PARIS. Jan 30,---rhe Paris press is
commenting extensively on President
Wilson's speeches on preparedness, the
text of which has been cabled. The
GduiOiS says;
"President Wilson seeks to destroy the
legend that he is "A partisan of peace

limits fixed by the patience of great

The Petit Parisien says;
THE moderation exercised hitherto ny
President Wilson gives weight to the
speech which he made at the moment

sails which are hardly likely to enoar>

Several papers declare it difficult, If
not impossible. to regulate the conditions
of naval warfare in the middle OF tho
war and lay stress on the difficulty Of
submarines insurlng safety to passen-
gers. The GdulOis says;
THE American note to the belligerents
implies the recognition OF the right to
use submarines against neutral ships"
The Journal des Debdts withholds de-
tailed discussion Of the American memo
randum until the full text has been re-
ceived, but says:
"The regulations for merchant ships,
although perfectly reasonable. are prac-
tically unavoidable. Tho memorandum
recognizes the implicitly Of the right OF
submarines to sink harmless merchant
