ed by Foch Clique As
serts Chancellor Muel-
Ter of New Occupation.
Germany Must Prepare
for Death Struggle
With Gallo Militarism.
He Declares.

Berlin, April 16.-(By The Associated
Rress.)-Chancellor Mueller declares
that NJ. Millerand, French premier, at
first informally consented to Germany s
present military action in the Ruhr dis
trict. on the assumption that the opera
tions would consume only two or three
weeks, and alleged that. influenced by
the French generals. Millerand decided
ito make political capital out of Ger
many's internal conditions.
The chancellor also asserted that the
French procedure was bound to give aid
and comfort to the German Spartacans.
wherever they are given the opportunity.
Peace Again Shaken.
The occupation of Frankfort, Darn
by the French said the chancellor, ''is
a fresh attempt of Gallo militarism on
the peace of the world-peace only just
restored after an era of misery. It will
meet with the strongest condemnation
by right.thinking men and women every
where.
'.rhe French assertions that the Ger
neutral zone against the lawless bands
Of the Ruhr constitute a violation of
the peace treaty are but a flimsy pre-
text for wantOn aggression"
Aim to Rend German Empire.
The chancellor then made the charge
that France had altered her decision
obviously under the influence of the
French generals" and continued:
'"The intentions of France, where mil
itarism and imperialism seem again to
be in the ascendancy, are only too clear.
BY invading cities like Frankfort, Hanau
and Darmstadt, which are the principal
gateways between north and south Ger
many, France hopes to throttle the Ger
man empire and cause our political dis
integration."
Herr Mueller asserted that the
French sction certainly would swell the
number of those who declare that since
France is more than ever bent upon
achieving Germany's complete annihila-
tion, Germany will be compelled to pre-
pare for death struggle"
IF the allied governments, if the de-
cent opinion of mankind should placid
~ tolerate this act of French aggres-
sion," concluded the chancellor. then
the occupation Of Frankfort will mark
the beginning of an era of international
anarchy the like of which the world has
never before Witnessed

early Tuesday, by the arrest of four
