Declaring that the French do not take Germans in pood faith, Fellman stated. "I think the real test of Hitler's good faith was the proposal he did not make." He pointed out the fact that Hitler said nothing about the ewstern frontier but left the door open there. "Will the reoccupation of the ninneland lead to war?" In reply the speaker declared that he be lieves war within a year or two is not probable unless two incidents materialize. He declared that Ger many is not ready for war. in tne opinion of most 'military experts. He also added that since the two antagonists are within "sneering distance" of each other, the reoc cupation was rot a surprise, de spite French statements. The fact that the French intend to act thru the League of Nations, with the possibility of delay, also works against the immediate pos sibility of war, Dr. Fellman stated. Pre-War Statu.
