Paris editors opposed even the small measure of publicity the British and American correspondents were able to wring from tho last Jan uary At the same time they haveindulged in subtly bitter attacks against President Wilson apparently forgetting the tact that these on slaughts appearing in columns passed by the rench censor were given an official sanction altogether absent from matter published

Varis May 5 Exponeftts of the militaristic idea in rance are urging the Clemenceau government to stand by the Italians in the demands they make on their return to the peace conference even to the extreme of developing a separate defensive alli anc between the two powers Tiie project of a rcnci ltalian union it is believed has the support of Marshal och It is certainly backed by the new born rench tary party which is strenuously en gaged in promoting a peace guaran teed by equilibristic arrangements and by armed force father than by the moral suasion of Wilsonism Adherents of this movement are Marshal warmest: sup porters argue that with Great Brit ain and America disinclined to help to guard the rench frontiers with their arms' Italy is the only nation to which rance can turn for sistance in men and guns Back Up lume Claims Therefore they say it is up to the rench peSce delegates not only to insist that Premier Orlando get innic or a compromise wholly" satisfactory rto

interfere agreement among rance I tiily Great Britain and the United States It would be in no sunse directed against the Jugoslavs and should in fact be welcomed by them as a protective agency against

the menacing alliance of Berlin and Vienna animate and definite en tente between Paris and Rome which alone wobld permit us to oppose Sll O00O00 of Latins to those of Germans who are preparing unite against Danger to Italy and rance The Matin observes that left of the common peace Italy will obliged to make a peace of her own in which she would risk a species of serfdom dangerous to rance hypothesis of an Italy returning uie day or another to a Germanic alli ance would force us to redraft the whole peace the article goes on guarantees given us to day would be insufficient Not only would our frontiers be lengthened the num ber of troops required and our diffi culties in northern Africa where tlie Italian population is so numerous 1 greatly augmented but America and England having recalled their soldiers rance would find herself alone in Eu By that same token the Matin con siders that as tlie Slav countries in southern Europe cannot be relied upon a prostrate Russia would be at the mercy of the Austro Germans (Copyright 1919 by the Tress Pub lishing Company) the and Springfield navigation interests said that the plan to cut off a slioal Avhici projects about two
