DESCRIBES ARM|ST|CE
SIGNING AS COLDLY POLITE

AMSTERDAM, Nov. 27.-The armi-
stice conference between the German
delegates and Marshal Fooh and his as
s~ociates early this month were carried
out in the most businesslike manner
possible, and apparently without notable
incidents, according to a long account
of the conference given the Berlin Nos-
siche Heitung by a member of the Ger
man party.
After the French met the German
commissioners they were driven for ten
rendezvous. at seemed to me- says
the narrator, that the drive was inten-
t~ionally prolonged in order to carry
us through the devastated provinces and
prepare us for the hardest conditions
which hatred and revenge might de-
mand. One of the Frenchmen pointed
to a heap of ruins, saying Behold St
Quentin
I'VE entered a train with blinds drawn
in the evening and awoke in the morn
ing in the midst of the forest of Com
piegne, surrounded by soldiers.
There were two trains, qAe occupied
by Marshal Foch and his staff and the
other by the Germans. In these we
lived, worked and negotiated for three
days. We had everything in abundance.
There was nothing to find fault with.
The great enrhity and hatred that APP
parently prevailed against us were
shown, however, In the negotiations and
In the terms imposed.
The narrator remarks that the French
| officers and Admiral Wemyss,
British representative, maintained a
| cold attitude, never tempered by a
friendly word"
'Marshal Foch, whom we only saw
| twice, at the beginning and at the end
| of the conference, is a stern, plain man.
