Armed Europe Prepares For Another Gesture For Peace Disarmament Parleyy, Starting Next Week, Lack Advance Optimism By MILTON BRONNER NEA Service Writer LONDON — A Europe armed to the teeth again prepares to make a gesture toward world peace. But éven the forced optimism which usually is evident in the weeks before a disarmament meet ing is lacking on the eve of the next¢ Genevar conference, which is schedufed to start on October 16. For the advent of Adolph Hit ler to power in Germany has up set the disarmament apple-cart. ‘Hitler himself has made two dis t:netly pacific speeches, one at Berlin and one at Nurembeig, but the speeches of his lieutenants have not been SO reassuring. They have struck to ‘the thesis that wherever in Europe there are Ger mans in contiguous territory, they must come within the German fold. This means North Schleswig which: was returned to Denmark by the peace treaties; Eupen and Malmedy which were Eiven to Bel gium; the Saar, which is at pres ent under the League of Nations; the Polish Corridor and part of Silesia, which were given to Po -land; the city of Danzig, also un< der the League of Nations. Going farther afield, some of the Nazis have spoken of getting Alsace back and of a demand for the re turn of the former colonies in Africa. ‘ Not. only that. The German in s.stence upon treaty revisions has had its echoes in Hungary and Bulgaria, Hungary was shorn of territory which was handed over to Czecho slovakia, Yugoslavia and Rouma nia. Bulgario had to hand over glices of land to Jugoslavia, Rou mania and Greece. All over the map of Europe there are stacks of tinder which only need a spark to sey them off. Everywhere in Europe, outside of England, Holland, Spain, Switz erland and the Secandinavian coun tries, there are renewed signs of militarism. Every German city is full to bursting with Nazi troops. Since Hitler came to power these men. have been arm® and whip ped into shape in such a way that they already constitute ~a real army needing only machine guns® heavy artillery, tanks and ai’- planes to be an effective fighting force. : . 3 France is armed to the teeth.
