PARIS. January 13.-The reduction
of the American forces on the Rhine
from 150 600 to 5000 has caused con-
siderable comment in French offlci al
circles. although this action on the
part of the United States was not un-
expected The decision Of the War De-
partment is regarded as logical de-
velopment of what French officials re-
gard as the American plan to decrease
It's participation in European affairs
to its. very minimum.
The withdrawal of American troops
from Germany would be looked upon
bv the French as very unfortunate. 1t
is pointed out that the presence OF
American troops on the Rhine has and
IS continuing to have good moral!
effect upon the Germans. What the
government wants. it is said. is the
