 Peace Program Hope
 The meeting of the league council Saturday will be held at St. James'i palace. From the meetings. 1t is hoped here, there may emerge from Hitler's reoccupation of the Rhine land and Frances anger and alarm Q program of pacification that VII result in reassurances of their safety to France and Belgium; in Ger many's return to the League Of Na- lions: and in Italy's emergence from the gold-draining adventure 1n East Africa.
 Series of Demands
 Authoritative advices from Paris indicated that the first job of the government was to meet g series of French demands which called for Harsh penalties against Germany unless a solution of the present crisis is effected. But these de- rnands were qualified with other de- mands of greatest importance 70 Great Britain:
 1-That Britain give France 8 new guarantee of armed assistance in event of German invasion.
 2-That the French and British general staffs prepare specific joint plan to deal with any emer- gency.

 2t has become evident that no country at the moment wants war, no matter it's degree of anger.
 There were more and -nore refer ences to the situation in the spring and early summer of 1914, and 1t was pointed out that had there been such series of conferences in London then as there will be here in the next few days, there might have been no war.
 British Satisfied
 British leaders all welcomed the prompt acceptance by other Locarno signatories of a switch in the the- atre of negotiations from Paris and Geneva to London. Paris IS the center of anger against Germany; Geneva is tinged with the atmos- phere of "sanctions" 50 distasteful to all defeated nations in the World War.
