Avowed for France
Echo de Paris Intimates u.
and Britain Acceded to
Plan as Alternative to Fu-

specicl Gable to The Tribune

Copyright, 1920. New York Tribune Inc
PARIS, Dec. 26.-The Echo de Paris
today asks whether President Wilson
ana Lloyd George gave former Premier
o'enenceau any assurance that France
could retain her grip on the left bank
OF the Rhine. The newspaper suggests
that france was to have this privilege
IN case the United States and Great
Britain refused to ratify the treaties
guaranteeing the Integrity of France
against future German aggression.
According to the Treaty OF Versailles,
the newspaper says, France was to pro-
long her occupation of the Rhine VAL
ley II she did not obtain sufficient guar
antics against unprovoked attacks.
Some Frenchmen now argue. and the
suggestions of the Echo &c Paris pur-
sue the same thought, that the failure
of America and England to sign the
treaties of guarantee automatically
gives France the right to remain on the
Rhine.
Andre Tardieu recently expressed
this opinion in the Chamber of Depu-
ties. The Echo. however, thinks that
Iardleu's remarks might give rise to a
dangerous illusion, because it believes
Tardieu might know Of assurances from
President Wilson and Lloyd George,
anu tHcIe1OIc seeks immediate IN
formation on this subject
Tardieu's speech IN the Chamber in
cluded the declarat on that Premier
Leygues was correct in reminding the
Deputies that France had a right to
prolong the occupation of the RhirJ
territories if the guarantees against
future German aggression were not
sufficient. He continued
"The Franc o-American treaty of
guarantee has not come into force, and
this fact has prevented The ratification
of the Anglo-French pact Conse-
quently, in view of the last paragraph
Of Article CCCCXXIX Of the treaty, we
have no reason to limit our occupation y
The Echo argues its belief that Tar
dieu would not attempt to upheld such
q contention if he did not know that
