"Information recently received in London from independent observers in neutral countries who are closely in touch with the currents of Ger- man opinion point to the conclusion that the German military party is deliberately preparing for armed no- tion against the Allies. Noske is de- scribed "as acting consciously as a warming pan for the monarchical and militarist restoration. Some of his recent actions are held to sub- stantiate this view. The majority of German officers belong to a 'Hohen- zollern' association which. aims avowedly, at the restora ,of the ex-Kaiser, A minority of officers belong to a 'republican' lon. Noske has recently taken action against the organs of this adsocia- tion, but has left those of the Ho- henzollern association untouched. "In well:informed quarters it fs stated that the army formed by Von der Goliz in the Baltice provinces is merely the nucleus of a much larger force which has been secretly or- ganized in the interior of Germany in readiness for whatéver action the military party may decide upon.
