FRENCH PRESS SEES
DISAPPOINTMENT IN
CURZON WARNING
Some Consolation, However,
Is Derived From British
Heads Stand.
By Associated Press

bg ASSOCIATED Press.
PARIS, Nov. 25.-General disap-
pointment is registered by the
French press Friday in commenting
upon the luncheon address of Mar
outs Curzon British leader in Lon
don Thursday, in which he was
quoted as criticising Frances iso-
lated and individual policy with ref
erence to matters under discussion
at the Washington conference.
Several OF the papers, however,
brought out the point that there
might be consolation in the fact that
the British foreign secretary was
less Of an optlmist than Lloyd
George concerning the Washington
conference"
The Journal des Debats says.
Lord Curzon claims for England
the right to prevent the building Of
new engines OF war, airplanes and
submarines calculated to para I'VE
her in the future. He should by
reciprocity recognize the right OF
France to guard it's frontiers by the
only means IN its possession" With
reference TO Poland, this newspaper
continues:
Lord CurzOn attributes the sal
vation OF Poland last year 20 the
common action OF the powers. He
forgets that the foreign Office com
pletely abandoned Poland at a criti-
cal moment, recommending that she
accept the conditions Of the soviet
government, which would have
meant capitulation. IF cooperation
must manifest itself the same way IN
the future II was believed but a weak
