PARIS, April 0. French Boldlors
today occupy tho German cities of
Frankfort on Main and Darmstadt,
16 miles south. Forces commanded
by Genoral Do Coutto, which have
been holding the Muyence bridgehead
were ordered forward by Marshal
Foch following tho efforts on tho part
of the French government yesterday
to Induce tho llorlin governinont to
withdraw its forces from the noutral
.one along tho eastern bank of the
Hhlno, whore they had been ordered
to disperse communistic units that
for tho past fortnight have conducted
a revolt in the Kuhr valloy.
Stirring scenos at Alayenco yester
day aro described by Henry llidou,
military critic l.'f tho Journal des De
buts, in a telegram to his paper. He
says that during the afternoon troops
activity begun and soon automobile
trucks and field kitchens begun mov
ing eastward, accompanied by Moroc
can troops with machine guns.
(icrniaiiH Must I'ay
Chief Intorost In the situation as
ovidoucod by nowspapors hore Is
whether the ullles will support
Franco nnd to what extent. This
uucry was put to Premier Millorund
by the Echo do Paris lust night, the
premier anBWorlng:
"Knglund was victorious and so
was France. I am confident every
thing will work out perfectly."
Asked who would pay tho expense
incident to occupation M. Millorund
replied:
"Why, Germany, obviously, since
it was sho that by her acts obliged us
to resort to coercion."
Occupation ot Frankfort, Darm
stadt and other German cities in tho
neutral zone Is generally Indorsed by
Journals of all shades of political
opinion. It Is recognized tho opera
tion will ho risky and burdonsomo
but unavoidable in viow of tho ten
dencies of tho Her I In govornmcnt.
Critics of tho promler, howovor, do
ploro Hint fact thut tho allies aro not
participants in the movement.
Cim tVmvlnco Wilson
"France will onfe'reo respect of tho
Versailles troaty hut tho allies will
not help to do It," is a caption ap
pearing In today's cdHion of tho
Oeuvro, tho Inference drawn being
that tho purely platonlc nature of tho
allied support is due to failure on the
part of M. Milleraud and his aides to
meet tho exigencies of tho situation.
"Pertinnx," political odltor of Kcho
do Paris, says more cCncreto support
will be forthcoming as a result ot the
premier's statement issued last night.
He says If. Millorund "feels capablo
of convincing President Wilson, him
self, If ho Is still guidod by rules of
logic."
"Mr. Wilson's memorandum of
March 29," tho writer continues,
"said dispatch of moro Herman
troops Into tho Ruhr region must, In
his opinion, ho Justified by tho ccurso
of ovents. Wo do not expect passive
acceptance of an accomplished fact

.Militarism Warned
Premier Mlllernnd's note on the
subject of occupying German cities
east ot the Ithine declared the Berlin
government "had given way to pres
sure by the militarists," and that the
sending of military groups Into1 the
neutral zone was not justified by the
situation.. It was pointed out that
the movement of French forces would
be of a "coercive and precautionary
nature," and could not bo deferred
and the premier declared1 If Germany
bad carried out the disarmament
clauses of the Versailles treaty neith
er the Kupp revolt nor the Ruhr revo
lution would have occurred.
PARIS, April 6. Marshal Foch
had a conference this morning with
Promior .Millorund. Later tho pre
mier received Hugh C. Wallace, the
American ambassador.
(HOME, April 6. Populo Romano
says today that at a cabinet meeting
Monday the government decided to
extend to France, Italy's moral sup-
pdrt In the (French occupation of
Frankfort and other German cities.
Tho cabinet agreed, however, that
under no circumstances would Italy
bo a party to any military measures
against Germany, the newspaper
states.
Occupation Was Forced
PARIS, April 0. Premier Miller-
nnd today formally notified Dr. Von
Mayer, the Gorman charge d'affaires,
of the action of the French govern
ment in ordering the advance and In
formed him that -as soon as there had
been complete evacuation of the neu
tral zone by tho German troops tho
French would evacuate tho cities they
had been ordered to occupy. Tho pre
mier's note read:
"I)y my letter of April 2, I asked
you to make insistent representations
to your government to obtain the 1m
mediuto withdrawal of the Gorman
troops which unduly penetrated tiie
noutrul zone fixed by article 'i'i of tho
treaty of Versailles.
"My request having obtained no re
sult up to this time I have the honor
of informing you that the general
commanding in chief of the army on
tho Uhlne has received orders to oc
cupy Immediately tho cities of Frank
fort, Homburg, Hanau, Darmstadt
and Dloburg. This occupation will
end as soon as the German troops
shall have completely evacuated the
neutral zone."
Xo Violence Jlcportcd
IFRAINKFORT, April 6. (By As
sociated Press.) Frunkfort was occu
pied without incident by French
troops early today and with tho cav
alry in the lead, followed by tho In
fantry nnd tho artillery, the occupy
ing forces prossod rapidly beyond tho
city. They met with no opposition.
lly ten o'clock in tho morning the cav
alry bud reached Bckenbelm (three
miles north of Frunkfort). Tho entire
operation was expected to ho com
pleted during tho day. .
Tho occupation takes tho form of
an extension of the Fronch lines
around the "bridgehead of Mayonco,
a distaitco rf about 18 miles. Tho ox-
trcmo limits of tho advance form a
somi-clrcle similar to but larger than
that ot tho original zone of occupation.
Tho only German troops encoun-
tored In Frankfort by tho Fronch
were Slchorholtswohr, or volunteers,
who surrendered. They probably will
be simply disarmed and released.
