said the organization of workmen could
not be held responsible for the action
of anti-patriots who slip in among
them. I'VE are in the presence of a
campaign of perfdy which must not
be misunderstood" cried NJ. Ribot.
Germany has need of peace and she
wants to obtain it by no matter what
means"
She has the hypocricy to say con-
tinued Premier Ribot, that she will
make every effort to obtain an accord
between all nations through an inter-
national tribunal while on the eve of
the war she refused all arbitration
The entire senate applauded and NJ.
Ribot continued
"A durable peace cannot be founded
on militarism. 1t would be a perpetual
menace and the league that has been
formed to make the menace disappear
will not be dissolved unless Germany
abandons it's ideas of domination and
servitude imposed on other nations"

During the debate today the general
policy of the cabinet was brought into
question following consideration of the
French offensive of April Is which has

Similar to Russia

NJ. Clemenceau averred that these
revolutionists had preached the organ
ization in France of a soldiers and
workmen's committee similar to that
in Russia. He attributed rare mani
festations of discomfort to that propa-
ganda and asked why measures had
not been taken to suppress it,
NJ. Malvy replied that he had follow
ed the policy of maintaining the So
called sacred union since the beginning
OF the war and held that if that pol
icy did not offer more heads of Gull
prits it was nevertheless effective. He
said the police were ordered to pursue
every Illicit criminal enterprise but he
did not think the Senate wanted him
to take a hostile attitude toward the
working class.
