While the Fronch pewspapers continue to refer optimistically to the relaxation of thesteazion on the Ruhr and to spanic of the Germans freely co-operating with the French and also to prophesy that tradie will be restorial to normal within a few days, Gorman jourbale intimate that anti-French feeling is hardening throughout the country, quoting me on instance the refusal of the Hend Quar- ters of the Reichswehr at Munich, to talk to the French and Belgian mumbers of the Control Commission, who were seeking to carry out an inspection.
