CLEMENCEAU TO RESIGN
WHEN TREATY is FIXED

PARIS, June 24-Premier Cemenceau
has expressed his intention to resign
from office as soon as the treaty is
promulgated, feeling he has accom-
pushed the task for which he assumed
the premiership, says Marcel Hutin ip
the Echo de Paris 1t is expected
parliament will ratify the treaty late
in July.
Work OH the Austrian peace treaty
was resumed by the council of three
today. \ The completion of the docu~
ment td be presented the Austrian dele
gates is desired as speedily as pos
sible and work on It is expected to be
rushed energetically. In this process
financial experts were called before the
council at today's session,
Premier Clemenceau will 60 to Ver-
sailles this morning to make final arr
rangements for the signing of the treaty
with Germany.
In such headlines as "really peace at
last" does the press of Paris express
its relief at the formal end OF the great
war. Editorial writer's embroider their
text with comments In keeping with the
principles profcssed by their resrectlve
newspapers, but none of the writer's
is entirely jubilant. Underlying all the
comment Is the feeling that the task
which lies ahead is almost equal to
that of winning the war.
The task" says Alfred Capus, In
the Figaro. "is not above the strength
of this nation which comes out of the
war with a prestige that remains only
to be converted into prosperity.N
