PRECIPITANT HITLER.
" It is hard to believe," points out the Yorkshire Post, " that Herr Hitler cares greatly what effect his actions have on foreign opinion or on international confidence. Each o£ these unilateral repudiations increases the doubts which must everywhere be felt as to the value of any Treaty which carries Germany's signature. On the Nazi theory and practiee, it would seem, any Treaty can, and eyen must, be scrapped without notiee or previous consultation as spon as it appears that any national advantage is to be gained by such q course, In such conditions what prospect can there he for the Western Paot which Britisli diplomacy has been working hard to secure in replacement of the violated Locarno Treaties? It must be doubtful, even, whether Germany really has any desire to bring about sueh a Treaty, since otherwise she would be at some pains to inspire confidence, instead of appearing deliberalely to provoke iiftrust."
