Secretary signs of displeasure —— ORMAL negotiations looking to- ‘ward compléte evacuation of the Rhineland and final settlement of rep- arations were opened In Geneva by the representatives of Germany, Great Britain, France, Italy and Japan. The first discussions of Germany's plea were promising, although an earlier speech by Premier Briand, attacking Chancellor Mueller's statements of German fulfillment of her pledges, had created some doubt of ultimate agreement. London dispatches sald Great Britain and France were in accord on these points: First, perfect eo-operation among the allies. Second, implicit recognition of the fact that the occupation must con- tinue unless the Germans give other guarantees for the payment of the reparations. Third, a political guarantee by Ger- many that the plan for the union with Austria will not be pursued. Fourth, the consent of Germany to the control of the demilitarized zone of the Rhineland for 25 years. Fifth, the Germans to take the Initi- ative by presenting concrete proposals.
