GERMANY'S REPLY
TO ALLIED NOTE
GENERALLY LIKED
LONDON, July 2S.U. P.) 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.
