In a speech in the Chamber, M. Millerand said as the Treaty constituted France's sole protection it is her imparative duty not to tolerate any weakening of it. The French Government proposes to Holiday), TEA say to the German Government, "France is not a land of hatred From 4 to 7 pm. and vengeance, She demands only justice, but justice she DANCE From 8 pm. demands imperatively. You say that in order to keep your engagements you must. be able to live and work. The French -Clovernment does not exclude the possibility of economic collabor
ation, but it is to the German Government to give proof of its good faith by fulfilling its obligations." France, he said, is magnanimous, but she does not intend to be a dupe whan Paris is threatened and London is no longer safe. The interest of the Allies is to show a united front, and none of the Allies doubts this truth.

Barthou denounced these contradictions with bitter- ness of language and a passion which one would not have expected 3 o'clock p.m. at bis Sales Rooms from a statesman. The Temps, in a leading article, entreats the at No. 6 Dodlell Street, Victoria British public not to imagine that the French Chamber is in any way hostile to England. Occasional divergences of opinion, it says, may cause irritation, which, however, is quickly dispelled by speeches like the one made in the House of Commons by Mr. Lloyd George.
FRANCE IN THE NEAR EAST.
Paris, March 23. Speakers in the Chamber, discussing Turkey, declared that the Allies vie'ory had shattered pan-German dreams in the East, France should not abandon her position in Syria and Cilicis, because she had a right to be there.

NAVAL FIGURES.
SOME BRITISH AND AMERICAN FIGURES.
London, March 31.
In the House of Commons, at question-time. Mr. Long made a statement as regards the report of an American Navy to equal the Eritish by 1924. He said the statement that the United States Navy Estimates exceed Britain's by one million sterling did not re- present a fair comparision, for at the current rate of exchange the United States Estimates were approximately. £23,000,000 more than Britain's. Moreover, if the £23,000,000 terminal war expenses in the British Estimates were subtracted, the United States' Estimates b would be £44,000,000 in excess of the British. As regards personnel figures, Britain's were 136,000, failing to 131,000 by the end of the year, including all ranks and ratings of officers, men and marines whereas the United States figure of 120,000 was the total of enlisted men only, excluding officers and marines; therefore the comparative total was 147,000. Furthermore, the British personnel was being reduced, while the United States' Estimates provide for the personnel increasing. When the British numbers bad fallen to 131,000 the United States would have risen to 177,099.
