attitude toward any adjustment of the
new situation created by entry OF
French troops into the Ruhr district
of Germany. will continue to be more
that of an observer, than an interested
participant from what can be learned
in official circles. 1t is known the state
department was n communication with
London and Italy as well as France
up TO the time the French army moved
forward from the Mayence bridge
head.
An interesting development foreseen
Is the measures that may be taken
to prevent the recurrence of similar
Independent action on the part of any
allied power. Since the United States
has no representative on the Rhine
commission Is not a member of the
league of nations and the commander
or the little American army at Coblenz
will not ate without direct orders from
Washington any step taken by Great
Britain or her allies to effect a more
definite understanding with France
must be without direct participation of
the United States 1t was indicated. 1t
was assumed however that Ambassa-
dor Wallace would ontijue the part
OF an observer with limited advisory
powers.
1t Is recalled that Articles AZ. AZ
and A of the Versailles treaty de-
fined action by Germany which
might be regarded as calculated to
disturb the peace of the world and 1t
is pointed out that such action by
Germany was accomplished when
the Reichwehr penetrated the Ruhr
district.
In provision for such violation
of the treaty Great Britain and the
United States through their repre-
sentatives in Paris, it Is noted, agreed
In separate treaties to support
France against the German menace,
but those treaties are thus far dead
letter.
France, it Is declared, Is thus left
alone facing Germany which is at
lacking one after another the clauses
of the treaty. The opinion Is ex-
pressed that while maintenance of
the entente is the first point on which
future conversations must be based
there appears to be O need of read
justment Of the relations of the en-
tente powers.
The original understanding having
been to ward off the menace of ag-
gression by Germany 1t was contin-
ued during the war with a view of
winning the war. but was never ad-
justed to after-war conditions, which.
1t is asserted, require a more COM
prehensive accord.
