The meeting was at the home of MT. Wilson and lasted just little more than a quarter of an hour.
 NJ. Clemenceau described his visit as one of the utmost cordiality and affection as between old friends add ing that he and the former president had talked a little about old times in Paris and also about the past and the present"
 MT. Wilson made no reference to the purpose of the visit of the former premier of France to America or the subject matter of his addresses in this country, M. Clemenceau continued but smiled and seemed pleased when told that the mention of his name and of the 14 points had elicited more ap- plause from the srench statesmen's audiences than any other one thing.
 The call at the Wilson home was an important incident of day that prived one of the busiest M. Clemen- cean has had since he landed on Am erican shores three weeks ago.
 His activities began with an early morning visit to Arlington National cemetery and ended late tonight with an address to the southern society, in Centennial memorial hall, where a few months ago the treaties negotiat- ed at the arms conference were sign ed. Between times he spoke to Amer ican army officers, most of them over seas veterans, at the war college and made pilgrimage to Mount Vernon.
