To Wlll Leave Sunday The Fbrelgn Secretary and Capt. Anthony Eden are leaving Sunday for the German capital. The Ger- man reply assured that the con- versations will be carried on with- in the scope of the Anglo-Hench proposals, on the original bails. Officials expressed satisfaction nnd relief that Gerrmny was will- ing in proceed in spite of her uni- lateral step assuming equality by organizing an army. The discussions in Berlin will include general settlement of Eur- opean problems-a mutual air pact, an Eastern Ioqarno treaty, general arms regulation, Germany's return to the League and a pact of pow- ers mutually guaranteeing the in. dependence of Austria. The government agreed tonight to the demand of George T ‘ ury, leader of the Labor opposition, for a debate in the House of Commons on the position arising oistd tbs German situation. It was an- nounced ln the House that the de- , bate would be held Thursday, in ‘place of the debate on tbs India bill which was scheduled for that date. Hope Held The British note protested that Germany's unilateral action had taken in advance whatever advant- ages might have been obtained through future discussion. It was felt, however. that Germany is still willing to enter into some agreement regarding her lfllll- ments, as testified by the nature of her reply today. Sir John Simon interrupted Par- liamentary debate on army estim- ates to announce the receipt of Germany's favorable reply. Cheers greeted his words “The German government," he said. "has told our ambassador it still wished our visit to take place and agreed that the conversation will be held within the scope and for the purpose previously agreed upon." Captain Eden will continue to Moscow after he and sir John talk with Hitler next Monday and Tuesday as originally sched- uled. He will also go to Warsaw for similar conversations. The British note. delivered to the embassy in Berlin said “His Majesty's government feel bound to convey to the Osman govern- ment their protest againbt the an. nouneement made by the latter March l6 of I. decision to adopt conscription and to increase the peace basis of the German srmy to 38 divisions.

IDNDON‘, March Ill-The board of ‘Admiralty after reviewing the evidence tonight recorded drastic changes in the v handed out by the naval courts-martial held at Portsmouth following the collision between (he big battle-cruisers Hood and Renown. The higher body failed to agree no blame attached to either Rear- Admiral Sidney Bailey, command- er of the battle cruiser squadron, or Capt. F. T. B. Tower, command- er of the Hood; while they reduced the sentence on the remaining ac- cused officer, Capt. H. R. Saw- bridge of the Renown. Will Resume Command Capt. Bawbridge bad been con- victed of negligence and sentenced to dismissal from his command and retirement on half pay. The Admiralty Board orders the sent- ence reduced to a severe reprimand, which will permit him to resume his command on the Renown. The commander of the battle cruisers squadron and the Hood's captain, who was Bear-Admiral Bailey's flag captain, were both somewhat to blame for the col- lision which occurred off the Spanish coast in January, said the Board of Admiralty. - The board found that Rear-Ad- miral Bailey adopted an unusual procedure in directing the Hood and Renown to steer definite courses in closing in on each other during manoeuvres. Since he had given ‘that "orddrfwlllm “ about the collision, responsibility for the manoeuvre rested on him, and it was incumbent on him at the proper moment to make a sig- nal to re-form the squadron. Signal m. new His omission to do so left his final intentions in doubt, said the board, and the signal for the Hood and Renown to form in single line ahead was made too late to avoid the collision. _ As regards Capt. Tower, Their Lordships said they consider he should have taken avoiding action earlier and to that extent were unable to acquit him of sli blame. Island Likeihe Dew Ci-IARLOTTETOWN.

The British. note, presented by Ambassador Sir Eric Phipps, said Hitler's announcement Saturday was "calculated seriously to in- crease the uneasiness of Europe." Immediately after replying to the note Germany, through its propaganda ministry, said it “al- ready possessed, a powerful, well- equipped army with excellent ar- tillery and huge reserves of train- ed men." Working on War Footing “German arms g factories," said Propaganda Minister Paul Joseph Goebbels, “are working virtually on a war footing, material is being supplied from them in an ever increasing volume."

"One would have believed," he said, “that the news would have been received with visible relief and satisfaction. new that i-he world knows where we stand.
