CLEMERCEAU'S STAND NOT
SO REMOTE FROM WILSON'S
VIEW OF BRITISH PRESS
Suggest That Any Existing Differ
ences Should Be Arranged With
Pains and Patience.

LONDON, Dec. 3l.-Morning news
papers give equal prominence to the
speech OF Premier Clemonceau before
the French Chamber OF Deputies and
President Wilson's address at Man
caester. BY their comment tho news
papers reveal a certain uneasinoss in
consequence OF the apparent diver
gence between NJ. Clemenceau and
Mr.. Wilson.
There Is an obvious endeavor. how
eyer. to avoid anything suggesting
the existence OF n substantial dis
agreement. or promoting anxiety sre-
earding the conference. Their de-
sire seems mainly 10 show that NJ.
Clemenceau's standpoint Is not so re-
mote from Ar. Wilson's as might ap-
pear at first sight. and that any diff
fcTcBces that exist ought TO he ar
ranged with pains and patience. NJ.
Flelneneeaus version OF Mr.. Wilson &

much prominence.
The Chronicle says; President
Wilson's speech at Manchester

Although hostilities ceased nearly

said indications ore that the de-

That the public has paid only about

Gated by treasury figures OF collcc-

MANCH ESTER. Dec. 3i.--Com-

and urging the necessity Of the as

Would Arraign Her With

Hatred of England.

THE New York EveninR World.


! PARIS. Dec. 31.-Maximilian Har-
den. In an interview with the cor
respondent OF lie Temps. says the
Allies are mistaken in supposing that
/ Germany Is deludod fnto thinking
there has been no military jcteat.
for quite the contrary is true.
what do you think OF the pro-
posal for trial of the ex-Kalscr by
a supreme court OF justlce?" the cor
respondent asked.
1T would be a great mistake for
our Revolutionary Government TO
adopt any course OF that kind" Har-
den replied. "Our authorities should
rather aim at cnlightening the peo-
pie and establishing the truth than Mt
the inniction of chastisement on an
individual.
"lf there were TO be trial the
Empress should be arraigncd with
the Kaiser. for her hatred OF the
English was insane; in her mind
England was populated wholly by
the Hussar Lieutenant tainted with
infantile dementla; and Admiral Won
rirpitz and Falkenhayn and Moltke.
Moltke. however. was the least
culpable OF all, for after the Marno
ho had the courage to say to the
Kaiser: Majesty. the campaign
Is lost and that expression cost him
his post.
81 do not think the Kaiser was d-
rcctly the cause OF the war" Herr
Harden went on, when asked his opin-
ion OF the Emperor's culpabillty. "but
he was largely responsible for II be-
cause at the last moment he could
have prevented the catastrophe and
he had not the courage TO do so.
"old Bismarck said Of him; He
is n man who would love to have each
day an anniversary, a solemn entry,
receptions and professions. and It
would crafty his immense vanity If
he could be regarded as the arbiter
OF the entire world But IL his cul-
pabillty may be difficult to prove. one
truth Is certain: He poisoned the ma
tlon with his ideas and led the people
to believe that Germany could never
have advanced as II did up TO the
time OF the war without him.
In spreading that belief no in
vented a terrible lie. which rang in
all ears and which may be defined by
the phrase: Germany Is menaced.'
That thought accounts for the abso-
lutte lack OF morality which character
lied numerous German acts in the
war.
I'VE have been absolutely defeated"
Harden explaintd. completely beaten
by the superiority OF French strategy
and French generalship. Marshal
Foch as a leader OF armies was far
superior TO Gen. Won Ludendorff, who
was never victorious at the front.
while during the whole war Gen. Won
HndenDurg was nothing but a IA
cade."
