or AMERICANS
IN RHINE ARMY
Conference of Officials May
Arrange for Leaving
Moral Force.

PARIS, March 2S.-Maj. Gen. Henry T.
Allen, commander In chief of the Amer
lean Army Of Occupation on the Rhine.
who has come here from Coblenz. Ameri-
can headquarters, conferred today with
Ambassador Myron 7. Herrick and Ro-
land Boyden upon the withdrawal of the
American forces.
It is possible a small detachment of
American troops win be left behind for
moral effect. despite the fact the Amer
leans are under orders TO withdraw
completely.
All Of the Americans were to have been
out Of the Rhine land by the end Of this
week. The French already have made
arrangements to take over the territory
evacuated by the doughboys.
The orders TO the Americans to retire
has heightened the political tension over
the demands of the United States for
priority right to the payment OF $241 ,O00,
900 German indemnity, for the upkeep OF
the American Army Of Occupation.
Great Britain already has allowed it to
become known unofficially that she ap-
proves the business of Americas claims,
but Premier Poincare Of France has not
given any opinion, either of approval or
disapprOval. The conference of General
Allen, Ambassador Herrick and Mr..
BOyden is now awaiting word of some
kind from the French premier. Mr.. Boy
den is Americas representative on the
Reparations Commission.
