BIDS WILSON GO SLOWLY.
Gle cmrnccnu calls Prcsidcnt kmi-
scr's Complainant Listener.


PARIS, May .s.--,;eorges clemenceau
In an editorial headed Errors in optics
argues in connection with the German
peace verbosity and the violent attacks
on Ncrdun. in tho latter of which, he
says. the cost of life Is out OF proportion
to any possible result obta!nable. he
adds that lit Is easily seen that Nerdun
is the cnomy's last effort. his last hope.
and continues
IF "A triumphant entry by some I'M
possibility could BE- made in the battered
remnants OF Nerdun the Wolf Agency
would annouuc. IL as the final victory
and Chancellor Won Bethmann- Hollw. Z
would proclaim that magnanimous hu-
manity inclined him 10 peace protocols.
The kaisci's Childlike diplomacy mas
found a complaisant listener IN rrssi-
dent Wilson while the latter is occupy
ing the Presidency. Mr.. Wilson * can
didate for reelection. His mediation, If
Europe accepted it. would BE- the only
title h. needs, but 1t is difficult to con-
fer upon HIM such a title, for the single
reason that with the ingenuousn-s rs
which houurs him and with the hope,
perhaps foreign TO our land he publicly
proclaimed his offer of Intervention.
Thus. AS any man of common serse
would have foretold his proposition is
received with courteous coolness. Ar
he f,l; the need of explanation OF his
mscalculat.on. for which. like the ma
jorty Of the people. he is unwilling tC
blame himself. he found it simpler &c
condemn vs. as mad. There may b,
madness somewhere in this connection
Events will show, cher Monsieur Il
| President. DO not rush your judg
ment, 80
