FRENCH PROTEST
AGAINST THAILAND ACTION TROOPS ADVANCE BEYOND NEW BORDER. RAILROAD EVACUATED. (By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright) (Received This Day. 9.40 a.m.) SAIGON, March 19. French authorities protested to Japanese military officials today that Thailand had violated the recent peace agreement by advancing troops beyond the new West Cambodia border line. The Thai advance, the French officials complained, has blocked French IndoChina supply routes and troops, isolating them. Although incidents have been reported in the areas of Cambodia and Laos, ceded to Thailand under the peace treaty, there has been no order for the French to move out or for Thailand forces to move in; The French are evacuating the railroad to the old Thai border, where it will be joined with the line running to Bangkok.
