Paris Suspects the British Of Sacri6e
ing the French for Busii-
ness Ends

War and provided herself with an
adequate army, Germany would not
have risked the Belgian gamble,
would not have risked a general
conflict
Instead, the British government
sought friendly understandings with
Germany, resorted TO endless pri-
vate conversations, conducted chiefly
by Lord Haldane, only TO discover in
the events of August, 1914, the abso-
lutte correctness of the French esti-
mate and pay for their earlier mis-
takes by more than half a million of
British lives. But is there any more
certainty that the British are better
Informed now than they were in
1914? And is it not passing strange
that the loudest voices proclaiming
the present British estimate of the
German future are precisely the
voices which denounced all British
preparations before 1914 and turned
upon patriots like Lord Roberts, who
were awake to the truth, storm Of
denunciation and abuse?
But to appeal to past history is
to go beyond the circumstances
which ] have sought to emphasize
The real difficulty in the situation
to-day is the same difficulty which
made the Paris Conference largely a
failure. We and the British in that
conference took one view of the
future, based upon our faith and
fortified by the fact that even if we
were mistaken our blunder could not
lead to immediate invasion of our
territories. The French took an
other view, immensely Influenced by
the fact that the peril of invasion
was unmistakable and the recent
past was filed with the grim conse-
quences Of such an invasion.
honUu inc S1EcIf
Out of -his shock of opposing
views there emerged only moderate
ly viable compromises, which were
themselves contingent upon Anglo
American promises TO support
France. by force of arms, if neces-
sary. But this condition has col
lapsed, the compromises have fallen
with it, and we are again just where
we stood when the President set out
for Paris, so far as the German fact
is concerned. The existence of the
treaty does not much affect the situ
alton, because we insist the treaty
shall be modified, while the French
mean to give it new vitality by the
vigor of the enforcement.
In England and even in Amer
lea the charge is made that the
French are imperialistic. In France
the allegation is heard that both
the British and the Americans are
hypocrltical. The British say that
the French are seeking to take ter
ritory and that behind French de-
mand for the enforcement of the
treaty lies an Interior and miitaris-
tic purpose. But the French say
that behind Anglo-American con-
Germ for humanity lies an anxiety
to make money out of German in
dustry and trade. London says that

A Formal Alliance

In word, the disputes over the
Treaty Of Versailles have revived on
both sides Of the Channel senti-
ments and opinions which We're
only momentarily silenced during
the war and remained in the back

in the heat of the struggle. Thus,

rivalry, mutual distrust have
created in both countries fixed
state Of mind toward the other
which, If not irradicable, constitutes
a factor little less than permanent.
Hence the basis of real coopera-
ton between France and Great
Britain can be found only in some
agreement so definite, so precise
as to leave no opportunity for the
operation of the secular di5trusts
Of both nations. If Britain and
France are to continue to work to-
gether, then there must be pre-
else statement of the obligations
Of each to the othe,. But this means
a definite and formal alliance,
which is exactly tbs thing the pres
ent majority in Great Britain op-
poses and the whole Of France de
mands without any qualification.
The agreement between France
and Britain, signed when the Ger
mans were within sight of Paris in
September, 1914, to make no sepa-
rate peace with the enemy is a fair

lleve, such a policy will stimulate
Prussianism and Bolshevism, be-
tween them there is little to choose
so far rs future peace is concerned.
The French ON their side sec in
the British course the revelation of

eign policies, the peace of Europe,

France sees the British forsaking
their ally and seeking to enter into
new commercial relations With an
enemy Of yesterday, now, SO far as
the British are concerned, incapa-
BILE of aggression, but potentially a
menace to France.
And the more one examines these
two suspicious the more it becomes
manifest that they are not mere de-
velopments Of the moment. On the
contrary, for centuries the tradition
of a militaristic France has sur
vived in England This fact ex-
plains the relative equanimity with
which the British saw the Germans
CRUSH and mutilate France in 1870.
Across the Channel England has al

Unfortunately, these two opposing
views. not absolutely irreconcilable
in themselves, are accentuated by
the mutual suspicious the two ma.
tons harbor concerning each other.
Thus the British believe that under
lying all else in the French attitude
is a desire to seize German terri

THE BRANDING IRON'
 AT STRAND TODAY |S
 WONDERFUL PICTURE

Starting today the engagement of "The Branding Iron," Goldwyn's super feature, the Strand is, again bringing to Phoenix 8 picture that comes direct to the city with the highest recom- mendation of Los Angeles audiences, its engagement at the California thea ter in the coast town having stamped 1t as one of the most powerful produc- tions the Angelenos had seen for many day.
 Produced by Reginald Barker from Kathryn Newlin Burt's sensational story of the same name, "The Brand ing Iron" is the screen presentation of a novel that has proven a record breaker, not only in It's book form, but as a serial, it having been read by mill lions as it appeared in many of the prominent newspapers of the nation.
 Primarily a wonderful love story, The Branding Iron" is likewise a dra- matic sensation. It is a different story than anything ever before seen on the silver sheet and makes it's appeal di- rect to the heart through the tremend- ous situations which the gifted author ess has built into what has been re- viewed as one of the most. forcible themes yet incorporated in a drama oi domestic life.
 The plot sweeps the entire gamut of dramatic possibility. Beginning in the crudeness of the isolated west, it moves rapidly to the very heart of New York four hundred. It involves the pioneers who braved the terrors of the unex- plored country, whose sturdy natures loved for the glory of loving. to place the real test of love in the comparison of those who knew not the intrigues oi civilization with those in whom infat- uation and self advancement and grati- fication were paramount character iSffCa

there is going to be a new matinee idol at the Elks.
 The play is one with an appealing story that holds the interest right up to the final curtain and all the old favorites, Ed Redmond, Bobby Deane, Eddie Young, Jay Allard, Ida Mae Coke, Irene Noblett, Wayne Campbell and James Huges are seen at their best.
 The musical numbers of "Cupid's Prescription" are quite the best that have so far been offered: Eddie Young has prepared some fine Picture" num- bers and all the members will be heard in the latest song successes. Some of them are T Don't Need a Doctor, ' Avalon" "Jazz Baby's Bal" " "The Hen and the Cow" Sweet September" !"
