THE ENTENTE.
THE POLICY OF FRANCE. FRIENDSHIP DESIRED. LIBERTY TO ACT ALONE. By Telegraph.—Press Assn.—Copyright. Received June 2, 8.40 p.m. Paris, June 1. M. Poincare (Premier), in the Chamber, reviewed the Genoa Conference. He said that France retained complete liberty of action at The Hague Conference. If America did not attend, The Hague Conference would only partially accomplish its wdrk. Justifying his action to compel the Versailles Treaty to be respected, he said that Mr. Lloyd George did not deny the right of France to act alone. He simply pointed out the dangers of separate action. M. Poincare said he, personally, was determined to do everything to maintain a close solidarity between the Allies, but he could not sacrifice France’s right to make others respect the treaty. Amidst much applause, M. Poincare concluded: “British and French soldiers are lying side by side in death. It would be treason to them to forget the Alliance.”—Aus.-N.Z. Cable Assn.
