ment made between the two coun-

Great Britain and France to avoid
war in 1914. He declared that
Great Britain by her naval, mill
tary and moral effort during the
war, had added an incompatible
chapter to her splendid history. He
praised the work of the British
army and the efforts Of the British
navy, concluding:
The prc-war friendship has
changed into an active alliance,
which will find in the peace negotia-
tions a new utility. We have suf-
fcred together und won together
and are united forever"
King George expressed his great
pleasure in being in Paris, the cap
ital OF the country with which J.,
and his people had shared the mis-
fortunes as we'll as the victories of
war. He recalled the vain efforts
OF the Germans to capture Paris and
the final triumphant campaign of
the allies under the direction of
Marshal Foch. Both nations, he
added, had struggled for civilization
and right and had learned to ap-
preciatc each other and he hoped
that the union of hearts and inter
ests resulting from the war would
always aid to its maintenance.
