 FRENCH CITIZENS
Premier Clemenceau Pays Highest Compliment to American Troops Who Display Contempt For Danger.

Paris, Jan. 2.--(By the Associated Press, )--president Poincare today sent the following message to the peo- pie of the United States:
 q thank the Associated Press for giving me the occasion of sending once more to the United s. .tes token of my admiration.
 France is very grateful to the Am erican people for the great part they and freedom in the victories obtained by the allied armies.
 T have several times visited the American troops. l have seen them es- pecially when they liberated St. Mi hiel and when they were fighting be- fore Verdun. 1 have observed their splendid bearing their courage, their high spirits and their smiling con- tempt of danger.
 "l have seen them also in the towns or villages where they had their can tonments. They were much beloved there by the inhabitants. 1 recollect, for instance, that in Nancy the people were deeply touched by the solcitude the American soldiers showed to the children
 Thus, not only between our armies but also between the American troops and French citizens have been formed most intimate relations and ties which will remain indissoluble even after the war.
 Both our nations had already been brought together by the remembrancei of your war for independence-by the similitude of our political anu pupnu institutions, by our democratic tradi- tions and by natural sympath1es and by affinities of mind and cultnre
 "But now we know each other still better. We have lived together; we have defended together the same sac red cause; we together have saved mankind; we are friends forever.
 We arc now tO make use or thfs friendship for settling ill full accord with England and Italy and the other nations which fought at our side a just and lasting peace which shall re- pair injury and spoilation and prevent any offensive turn on tl.e part of the powers of conquest and domination. :
 "I am convinced the unity of feel ing will be complete and continuous between the United States and France during the conference which shortly will be held here i'll order to establ1s" the conditions of peace.
 In sending his greetings to the people of the United States, through the Associated Press today, President Poincare said:
 q am very glad that President Will son will take part in the important work of the peace conference. Francc has full confidence in his enlightened judgment and his lofty conscience She knows the United States Will mol forget the sacrifices she has made. "France is ready to prepare, side by side and in unison with the great SIS ter republic. better and brighter fu' ture for humanity. Raymond Poincare.
