SEEK OPINION
OF WILSON ON
FRENCH COUP

Washington. April 6.-(By the
Associated Press )-The French
government through Ambassador
Jesserand has asked for an ex-
preston of opinion by President
Wilson as to the French occupa-
ton of cities in the neutral zone
beyond the Rhine.
1t was learned today that the
French ambassador presented
statement of the French position
to Secretary Colby yesterday and
asked that it be communicated to
the president. Presumably this
was the communication referred to
in recent press dispatches from
Paris, as having been sent to the
American, British and Italian gov
ernments.
At the state department today it
was said that the United States
had made no statement with re-
gard to the advance Of the French
forces and that it was unlikely that
any would be made, for the present
at least.
Officials said Great Britain and
Italy had taken the same view as
the United States, that there was
no objection to the movement OF
German troops into the Ruhr dis
trict to quell disturbances there.
provided they were withdrawn as
soon as conditions had been re-
stored
