MONUMENT TO M. CLEMENCEAU.

The "Tiger's"Plea for France.

(Reuter's Service. }

Paris, October 2. At the inauguration of the monument in his honour at Sainte Hermione, in La Vonder, M. Clemenceau made an eloquent speech on France victorious. Referring to the Treaty of Versailles be said that the scheme for assari g the peace of the world, even to the confines of the Far East, was 'ma niscent, but the Pacific was far away while the German frontier was close at hand. The Washing ton Conf-T-Ecs would have an opportunity of remedying obvious faults in the execution. Nobody would refuse to consider the French question as on the same footing as the Pacific question. No ally would want, for the sake of greater trade intercourse, to favour the economic resurrection of Germany at the expense of France.

Economie Situation of France and Germany.

Paris, October 2. Speaking at Saint Hermione, in the province of Vendee, at the inarurat on of a monument which his compatriots have erected. M. He stated Clem-ne-au exalted the gallantry of the French poilu

that the French victory was at the same time that of all the Allies- the victory of idealism and for the liberation of all oppressed nations. Victory would be useless if the pre-war policy of competitions were to revive between the Allies. It was indispensable that every ally avoids the afterthought that Germany should be held as a mark of interested amparby. France has no Imperialist dream, but a will to equitable peace for all nations.

The most striking speech of the disarmament debate was M. Noblemaires, who as colonel in the war, told a story of a young soldier in bis regiment whose dying words to him were, France?" He said that many German heroes similarly cried "Five Germany!" Why should not we hope that (the aspirations of all these beroes, may be realised? Why could not Germany and France M.

M.
