FRANCE DESIRES
 AMERICAS HELP
By GEORGE R. HOLMES.

Washington, April 1-The haze of uncertainty that has surrounded the real purpose of Rene Viviani's mis- sion to the United States has been lifted somewhat by the preliminary conversation which he has had with administration officials and leading United States senators.
 Those who have talked with the e0premier of France have left him with the distinct impression that, re- gardless of what happens to the League of Nations, France wants above all else the assurance of Amer ican support in whatever measures she may feel compelled to take against Germany in the enforcement of the Treaty of Versailles.

WLFE...CETS ALIMONY
  AND. FEES

Poughkeepsie, N. .Y., April 1-Tem- porary alimony of $7,5QO a month, counsel fees of. s35,eO and s12,5OO0 for expenses we're fixed today for Mrs. Anne U- Stillrnan by Supreme Court Justice Joseph {; Morschauser in the suit for divorce instituted against her by James A. Su11man, President of the National City Bank of New York.
 Mrs. Sti1lman had asked alimony of $10,O00 a month and Sf5,000 counsel fees. Justice Morschauser made pub lie his decision after he had trans mitted it to the court clerk at White Plains along with affidavits and pleadings presented in the case.
 In his decision, the justice ruled out of the divorce suit as confiden- tial and privileged the socalled "con- fession" letter written to MT. Still letters alleged to have been written to Mrs. Stillman by Fred Beauvais, an Indian guide who was named in the bankers complaint as co-respon- dent and accused of being the father of Mrs. Shlman, s infant son, Guy.
 The decision set forth that Mrs. SuIlman had pleaded recriminaIions in her. answer to the bankers com wife made charges founded upon an allegation of adultery"
 "A husband or wife is not conpe- tent to testify against the otheF' on such allegations, the decision said. The justice decided that the afhdavits to which the letters were appended contained matters that MT. StiIlman could not testify to and it was upon this ground that the communications were barred.
 Justice Morsohauser pointed out that this inhibition against admitting the alleged messages from BeauvaiS to Mrs. StilImah applied only to the motion under consideration and that they might be offered again in con- nection with later motions.
