FOREBODINGS IN LONDON.
FRANCE IN DIFFICULTIES. Australian and N.Z. Cable Association, (Reed. 8.26 p.m.) LONDON. Jan. 16.
The London Press practically unanimously adopts an attitude toward France of " I told you so."
The Daily Chronicle states that the passive resistance of tho German Government will lead the invaders from point to point. Where will they stop '! Perhaps some Frenchmen rejoice at the possibility that their troops will yet* enter Berlin. For France's sake we hope that she will find soma way of stopping short. The worst mischief of her policy is the difficulty when once in of getting out of its toils."
The Daily Telegraph, assorts that the course events have taken confirm-: wi, v h melancholy fidelity ti's anticipation ci trouble formed in Britain when Fran-a decided for occupation of the Ruhr region.
Th? Westminster Gazette states: — " France has placed herself in a position in which what she does or refrains from doing is dictated by the German Government and people. We believe that France will find that she has undertaken a task impossible of accomplishment. By that time reparations will probably have disappeared as a possible policy in this generation."
