Fourth Na1 Denunciation Of Treaty
Clauses May Bring Strong Protest

France lost no time in taking
the only possible punitive action
against Germany. The Quai Dor
say, on learning Of Hitler's deci-
rion, promptly denounced the
Franco German "modus vivendp
or temporary arrangement re-
garding the Rhineland.
High French circles attribute
Hitler's act to two reasons:
1. A desire of Der Fuehrer's
to give the Germans salve for
their national pride as a pallia-
tive to economic deprivations
suffered as a result Of the tood
3. To furnish himself with .
powerful weapon In future nego-
tiations with Gee :hoslovakis. The
Czechs are wholly dependent upon
Hamburg, Bremen and Stettin as
ports of entry. Official trade fig
ures show that 80 per cent Of
Czech imports pass through these
three ports.
Under the German Czech treaty
of February, 1922, signed at
Dresden, Germany pledged itself
never to use the free ports 40 .
