BY Universal Service.

American mothers will not send
their boys to fight for France while

This was the answer of Represen-
tative julius Kahn QRepD of Cali
fornia. delivered in the House yes
terday to former Premier Clemen-
ceau's plea for an agreement of the
United States and Great Britain TO
guarantee France against aggres-
sion.
Representative Kahn. who is chair
man of the Military Affairs Commit
tee. recalled that during his visit
to France in 1919, Andrew Tardieu
and other French leaders then urged
upon him their desire for a special
treaty whereby this country and
Great Britain would go to the
rescue of France in the event Of a
German attack. He went on:
l told these gentlemen that in
my opinion the United States
should never enter into such an
agreement: that it had not entered
into an agreement for offensive
and defensive alliance with any
SlIlNt the
Of our Constitution in 1889.
The Frenchman, Representative
Kahn said, then pointed out that
France had only $4,000, 900 people,
while Germany. according to their
figures, had 6S,600.OOO popula ton.
But the California CONGRESSMAN
said:
In 1870 when the war between
France and Germany was fought,
each country had about 10000
900 people. called to their at

Cupied territory of Germany We

/ said to them that the women
of America will have great
deal to say regarding this mat
ter They are now voters of the
United States. They have a voice
in the Government. and if you
intend TO get an agreement of
that kind enacted. the women will
naturally say, "Why should
send my hoy to defend the hound
aries of France. when the French
mother does not raise any boys
to defend that boundary"
said under these circumstances
you will have a very big ques-
ton in the United States to de-
termine.
That, Mr.. Speaker. is the sit
uatiOn. The American mothers
raise their children and are will
ing to allow them to go to the
defense of their country in case
their country gets into trouble.
But as for forming an alliance
with France to send our BOYS to
protect the boundaries of France
because she gets into trouble
with Germany, or any other
country. l doubt whether the
American mothers will be will
ing to agree to any proposition
of that kind.
