GERMANY.
ATTITUDE OF THE NATIONS. RECOGNITION WANTED. By Talegraph.—Press Asm—Copyright. Reecived August 5, 7.50 p.m. * Berlin, August 4. Herr von Simon (Foreign Minister) in an. interview with the Berliner Tageblatt, said ho believed the Russians were certainly striving for a restoration of normal relations with Western Europe, and, in the long run, the Eastern question could not be settled without Germany's co-operation. It would be deplorable, he said, if Germany could not participate in the London conference, for she had more experience than any other country. He opposed pushing in where they were not wanted, but Germany could still place her knowledge at the conference's disposal. He was not prepared to make a treaty with the Soviet unless Russia was ready to carry out her obligations to the Entente. , Referring to Mr. Winston Churchill's statement that the.iime had not arrived for Germany to demand admission to the League of Nations, Herr von Simons stated that Germans could not permit themselves to be used as mercenaries in connection with other peoples' military plans.—Aus. and N.Z. Cable Assn.
