the delicate situation cented by
what British statesmen consider
France’s hasty and unjustified ac-
tion in the Rhine advance. The
British position, according to in-
formation today, was that France
should have accepted Germany’s
pledge that she would withdraw
her troops from the Ruhr basin as
soon as order was restored at its
face value and that retaliatory
measures should not have been
taken until Germany’s bad faith
had been proved.
Great Britain still considers the
Ruhr incident as a German inter-
nal affair ’and holds Germany
should be allowed to settle her
own troubles until it has been
proven she cannot do so. France,
the British government feels’
should not ask the allies to as-
sume the responsibility for the
step taken without their sanction,
