GOVERNMENT ADVISES FRENCH
 II |S FREE

BERLIN, Feb. I-What may be construed into a declaration of hostil- ities was arrived at last evening at a joint meeting of the cabinet and gov ernment officials. which convened to consider the actions of the French oc- cupational army commanders in at tempting to restrict the movements of the German population in the dis tricts taken.
 The outcome of the session was the forwarding of a notification by the German government to the French that Germany declined to receive or ders from any foreign government as to when and where it's people may visit, especially to parts of its own country. This, it is believed, will bring about further strained condi- ton between the two nations.
