SILESIA TROOP
REFUSAL SHOCK
French Unprepared for British Ab-
rupt Decision-George Too
Hasty is View. .

Paris. July 21.-French official
circles received a shock from the
British governments reply to the
French suggestion that Allied re-
/ Endorsements be sent to upper Sill
esia, and in some quarters toda".
Anglo-French relations are descriB-
ed as critical as a result.
The French government is said
to have been unprepared for "the
severity and unyielding tone" that
this mornings newspapers indicate
characterizes the British commun-
ications
Editorial comment suggested that
the British prime minister. David
Lloyd George, acted entirely 100
hastily in refusing to agree with the
French view that additional Allied
troops were necessary in upper Sill
esia. The commentors also declare
that he failed to inform himself
fully regarding the necessity OF
prompt Allied action, and added
that had he waited a few hours
longer he would have had been re-
cipient of unanimous report from
the Allied high commissioners at
Oppeln, in which it Is urged that
immediate reinforcements be sent.
While most newspapers agree that
the incident brings AngIo-French
relations to another delicate point,
LIE Journal says the problem is not
lnsoluble and in its final analysis,
not of nature to seriously trouble
the comfy of Allied relations.
