OF the American senate to ratify the
German treaty has apparently
alarmed the French. 1t seemingly is

so much as the fear the United States
may not ratify the joint agreement
with England for the defence Of
France, which Is uppermost in the
minds OF all French people.

first of all in the saving of troops and

Orders were given for propaganda to
