AMERICA AND PEACE.
A MISSION FROM FRANCE. By Telegraph.—Press Assn. —Copyright. Washington, March 31. M. Viviani, the French representative, had a lengthy conference with Mr. C. E. Hughes, Secretary of State, and was received formally by President Harding, who will tender him a dinner on April 5. It is believed that France does not want the United States to make a separate peace with Germany, fearing it will encourage the Germans to refuse to pay the reparations and result in the withdrawal’of the American troops from the Rhine. It is believed that France will do anything that will permit the United States to modify the League Covenant in any way the United States desires, but hopes the new association will be built within the framework of the present League. It is understood that M. Viviani feels the withdrawal of American support of the Allies would result in the collapse of Europe economically and further, cause Bolshevism. It is thought Senator Knox’s peace resolution will be brought up at the special session of the Senate, but that it will be attached to a declaration informing Germany that America still supports the Allies in carrying out the Versailles Treaty. ““Aus.-N.Z.
