CHATEAU BELLEVUE RICH
IN HISTORIC MEMORIES
Place Of Napoleon Ills Surrender In 1870 Saw World
Wars Climax

OF all the chateaux in France. into
whose tapestries the threads of our
history have been woven these last
two years. none Is quite so rich in
its Franco American memories as the
Chateau Bellevue. That is the cen
tury-old, brown lowered house which,
from the high ground just north of
Frencois, looks down across the val
ley on the high spires and red roofs
of Sedan, says Stars and Stripes.
There are others far older. many
far more beautiful hut none is more
crowded with the ghosts of great
hours in the lives of Germany, France
and America, Its walls bore witness
TO the ultimate humiliation OF France
in 1870, a half century later the same
walls saw the dramatic climax Of the
battle which erased that humiliation
from the pages of history.
IT was to the Chateau Bellevue that
Napoleon III, withdrew on Septem Der
/. when, trapped with his army in
Sedan. he gave himself up as a pris-
oner to the victorious Prussians.
There the next day he approved, In
helpless tears, the harsh terms Of the
armistice and there the last emperor
of France surrendered in person to
King William. of Prussia. whose
grandson today is in hiding in Hol-
land.
From The Chateau Bellevue Napol-
con was led away TO Germany, never
again TO SET foot on French soil, for,
after the signing of the treaty of Yer
sailles. he took refuge In England,
where, to this day, his consort the
Empress Eugenie. has remained.
Forty eight years later French and
American officers assembled in that
same chateau in readiness for an
other attack uron Sedan. IT was on
the evening Of Friday. November s.
1918. Sedan had been the reckoning
goal toward which the converging
American divisions had been driving
furiously since the smash OF the Ar
Gonne line a week before Now it has
been decided in the high councils of
war that not American but French
troops should, as a matter of scnti-
ment and ironic Justice, recapture the
city which had so long been by
word of French disaster.
so the American divisions bowed
and stepped aside. but a company of
the brigade that had already csptur-
ed the suburb Of Wadeiincourt---a
company of the l6Sth infantry--re-
ported as guard of honor TO the
French general who would have COM
manded the advance on Sedan had not
the signing of the armisttce suspend
ed the attack.
The Chateau Bellevue was the gen
erals headquarters, and In the dining
hall there, while American patrols

Secretary Baker was asked whether
the war department would make any
formal rejoinder to General Haig and
whether it would not produce records
from British staff officers attesting to
the service rendered by the United
States in winning the war. To these
Inquiries, Secretary Baker replied:
'.Sir Douglas Haig was talking to
his own soldiers and to his own peo-
Iple, Just as all of us at home have our
own first in our minds. The valor and
endurance Of the British in this war
were great beyond praise The Amer

The war department also made pub

don Daily Mail of May 80. In which
tribute to the American forces was
paid in these words.
I'VE shall never forget how in the
dark hours of 1918 they came to our

Former Speaker Champ Clark
made this comment on General Haigs
utterance:
ut takes a great deal, 1t seems to
me, TO create a sense of gratitude in
the minds OF some people"
Senators who were approached on

subject as joke.

Idoes not share this opinion. and not
only differs with the president, but
with Marshal Foch and many of the
other allied commanders.
1t il not the first time that General
Haig has paid the American army the
left handed compliment of ignoring 1t
completely in reviewing the story Of
the war.
In his official report to the British
war office he made no mention what
ever of the American forces except to
note that after the armistice the
American army occupied Coblenz."
