Williams, it should be stated, recent
~ made a bitter attack on the premier
for reticonce in stating Eugland's
aims.
While the French press. Judging
from dispatches here, is more enthu-
siastic than even the British newspa-
pers over the Address, taking the view
that Lloyd Georges reference to
France implies support of the demand
for return of both Alsace and Lorraine,
there was disposition here to regard
his language as indicating instead that
| Britain intends to see complete justice
DONE"
In that phrase many regard the
British statesman as demanding resto-
ration of all of Alsace cut only part OF
Lorraine.
Before the joint statement there was
belief here that every one of the al
lied premiers would outline his par
ticular nations views--the preliminary
fire for the general political offensise
which would be directed against Ger
many from every quarter.

statement of war aims would later
widen into an impossible breach.
