FRENCH HONOUR BRITISH NAVY:
EULOGISTICAL TRIBUTE. “
Paris, April 24 There was a demonstration in honour of the British Navy at the
Sorbonne, whereat M Pichon and M. Legues, Minister for Marine, presided. Admiral Beatty and others of the chief visiting navalmen were guests of honour and dis- tinguished politicians and diplomats were also present. M Pichon enlogistically "tributed the friendship of King Edward and said the present celebrations of victory were the direct outcome of his late Majesty's labours in cementing the Anglo-French alliance. France was not only honouring the incomparable Navy but also honouring Britain's Army, Gov- ernment and her Dominions and Colonies. They were deter- mined to maintain the present Anglo-French collaboration for all time, because without it peace would remain at the mercy of that fickleness of fortune so often experienced." M Leygues said the successes of the Armies in France and Belgium, also in the East and Africa would have been. impossible but for the protection of the Navy, which pre- vented the destruction of their ports and devastation of their dominions and colonies. Moreover the war would have lasted much longer without the naval blockade. Continning, he outlined the achievements of all branches of the Navy, none of which ever failed to rise to every emergency, and said the atrocious crimes of the enemy submarines must be punished.
Admiral Touchard eulogistically reviewed the achieve- ments of the British sailors in every ocean and concluded: "We have disputed with you the empire of the sea. We shall no longer be your rivals, 'except in the works of peace. Thousands and thousands of your sons sleep their last sleep under the soil of France. All honour and reverent remem- brance to those glorious dead."
