nothing of it,
MIR Heney, who made the charge before
the committee Saturday. was nto present
until after MIR Mayer had made his pre-
liminary statement, The telegram from
Mr. Walsh in st. Louis was sent, Mr.
Mayer said, withC@t his request
This is the statement of an honest
man, the witness added, 'in contrast to
this clumsy, transparent, dishonorabe
and unprofessional lie of Mr.. Heney's,'
Mr. Walshs telegram was read as fol-
lows:

MUST KNOW
SHE CANNOT DECEIVE
Is Comment of One French Newspaper in
Commencing Interview Given by
Premier Clemenceau.

Paris, Feb. Commenting upon the
interview given by Premier Clemenceau
to the Associated Press, which occupies
the place of honor in all the Paris news
papers to-day, Alfred Capus, in the
Figaro, says;
with its vigorous and hardy pes
simism it is an act of ardent patriotism.
1t is just the plain language which it is
fitting to talk to France and her allies
at the present moment. France should
be made to recall that her enemy wished
for fifty years to cripple her and has
not given up that design. The allies
must be told that the victory bought
with so much blood and sacrifice will re-
main precarious one if they do not
know how to complete it. Finally, Ger
many must be shown that she can no
longer deceive us and that it is our in
tention to make peace, also, to the fin
ish.'
Premier Clemenceau has never been
more lucid or stronger than in these dec
larations, which will have a considerable
effect"
What Clemenceau Said.
while / have said that the war has
been won, it would perhaps be more
accurate to say that there is a lull in
the storm" said Clemenceau. "At least, "
he added 'it is as we'll to face squarely
all the possibilities
Although Germany had been beaten
militarily and had been largely disarmed,
there still remained, the premier point
ed out, "a chaotic but fruitful Russia
from which great help may be drawn
by the Teutons.' There would be dan
ger, he thought, "of a reopening Of the
military debate" If 1t were not for the
assurance President Wilson had voiced
recently that whether France or any 9th
er free people was menaced the whole
world would be ready to vindicate its
liberty
In the society of nations, said the pre-
mier, each nation must be willing TO re-
nounce its traditional aloofness and be
willing to employ the national strength
outside its own country, both in war
time and in peace.
Premier Clemenceau warmly praised
the help the American troops had given
in winning the war for democracy and
expressed disbelief that there was a man
in the American army of occupation who
regretted that he mad fought on the
side of freedom" because he had found
more creature comforts in Germany than
in France.
