PARIS. October 2s-The foreign Of
fee today took cogniZance of reports
circulated in the United States as to
alleged plans of the French govern
ment after the American election and
issued the following official state
ment:
Certain American publications in
the last few days have printed reports
according to which the French gov
ernment's intention was to recall it's
ambassador in the event of and as
soon as a republican President as
sumed office. The new envoy, it was
reported, would have instructions to
meet the republican viewpoint con-
cerning the league of nations and also
try to reach an alliance of some kind
between the United States and France
A new association of nations was al
legged to be the policy Of the new
ambassador. in which the two great
republics. would play predominant
parts.
Such Information is absolutely
groundless; Ambassador Jusserand
leaves on November 13 to resume the
duties of his post at Washington
