Berlin, Feb. 6.
The extension of the Balkan Pact for an additional seven years, as well ps the expression of the desire to increase economic ties, not only among the individuals of the Balkan Entente mations, but also between the Entente and their neighbours, were interpreted here yesterday as the salient results of the Balkan conference, These points were received in Berlin with considerable satisfaction.
Extension of the pact was taken as the best demonstration of the Balkans' common determination to preserve their' own interests and protect themselves from "machinations" of the Anglo-French war bloc.
*Tt was pointed out here that the German trade plan is predicated on the existence of healthy economic conditions in south-east Europe. The importance of the Balkan markets and their raw material reserves has been increased by the war.
In the first published press comment, one newspaper said the conference "shows the solidarity against criminal recklessness and machinations of the London war arsonists who sought cannon powder for England and who, before and during the eonference, plotted and fought against the Balkan peace policy in the most vicious fashion.—United Press.
