secluded spot on Lake Maggiore
Wednesday on the subject how best
to bring about lasting peace IN Eu-
rope, Germany continues to pursue
persistcntly a campaign against per-
hitting German soil to be used as a
theater of combat in any possible war
among her ncighbors.
Such utilization of German terri
tory would be conceivable under the
provisions of the covenant of the
League of Nations concerning move
ments of troops against warning ma
ton.
Both NJ. BRAND and DR.. Luther ex-
pressed the determination to do every
thing humanely possible to provide
against future warfare and for an en-
during peace.
The meeting of the French and
German statesmen was the outstanding
feature Of the security negotiations.
1t served to induce high degree OF
optimism among observers Of the stu
alton here.
But Germany still wants the allies
as members of the League of Nations
to subscribe at Locarno to some un.
dertaking engaging their support OF
the German Interpretation of the
covenant of the league which will per-
NIT Germany, like Switzerland, to
maintain her neutrality. This would
mean exceptional treatment for Ger
many which the allies feel they are not
authorized to countenance.
The German spokesman said today
that if they could claim the aid Of
the allies in this respect, Germany
would enter the League of Nations
without any other reservation. They
added. however, that Germany must
remain adamant in refusing France
permission to guarantee the fulfill
ment of Germany's arbitration treaties
with Poland and Czechoslovakia.

Brodcrick, Inc. He stated that in
the opinion Of his office, rental
values on apartments in Seattle this
year would remain firm, so far
there being no indication on tho
part OF any OF our owners TO
change rental schedules"
No reduction In rentals, either on
homes or on commercial locations
is likely. he pointed out
Nationally, from reports from 100
cities for the year ending in July,
rents dropped S,15 per cent in the
case Of small houses and apart
mcnts. That decrease is believed to
be indicative of the tendency to-
wards lower rents generally,
The average level for July was
only 10 per cent higher than the
1914 level, The highest increase
over the pre-wnr figures was In
Los Angeles, where rents are still
