Ger many's reply to France's note outlin ing the obner vat ions of the allies with respect to the German security pact proposals, has been thoroughly stud ied by the foreign department experts of the three countries directly con cerned Great Britain, France and Belgium. London now Is awaiting a commun catlon which it is learned that Mr. Brland, the French foreign minister has sent to the French ambassador in London, outlining proposals made by France after a careful examination for the foreign office. Despite all criticisms of the German reply It cannot be doubted that the Impression created, is on the whole favorable. Even in France, where many of the notes have been written in a more or less ironical tone, there is an ndmlHsion that Germany's atti tude is conciliatory and hope for a satisfactory outcome Is entertained. In England most of the comment Is based on gratification that Germany evidently ,1s anxious for a settlement and framed her reply in a manner to encourage hopefulness. The fact that the speech -of. the German foreign minuter. Dr. Gustuv Stresemann. In the relchstag yesterday was received without any pronounced opposition is regarded us reflecting the desire of the Germans to do nothing to hum per the progress of negotiations.
