The aggressive tone of Herr Hitler's address in Saarbrueck yesterday greatly contributed to arouse the feeling of German danger among Conservatives and to develop the movement in favour of compulsory military service.
Thus, when he comes back from his holiday, Mr. Neville Chamberlain will either have to pursue the policy of peace at all costs with Germany, which would speedily bring about the resignations of Sir Robert Vansittart, Chief Diplomatic Adviser to His Majesty's Government, and of Sir Alexander Cadogan, Permanent Under-Secretary at the Foreign Office, or to admit that the improvement in the European atmosphere following the Munich Agreement has already been dispelled and that a German danger really exists.
