ROUNDLY CONDEMNED BY FRENCH

Paris, December. 2.

Many French deputies, representing all partios except out-and-out Goullists and the Commu- nists, tonight called on the Government to roject the Anglo-American decision of Novem- bar 10 leaving to a future German Government the question of deciding the final ownership of the Ruhr coal and stool industrios.

In a resolution which, it was expected, would be adopted by a large majority late tonight at the end of a two-day debate on the Ruhr, they asked the Government to tell Britain and the United States that the French people unanimously reject this policy.
