FRANCE WILL FIGHT
THROUGH TO THE END.
Far From Being Worn or Even Fa-
tigued, Says Speaker at Wash +,
ingtOn Dinner.

Paris, Feb. 22.-The French Govern
ment was represented at the Washing
ton birthday dinner of the American
Club tonight in the person of Rene
Besnard, under Secretary of State. M.
Besnard recalled the words of Wash
ington to Congress in 1889:
"The highest ambition of yer
Americans should be to look beyond
his own Preside, to reflect that his
conduct interests not only himself, his
country.and his posterity, but that it's
influence may extend to the world and
prepare the political happiness or mis-
fortune of generations and of ages to
come
America consequently. said M. Bes-
nard when brought face to face with a
people led by the most monstrous folly
of violence and tyranny the world has
ever known, could not remain for long
a simple spectator. After reviewing
the developments of events connected
with the war and involving the United
States and paying tributes to the in
dividual Americans who had volunteer
ed for service in France with the army
and flying corps, M. Besnard sketched
the present situation Of the French
army, and declared that, far from be-
ing worn out or even fatigued. France
was still ready to go through to the
end.
"It now is thirty months" said he,

formidable adversary any nation ever
encountered, the most formidable war

SEVERE IN GERMANY
icy MORNING JOURNAL SPECIAL LEASED wiRsl


Amsterdam, Nov. 29.-Speaking In
the Prussian lower house today on
food conditions, Herr Won Waldow
president of the German food regula-
ton board, said the German people
still would have to bear many restric-
tions but that an adequate food supply
for the coming year was available.
Considerable supplies of grain for
making bread have been provided by
early threshing. The imperial grain
bureau has already received 1,000,55c
tons as compared with 100000 tons
last year. The potato crop may be
regarded as sfactory-almost as
good a one as we counted on, having
$4,000 tons. Distribution will be
carried out much more efficiently
than in recent years. The same quan-
tity of sugar as formerly can be de-
livered."
Herr Won Waldow said that bread
and potatoes would form the basis of
the food supply.

New York, Nov. 29.-Neither the
high cost of turkey nor the food con-

effect upon the observance of Thanks

was a martial note in the festivities
which has been lacking in other years,
for thousands of soldiers, sailors and
marines were honored guests in
homes, clubs and hotel restaurants. In
fact, so great was the desire to honor
the nations fighting men that there
were not enough of them to go around
and many persons who had extended
invitations had to do without khaki or
blue clad guests.
1t was essentially a soldiers holi-
day and estimates placed the number
of them entertained in the city at 30,-
600. The day began with services in
the churches where heartfelt prayers
for the success and honor of Americas
arms were offered by hundreds of
pastors, priests and ribbis. Then fol-

Probably the highest event of the
day was the dinner and entertainment
given at Madison square Garden by

received a cordial welcome. Scores of
famous actors and musicians provided
