ARMISTICE INCIDENT.
CLEMENCEAU’S CURT NOTE. By Tele£raph.-'Press Assn.—Copyright. Paris, Feb. 27. The Revue Universelie states that during October 1918, M. Paincr.re dethat the armistice agreement would not give what France had the right to exact. He interviewed M. Clemenceau and said he feared the Germans sought a truce only to gain time to regroup their armies, hoping that the French troops, when ordered to march again, would refuse. M. Clemenceau replied that if America recommended an armistice France would be unable to refuse, because Britain would not support the refusal. M. P<4pcare was not convinced and again wrote to M. Clemenceau, who sent a curt note expressing astonishment that three years’ power had not taught the President that responsible Ministers should be left free to carry on their task, and threatening to resign if further interfered with.—Aus. and N.Z. Cable Assn.
