 Under present plans the Ameri- can volunteers will be stationed be- fore the Alan Seeger monument in the Place De Etats Cnis where they will receive q wreath from the French veterans association as it marches past.
 Ambassador Horrick said today that the posters announcing the pa rade were a direct slap at the United States and at himself. Consequently he feels that if Americans take any part in the parade. il will ombarrass nim officially. He felt that it was un- thinkabie that the American Nolun- teers would bear a share in the demonstration.
 Members Of the American volun- toars, on the other hand, assert that their acceptance Of the wreath at the Alan Secger monument is the only way 10 take the anti-American sting out Of the demonstration, They said that this action would make fl appear that the French vet erans were paying tribute 10 the American soldiers. The members as serted that the parade had been planned a long time ago and that they were inclined 10 believe that the government could not prevent it.
