THURSDAY
GERMAN GOVT pENoUNCES FRENCH OCCUPATION OF
 NEUTRAL ZONES

Berlin. April S-A proclamation in protest of the French occupation of Frankfort and other towns in the neu- tral zone along the east bank of the Rhine valley has been issued by the German government to the inhabitants of the occupied towns. The proc French is unwarranted and Il deliber- ate viola tion of the spirit of the Ner- sailles treaty. It declares the French charge that large forces of regular troops Were sent into the Ruhr basin is unfounded. as less than 14,000 troops in all have been collected in the Ruhr basin during the workmen's revolt. This. the proclamation as- serts. is almost exactly the number permitted by the agreement with the Entente. The proclamation contin- ues: "Fra'ice has regarded it as re- concilable with state of peace to oc- cupy flourishing towns as reprisal. The worlds peace has never been more monstrously played with than it has been just now by France. It Is that hard hearted opponent which alone is responsible for making two victims in this Shylock policy. The German government will do everything fering and it will not let Germany be shattered in this cunningly devised fashion.
