Special from United Press.)

Paris. Jan. 22-''we cannot have peace except with dignity emphati- cally declared Admiral Bienafrne. now a deputy. in a stirring speech on the floor of the chamber, this after noon. His utterances summed up the temper of the French nation over the seizure by Italian warships of two steamers flying the Tr1coleur in the open sea. The forcibIe taking from the Manouba of 29 members of the Turkish Red Cross has inflamed France and it is admitted that. unless these men are released by Italy, ser iouse complications must follow.
 This country must demand repara- tion,'' continued the Admiral, "apd it must be prepared to go to the limit to force Italy to recognize the rights of the French people,
 This belligerent utterance was warm ly appIauded and Premier Poincare. in reply, said that the government req lizes the seriousness of the situation. He said, however, that Italy will con- sent to the release of the Turks and that then all of the other questions growing out of the seizure of the two vessels can be artfbtrated. He stat. e1 that he did not believe Italy would take a stubborn stand which would disturb the cordial relations that now exist between France and Italy,"
