MAILED FIST AGAIN
GERMAN’S BLATANT TALK OF WAR COMING FRANCE ENDANGERED PARIS, Monday. The publication of a book by General Von Seeckt, Chief of Staff of the German Army, in which he outlines plans for the next war against France, has resulted in anxious discussions which reveal the fact that the fear of a German attack is still potent in France, notwithstanding the virtual disarming of Germany. There is every necessity for economy in connection with public finances but M. Magiuot, Minister of War, admits that it is impossible to cut down military expenses, as it is essential to maintain the strength of the professional army. The Minister says: “Indeed our covering force is no longer sufficient, as it is difficult to see, in the event of a sudden attack, how we could prevent an enemy from invading our territory while our reserves are being mobilised.” M. Maginot proposes to hasten the completion of the frontier defences so as to be able to hold up invading forces.
