Saws Present Idea Is Fine-FOr

Paris. Feb. IA French semi
official note issued after the meeting
of the conference commission on a So
ciety of nations Wednesday says: H.
ut is reported that a great step was
made toward an agreement, the Amer
lean and British delegates having de-
cided to adopt tie views of France re-
garding the creation of an information
al army and fleet"
Paris, Feb. 13.-The French govern
ment formally presented to the league
of nations commission Wednesday an
article creating an International mill
tary force. The introduction of this
article for inclusion in the society of
nations plan closely follows the dis
closure by Premier Clemenceau in his
recent interview with the Associated
Press of his conviction that the league
of nations must be supported by the
determination of each nation enter
ing into the agreement to be willing
to renounce it's traditional aloofness
from other people and willing to EN-
ploy the national strength outside its
own country, both in time of peace
as well as under the pressure of war"
The contention of Leon Bourgeois,
who presented the article in question,
is that the international force proposed
must be of sufficient proportions to
prevent Germany or any other coun-
try from breaking the peace, or if the
peace were broken, to restore it
promptly again by the collective
power
a Beautiful Experiment.
NJ. Bourgeois, alluding to the ap-
prehension existing in France as re-
i CARDS Germany, insisted that there
was grave danger confronting France
if an international force was not con-
stantly in being and organized for in
slant action. The French view. he
indicated, was that a society of ma
tons which did not include a perma-
nent collective force might be a beau
! tiful experiment, perhaps, but an ex-
+ pertinent too great for a nation to
/ risk, unless it had in addition defen-
| sive frontiers sufficient to meet a sud-
| den shock. 1t was easy for the British
| on the other side of the channel and
: with an enormous navy, or for the
Americans with the ocean as their
| defense frontier. he argued, to regard
| calmly the working of a league which,
! did not provide for an international
! force. France, however. being sepa-
rated from Germany only by a geo
| graphical line must receive the first
| shock if Germany should decide &c
| pass beyond her frontiers
