training. lie praises Gen. Joffre FOR haV-

their duties and says that such removals

when asked why we were not
comforted by the knowledge that our
chief was following the great military

NJ. Clemenceau continues. II was told
that It was owing to personal con-
siderations.'
The former Premier cites the instance
OF sending NJ. Meseurers Lieutenant son
to Morocco instead Of before a court
martial. because the youth left his regi-
ment without leave to return home to
Paris. His father was a director OF the
